The land of the Center is deeply healing, and brings many things to the surface. The wind and nature surrounding us felt like a warm green hug. Community healing and camaraderie is deeply present, and especially felt over mealtimes and staff weekends. I loved taking part in the yoga and meditation sessions, and the staff led workshops. There is an expanse of knowledge to absorb from the leaders/permanent staff, fellow volunteers and the bookshelf! Deeply grateful for the healing that took place here, both within myself, and that I had the pleasure to help facilitate for the guests! ONSV🙏

Volunteering at the Center was an unforgettable experience, and I couldn't be more grateful for the opportunity. From the very beginning, I felt embraced by the warmth and kindness of everyone here. The people truly made me feel like part of the family, and I left with a deep sense of belonging. I loved managing the social media and teaching yoga in the beautiful temple it was an absolute privilege to share those moments with the community. Learning about the garden and cooking meals for the staff are times I will always treasure. The safety, love, and respect I felt here was beautiful.

Absolutely amazing experience! So peaceful, harmony place. The tasks are easy and schedule is provided before week starts, but you always can offer your extra help, and it s pleasure to help in this place. As well you teach a lot about gardening, detox, healthy life, awakening. That's place and environment it is like a gift and i wish everyone once to come to this blessing place. Away from city, but on day offs they offer car to go to center (20 mins only). You can also at your free time to join meditation and yoga or therapy. Healthy food, healthy environment, happy soul. Thank you!

I had a good experience at the Center. Everyone is very welcoming and we had a great bunch of people working together. Enjoyed the time in the garden and helping with the retreat. It's great that you can try the different therapies as well. It would be good to have an organised yoga/meditation for the volunteers every day. I met with great people and feel greatful for their shared wisdom and caring. Highly recommend.
