The experience

Our space focuses on awakening consciousness through meditation retreats, mindfulness, yoga, satsangs, and other practices.
We are seeking volunteers who are interested in exchanging their skills for our purposes and outlook on life. If you feel that this could be a path to this deeper understanding, you are very welcome! We remind you that every volunteer is gifted with a completely free retreat during this period. With love, Ameeta.
