Finding Your Land: A Workbook for Calling in the Land for Your New Earth Community

When I was 12, I stood in front of fields my ancestors once owned in Coates, North Carolina, and I knew land was my birthright. It took me 20 years to buy my first parcel, because I believed I needed a pile of cash and perfect credit.

I was wrong. I bought my first 5 acres with owner financing and partners. Then I found 43 acres near Mt. Shasta through a TikTok post and bought it with a bank statement loan. That land is now Aina-Ra, a spiritually based community held by our church.

Finding Your Land is the workbook I wish I’d had. It walks you through both halves of the journey:

The inner work

• Creating the energetic space for land to reveal itself
• Turning your desire into a vision clear enough to recognize when it appears

The practical path

• Financing paths most people never hear about: owner financing, partners, and bank statement loans
• Protecting everyone with written partner agreements
• Ownership vs. stewardship: churches, trusts, LLCs, co-ops, and more
• Where to find land, including social media and motivated sellers
• A due diligence checklist covering zoning, water, toxic industry, local politics, and how strictly rules are enforced

What’s inside

• 32-page printable PDF (US Letter)
• 18 worksheets, checklists, and fill-in tables
• A land spec sheet to compare listings against
• A 30-day action plan
• Notes pages for your search

This workbook is for you if you dream of land for an intentional community, retreat center, or spiritual home, and you’ve been waiting until you have “enough” to begin.
