I have so much gratitude to Carlos, ekharte & all of the Ashram family. My experience was changed slightly when I was hit by a car in the 2nd week. The care, the patience, the flexibility. Everything about my time there during what was quite an emotional, transformative experience was everything & more I could have asked for. In regards to the actual volunteering (although in the end I didn't get to do that much) everything was great, the work, the meals, the space. Thank you Ashram 🙏🙏

The Ashram is a very tranquil place to reconnect with yourself and nature. The work was simple, although at times quite hard working in the heat, and the working hours were as advertised. Nico, Ekajati and Carlos were all friendly and welcoming and it was lovely spending time with the kittens and Kala, the dog :) the yoga classes were great and I had lots of time to myself after finishing the work in the morning.

The experience was amazing, I didn't feel it like volunteering, although I worked reaaally hard, but with the earth, it feels different, it gives you time to connect with yourself and the element 🌏. Is basically a retreat experience, where you have lots of spaces in the middle of the nature to meditate and reconnect with yourself . easy to arrive, very safe place, not far from chichen itza and valladolid.

The Ashram is a nice place to get in touch with nature and yourself. The tasks were diversified - gardening, handymen tasks, also cleaning to take care of the place, where we were living. There is a lot of time after work and weekends for visiting great places, fortunately but also unfortunately the Ashram is really offgrid, so there is no supermarket next to. Ekajati cooked well and healthy after work, breakfast and dinner and weekends cooking is by yourself. Unfortunately our spanish isnt good yet, but Carlos and Ekajati discussed important things also in english. Thanks for the experience!

The three week experience was good. Ekajati, who took care of us, is a friendly person who shared the tasks and cooked very well after work. Mainly I installed paths in the jungle, which was quite a hard job because of the high temperatures. The place is lovely, but for completeness it's also very outside of Valladolid and villages. Nethertheless I would come back so thanks for the time.

The ashram is very beautiful and has all the comforts, with expansive gardens and walking paths. The pool is delicious, and what I mean is that if you are a light sleeper I recommend bringing earplugs because it is very close to the road, and also a pillow since they are very hard and tall. Ram (Carlos) was very kind and taught me to play the quartz gong, and his talks calm and guide you. The work is hard and varied; going less than a week would be ideal. Regarding yoga, for a moment I thought it was daily to change habits and learn, but there are only two days in the morning, Friday and Saturday, the one that offers yoga Ekajaki

Mi experiencia en el centro fue increíblemente enriquecedora. El lugar es un oasis de paz, ideal para recargar energía y reconectar contigo mismo. El trabajo fue variado y gratificante, con objetivos claros y siempre el apoyo del maestro Carlos. Aunque exigente por el calor de la zona, cada tarea valió la pena y con la recompensa en las tardes de alberca. La comida ayurvédica de la maestra Itza fue deliciosa. Las clases de yoga ayudaron a mi crecimiento físico y espiritual. Agradezco esta oportunidad y a todos los que habitan este magnifico espacio. ¡Gracias por esta experiencia única!

Es mi primer voluntariado y la experiencia fue increíble. El trabajo en el Asram me permitió conectarme con la naturaleza y desarrollar una conexión más cercana a ella. Las horas y el horario de trabajo son adecuadas, algo cansadas en algún momento pero satisfactorias. Te brindan las herramientas necesarias para realizar el trabajo y se me hizo muy bonito que el maestro te permita en algún momento crear áreas nuevas y abrir caminos. La comida que cocina la maestra es DELICIOSA. Los maestros son unas personas muy agradables. GRACIAS A AMBOS. 🙏

El trabajo aunque duro por el contexto del sitio me gustó mucho porque el contacto con la naturaleza fue real Fue bueno vivir las experiencias que ofrece la naturaleza Me alegró conocer nuevos lugares y personas locales de los alrededores No es fácil salir del Ashram pero con paciencia se logra Recomendaría al Anfitrión que las personas que colaboran con él de manera permanente estén en sintonía con el respeto y convivencia que solicita a los voluntarios, que lo que publica en su perfil sobre alimentos sea lo que realmente ofrece, y abrirse positivamente a los comentarios ajenos
