Krissy Tulip Ever felt that special buzz of being a part of something bigger? We live for that. We believe in the power of true community. It’s not just some abstract fluffy idea; it’s a lifeline.
Did you know that strong social connections can lengthen your lifespan as much as quitting smoking?
But it’s not just about living longer. It’s about living better. Being connected releases oxytocin which helps reduce depression, anxiety, and stress. It also gives us a sense of purpose and belonging, Increasing our overall happiness and satisfaction in life.
This is why we emphasize community so much at the Black Jade Society. It's incredibly important, especially since there's a significant lack of spaces in the modern world to make such connections. Many people end up in mainstream or religious communities because they can't find anything else. We've welcomed so many members who have experienced religious trauma and struggled to break away because of community ties. They are relieved to find a safe, inclusive, and diverse space here where they can connect with like-minded souls without the pressure to conform to religious beliefs.
Our meet-ups, whether in person or online, are all about bringing people together. We’re creating spaces where everyone feels part of something bigger, making us all healthier and happier.
