Work involves organizing warehouses, storage areas, tools and various materials, including moving heavy objects and construction materials. It is essential to have physical strength and endurance, willingness to perform manual labor, initiative, autonomy and ability to find practical solutions. Part of the work will be done outdoors.
In addition to organization, part of the activities will be dedicated to land work, including planting, pruning, composting, preparing beds and maintaining green areas. Eventually, there may be opportunities to participate in bioconstruction projects, depending on current needs.
What we offer:
An enriching cultural exchange experience at our beautiful healing center, surrounded by the Atlantic Forest, with plenty of free time to enjoy nature and the tranquility of Munay, as well as opportunities to learn and exchange experiences with our family. Sometimes we organize herbal baths or sharing circles.
Schedules and shifts
5 hours per day, 5 days a week, usually from 8am to 1pm, Monday to Friday.
The schedules are flexible and may be adjusted depending on weather conditions and the needs of the work. It is important that the volunteer has some flexibility for shift changes previously arranged.
Food
Breakfast is often prepared collectively at our house. When this is not possible, we leave the ingredients for you to prepare your own breakfast in the volunteers' kitchen.
When possible, we also arrange a group picnic with the family on weekends.
What to bring:
Bed linens: blanket, sheet and pillowcase. We do not accept sleeping bags. Pillows are provided.
Personal hygiene items and a bath towel.
Resistant and suitable clothes for heavy work, which may get dirty — we are at the site!
Closed and sturdy footwear, suitable for physical activities and outdoor work.
Food for your other meals. You will have a full kitchen available.
Location and transport
We are located 10 km from downtown Juquitiba, in the middle of nature. We offer a ride from Juquitiba town center to Munay.
Munay is, first and foremost, a healing space dedicated to well-being, nature and a more conscious life. To preserve this atmosphere, we ask all volunteers to respect some important agreements:
Alcohol, drugs and tobacco: It is strictly forbidden to consume alcoholic beverages, recreational drugs (including cannabis) or to smoke anywhere on the property during the stay.
Food: We follow a vegetarian diet, prioritizing fresh, natural and minimally processed foods.
Music and silence: We value peace and quiet. Loud music is not allowed. We prefer the sounds of birds and nature, though we also love to share music, traditional chants, instruments and musical circles.
Visitors: External visitors are not allowed.
Shared spaces: We ask everyone to keep communal areas clean and organized and to treat the property, nature and people with care and respect.
We warmly welcome people who truly identify with this way of life and appreciate Munay's tranquil and welcoming atmosphere.
