Xandia Story
Regenerating the world, one mind, body and community at a time.
Philosophy
In a world of increasing polarity, Xandia offers the promise of belonging and balance. We are co-creating a global collection of communities where people come together to connect, create and grow. Places where we feel welcome and even total strangers feel connected. Places that regenerate our minds, bodies and spirits, while we share a deeper sense of purpose.
Global Collective
As part of our global collective, members can move seamlessly between our different regenerative communities around the world. Whether you seek the rolling oak forests of the Algarve or Pacific ocean views from the Costa Rican coast, Xandia provides a network of interconnected communities designed for mindful living.
