  Beschreibung

  Dear community of work awayers,
  
  Season 2024/2025 is starting in November and we are looking for volunteers (help exchange for food and accommodation in tents) for our new retreat and healing center project called "Vision of the Heart". More infos on our YouTube Channel and
  
  
  
  As a volunteer you will help 5 hours a day, 5 days a week. There will be 3 vegan meals a day served and in your free time you can participate in Wim Hof Breathwork and Ice Bath sessions, Yoga, Meditation, Cacao Heart Circles and Singing circles, if they are offered at the time of your stay. This always depends on the facilitators on site.
  
  What we are currently looking for
  
  1) Accomodation Services / Reception / Guest Service
  
  So you love to be a host? Do you love to receive guests? Have you maybe even worked in hotels/hostels before? You will have a role with a lot of responsibility, making sure our guests have a beautiful welcome and feel we care about them.
  
  Minimum Stay: 3 months, we prefer applications that are able to commit for 6 months.
  
  2) Healing Facilitator
  
  We are also looking for a Yoga and Meditation teachers, massage therapists, trauma therapists and different kinds of holistic healing practitioner to care about our guests. 2 months minimum commitment.
  
  X) General Assistance
  
  We are always happy if have volunteers that feel inspired to work with our Mexican chef in training, Lorena. Ideally you bring some experience in vegan restaurants or have been a chef in the past. The role implies checking on water supply, emptying compost, taking care of the compost and many other tasks to help our retreat center crew and our chef Lorena.
  
  The retreat center is being built on a 1000 acres property in the most beautiful Oaxacan Jungle just 2 hours from Mazunte. There are fruit trees, Cacao trees, clean fresh water sources, a river and the most beautiful views of the jungle mountain surroundings. It feels like garden eden.
  
  Our Vision is to create a space for healing, community and reconnection with nature. In this first phase of our project we will offer a space for guests to deeply connect with nature and retreat isolated in the Oaxacan Jungle.
  We are planning to live completely off the product of our land, this we are yet to set up.
  The land is ideal for individual meditation or/and fasting retreats.
  
  We are planning to have a community of healing practitioners on site to offer a variety of alternative healing modalities.
  
  As of now we have offered:
  
  Yoga and Meditation (Teacher on site)
  
  Breathwork and Ice Baths (Facilitator on site)
  
  Cacao Ceremonies (Regularly available)
  
  Temazcales (sometimes available)
  
  For our volunteers we are offering cacao heart circles, to tune in with each other.
  
  If you feel the calling to live deeply immersed in nature, have a hands-on mentality and would like to contribute to this vision in at least 2 of the listed needs - this might be your place to volunteer!
  
  The land is vegan, non-alcohol/drugs and a no loud music environment (except if there is an ecstatic dance, during the day).
  
  We are located in the area of Pluma Hidalgo, just 2 hours from Mazunte and 1 hour from Huatulco airport (daily connections from Mexico City airport).
  
  The street that leads to the finca, may or may not be affected, depending on the amount of rain at the time of your volunteering request.
  If you plan to come with your own vehicle (non 4x4) , please inform us beforehand!
  
  We ask volunteers to bring their own tents, if that is not possible we can supply you with a tent and equipment. For people commiting long term and workin in the reception we provide accomodation in the main house or one of our Cabanas.
  
  No pets allowed!
  
  For your application please answer the following questions:
  
  What is your intention to offer your support to our beautiful project?
  
  How can you contribute to this project? Do you have special skills and some skills we are looking for?
  
  Are you comfortable with living in a tent for a month?
  
  What is your spiritual practice?
  
  What is your experience living in conscious communities?
  
  Thanks for your interest!
  
  With Love
  
  Vision of the Heart Team

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  You can learn about the cultivation of Cacao and Cafe and learn to build with natural materials like bamboo. Also its a very beautiful farming community living on the land and there is a lot of interest (especially the kids) for learning English. There is very little English spoken in the farming community so excellent preconditions to learn to speak Spanish.
