    Description

    A few years ago we had the impulse to create a space for the common good in the Sierras de Minas, Uruguay, in a place of uncontaminated nature and great beauty.

    We have a beautiful hall where we meet for different activities: meditation, yoga, talks, interesting films, music ...
    The energy of the place puts us in touch with Real Life, its rhythms and silences.
    A grain of sand to create a new world.

    Hace pocos años tuvimos el impulso de crear un espacio para el bien común en las Sierras de Minas, Uruguay, en un lugar de naturaleza incontaminada y gran belleza.

    Tenemos un hermoso salón donde nos reunimos para distintas actividades: meditación, yoga, charlas, películas interesantes, música…
    La energía del lugar nos pone en contacto con la Vida Real, sus ritmos y silencios.
    Un granito de arena para crear un mundo nuevo.
