Program Details

Our sanctuary is located in the heart of nature, featuring a traditional Trentino-style house renovated with sustainable bio-architecture 🏡. We are an association dedicated to the study and practice of Tibetan Buddhism and other spiritual paths that promote peace, compassion, and the development of human potential.

Our daily life is infused with mindfulness. Whether we are caring for the organic garden or preparing the meditation halls, we do so with an attitude of service and presence. This is an ideal place for those seeking a quiet environment to reflect, learn about Buddhist psychology, and contribute to a project that values ethics and environmental sensitivity🕊️.

We welcome only female volunteers who wish to stay for at least two weeks to truly immerse themselves in this unique atmosphere of silence and growth.
