Homeless by Design: Daisy the Venice Healer Moves into Pop-Up Home on Venice Beach

On Monday, August 19, 2024, Daisy, known as the Venice Healer, officially embraced a new chapter as she settled into her popup tent home on Venice Beach. After her recent stint in jail, Daisy chose to leave her apartment and live closer to nature, which she believes is essential for "global liberation."

Daisy enthusiastically shared details of her new setup with Santa Monica Closeup. "I moved to the beach for the global liberation," she declared, showing off her minimal possessions and an innovative compost toilet. "It's only for ninjas because you've got to use some quads to operate it," she explained, highlighting her commitment to an eco-friendly lifestyle.

Her new residence, referred to as the Healing Arts Dojo, is not just a living space but a hub for community and environmental activism. Daisy explained her vision of a more connected and sustainable way of living, drawing parallels between human and ecological health. "Imagine if we just don't know what it's like to have watering holes and waterfalls, and what if the organs of Gaia Earth are as sacred as our organs?" she pondered.

Reflecting on her recent legal troubles, Daisy remained optimistic and used the experience to reinforce her advocacy for peace and sustainability. "We are ready; we've come of age," she stated, emphasizing a shift towards a society that values love and minimal use of force and control.

Despite the challenges of adjusting to outdoor living, including a mishap with sprinklers that soaked her belongings, Daisy is undeterred. She described a night spent drying off at a friend's place, only to return to her tent with renewed determination. "I'm serious, I don't have a phone right now, I'm not going to get a phone because I've been doing too much market economy. I need to be right here in Venice, going to my court dates," she asserted.

Daisy also discussed plans to protect her new home from potential city enforcement actions, which often target homeless encampments in late-night operations. "We're going to sleep next to Starbucks, that whole building Snapchat empty, so it's like this is my slot," she revealed her strategy for staying one step ahead of city officials.

Throughout the interview, Daisy remained a figure of resilience and hope, her spirit undampened by her circumstances. "This is where I'm dropping the love atomic bomb to go around the whole wide world, using the most amount of love and care and the least amount of force and control," she concluded, ready to continue her mission of healing and unity from her new beachfront abode.
