higher mindfulness club isn’t just a 6-month program; it’s an initiative designed to:
strengthen the higher scene and empower more individuals go higher.
If funding is secured, from May to October, higher mindfulness club will offer 24 weeks of free weekly meetings that connect individuals, cultivate emotional resilience, and introduce people to the higher community.
Through weekly practice and meaningful conversation, regular participants will build stronger bonds with one another and contribute to the well-being and vitality of the entire scene.
Sessions would occur twice, each Sunday, at 9am and 5pm UTC, accounting for timezone differences and opening attendance to global participation.
In addition, every participant will be rewarded, receiving $5 worth of HIGHER on their first visit - with additional rewards for continued participation.
[Using cbw to onboard, google forms to collect wallets/attendance, disperse to distribute HIGHER, and commit to incentivise continued participation. lmk, if you know a more elegant solution]
a shared practice: Weekly, guided mindfulness practices will empower participants to stay centred and cultivate mental clarity irrespective of market conditions. By practicing together for 30 minutes at the beginning of every session, individuals contribute to a strengthening of collective resolve, as well as benefiting from the practice as an anchor for their personal growth.
making connections: The second half of each session offers spaces for conversation. In breakout rooms, participants can discuss their experiences, share insights, and collaborate on personal and collective intentions. This regular contact allows members to forge deep, lasting connections and contribute to the health of the scene. It’s an opportunity to find support, inspiration, and collaboration from others going higher.
expanding the network: Every new participant will be rewarded with HIGHER, with special rewards reserved for those who make successful referrals, as well as those who attend in 8 or more weeks. This incentivises both onboarding and continued involvement, helping to spread the ethos of higher to those who are ready to live life with collaboration, emotional resilience, and innovative thinking as part of their regular schedule.
emotional resilience for living higher: higher mindfulness club distributes practices and techniques for cultivating resilience and strength of mind, helping participants to stay grounded and clear-headed despite market fluctuations. By cultivating this resilience, we align with higher as a mindset - one that allows us to navigate life with balance, poise, and creativity, rather than reacting impulsively to factors like token price action.
Dedication to higher mindfulness club won’t go unrewarded. Firstly, all first-time attendees are rewarded with $5 of HIGHER. Secondly, all attendees that participate in at least 8 weeks of the programme will receive an equal share of 400,000 HIGHER, or $3200 (approximate at the time of writing) via commit.wtf. Finally, 100,000 HIGHER of rewards will be split between those who successfully refer two people to club (also via commit.wtf).
This design incentivises both onboarding and continued involvement, helping to spread the ethos of higher to those who are ready to bring more mindfulness, emotional resilience, and innovative thinking into their weekly routines - those who resonate with living higher.
To make higher mindfulness club a sustainable, impactful initiative, I’m seeking funding from the Higher Party in the form of ETH and HIGHER.
These funds will cover:
Expanding the club’s reach and inviting more participants into the community.
Time, expertise, and resources needed to host weekly sessions over the course of four months.
Operational costs inclusive of distributing rewards and ensuring a smooth experience for members.
5 ETH is requested so that I can sustain higher mindfulness club for 6 months.
An additional 0.5 ETH could be allocated to support a trip to Farcon NYC, where I’ll offer mindfulness in-person and engage with both the wider farcaster network as well as potential new members, further expanding the reach of higher mindfulness club and inviting more people to experience the benefits of mindfulness and the higher scene, firsthand.
For attendance and referral rewards 1,000,000 HIGHER will cover:
500,000 HIGHER ($5 of HIGHER for 800 persons) who attend their first session (more people if HIGHER rises in price)
400,000 HIGHER split between those who attend in at least 8 out of 24 weeks.
100,000 HIGHER split between those who refer at least 2 people.
In total, if fully funded, 5.5 ETH and 1,000,000 HIGHER. Any additional funding received from the party or elsewhere can be used to extend the initiative, increase rewards, and further spend on promoting the club.
wide distribution: higher mindfulness club would be a globally accessible initiative distributing the idea of higher as a lifestyle - a lifestyle based on mental wellbeing, emotional resilience, and innovative thinking.
collaboration and innovation: Through regular conversation, participants would have the chance to learn about higher, collaborate with others, exchange ideas, and spark innovation that benefits the entire scene.
mindfulness for emotional resilience: Attendees would learn practices and techniques that empower them to navigate life with clarity, flexibility, and resilience, no matter what challenges arise.
higher mindfulness club as a public good: higher mindfulness club would provide accessible tools for mental clarity and emotional regulation in turbulent times, in addition to strengthen existing bonds within the higher scene as well as attracting new members to engage in what higher as a lifestyle can be.
My name is John, I first entered the HIGHER ecosystem via purchase of the token on March 10th 2024 and I have been a contributor to the scene through conversation, the creation of memes, music, both, and /openair.
I have trained as a mindfulness meditation teacher twice, once through Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach's MMTCP, and again through Dharma Moon and Tibet House's MMTT led by David Nichtern, investing thousands of dollars and over two years of my life.
I have also been practicing mindfulness meditation for nearly a decade.
In the past, I've moderated large communities for projects such as Forgotten Runes Wizards Cult.
At the moment, I'm building Beings Club.
higher mindfulness club represents my most recent thinking on how communities can remain healthy in combination with improvements upon my intentions with openair.
higher mindfulness club is more than just a program - it’s a catalyst for transformation, both individually and throughout the greater higher scene. By practicing mindfulness, connecting with others, and cultivating emotional resilience, we can create an ecosystem that elevates everyone who gets involved.
I am a member of the higher network and I have deep expertise and experience in practicing and teaching mindfulness meditation, as well as managing online community.
As of the time of writing there is a proposal to withdraw accumulated fees from a party LP to support - please consider voting.

this week i wrote a proposal for /higher: https://paragraph.xyz/@spacetobe.xyz/higher-mindfulness-club-1
hey @dwr.eth @ted @jessepollak I have a plan to onboard to @base, by giving away $higher, and inviting newcomers to be in community where /higher on @warpcast is central. As a bonus, we’ll be distributing a non-dogmatic mental wellbeing practice at the same time so that people don’t get rekt by the emotional rollercoaster that is volatile markets. there’s the potential for a positive-sum collab here. shall we chat?
