Vision
THIS IS HOW I WANT TO LIVE
OPEN HEART,
OPEN MIND
The key is in the heart. By feeling safe and supported to maintain an open heart, we are free to explore new and ancient ideas, deeper relationships, and opportunities for growth. Together we explore life, essence, experiences, and the meaning of love as a way of life. A simple and true love that embodies acceptance, peace, courage, and joy.
Natural Living
A return to balance is a return to nature. We allow our bodies to feel the natural flow and pace of a peaceful atmosphere. We nourish our bodies with natural and plant based cuisine made from local ingredients. We cultivate livelihood and growth with supportive practices such as yoga, meditation, detoxing, music, and more. And we live in harmony with an enriching and de-stressing environment with many different plants, flowers, and trees.
COMMUNITY
The most impactful and radical idea behind Wonderland is that of community. A beautiful blending of cultures, skills, passions, and life experiences. We live and create in the same space, sharing our lives, our ideas, our joys and our struggles. The community has very few guiding ideas, and even less rules. The values rest on seeing each person as a free and independent individual, that is responsible for his or her own life and decisions. Together we meet to create deep, meaningful, and authentic connections between friends who ultimately become our family. Our tribe.
WONDERLAND HEALING CENTER
The community’s first major project was Wonderland Healing Center - a temporary or permanent home for those seeking to immerse themselves in the Wonderland community values. Since January 2017, the Center has welcomed over 10,000 friends and guests from around the world, who have joined the community, side by side, sharing meals, classes, ideas, and experiences. Guests are invited into the lives and lifestyle of the community, to experience for themselves, even if just for a short time, the possibilities of living differently. For many of Wonderland’s guests, this is the beginning of a beautiful journey of self discovery.
All temporary and permanent residents of Wonderland enjoy a range of wellness activities and classes, relaxing and rejuvenating facilities and treatments, and a delicious vegan buffet.
SUPPORTING THE CHANGE
The Wonderland community supports additional programs, people, and groups dedicated to raising their quality of life and working to support others. We provide scholarships to Wonderland activities, support the wider Koh Phangan community, and guide programs online and around the world. Wonderland has co-created several lasting and significant programs to support others, including the Inner Walk Center (www.innerwalk.org) and Academy of the Obvious (academyoftheobvious.com).
THE TRIBE IS EXPANDING
From the very beginning, Wonderland has remained open and welcoming. Wide open.
Throughout the journey of building, rebuilding, and constantly improving the physical space, the ideals and values, the additional projects and the programs and content, Wonderland always cultivated space for newcomers, friends, visitors, and guests from all over the world. Our own families have been growing as well, welcoming the next generation to the tribe! These blessings have given birth to the next big project on the Wonderland horizon.
WONDERVILLAGE
The embodiment of a dream.
A group of people who share the aspiration for living in a community with sustainable values and a healthy lifestyle have come together after years of shared living and co-creating to build their sanctuary. The location was carefully selected in a secluded area of Koh Phangan, surrounded by luscious green jungle and beautiful plants and animals in their natural habitat. By building WonderVillage from scratch, we will cultivate the space and the environment to encompass and embrace the ideas of natural living, an open heart, and a lively community lifestyle.
