#### ❤️ Support My Work The Guide is and will always remain free, though creating and maintaining it takes an enormous amount of time and energy. The Guide is currently over 240,000 words with a research, writing, editing, and design team of one. If I didn’t need your help, this page would not exist! The Guide can’t *really* work without you. If everyone who reads the Guide were to donate even $1 per month, it would be self-sustaining overnight. So whether it’s a one-time or recurring donation of any amount, your reciprocity both sustains me and helps me feel seen and appreciated for my work. Right now, it’ll also help me with housing, accessing therapeutic support, and preventing burnout, which would significantly improve my quality-of-life. Your support also allows me to commit more time and care to expanding and improving the Guide, and the work I’m aspiring to do in my local community. I can offer more when I have more. Guide updates are published slowly, but worked on consistently — often daily. Please consider sharing the Guide with people you feel could use it. The Guide doesn’t have a social media algorithm to help get it to people — you are needed and appreciated! > [!INFO] Donations > [Patreon](https://patreon.com/IntegralGuide) | [BuyMeACoffee](https://www.buymeacoffee.com/integralguide) | [Stripe](https://buy.stripe.com/5kA6rY40L7nAgXScMM) | [PayPal](https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=DQ34XLS4EV8XQ) > > ###### Thank you for helping me > > ✨= current monthly contributor > > Alana Marcher, Aletheia Wildwood, Ali Bahcecioglu, Amber Wilson, Amy T, Ann Garvey, Andy Drier, Annecy Baez, Aram, Ashleigh, Ashley Darby, ✨Auca Maillot, ✨Avi C., ✨Barfly, ✨big_smoke cic, Brian L, ✨Bridgett 💚, Bryan Drewery, Bryce B, Carolina Moscoso, catkins54, Charise Lincoln, Chris Hall, Chris Trani, Christina Medlin, Christopher Gagne, Claire, ✨Clay Eckman, ✨C Id, Colin Snyder, collectivematter, Conin McMahon, ✨Cory King, Dana, Damee Song, David Brena, David Sinclair, Debra Schanilec, ✨Deidra S, Dena M Vangelisti, Dennis Steyvon, drowner, Dylan K, Ellen Evers, Emily Armstead, ✨Emy SoRelle, Evelyn Matson, Felissa Rubin, @feral_tsubasa, Fizaa Luthra, florafaunatic, ✨George Akhobadzé, @ghostiewm, u/greenjuicegirl, Heather Smith, J.
