Detalhes
Descrição
We are a non-profit, volunteer-operated spiritual retreat centre, where the retreats are facilitated by the enthusiastic work of people dedicated to providing a holistic experience for every visitor.
We welcome volunteers in a variety of areas and aim to place them in a role that utilises their strengths and stimulates personal growth.
Volunteers help with the general maintenance of the centre such as working in the organic market gardens, helping with the cows, assisting in our vegan/vegetarian kitchen as well as general housekeeping and maintenance.
We provide basic yet clean and comfortable accommodation and supply vegan/vegetarian supplies for your cooking everyday. We encourage volunteers who are able to conduct workshops to apply as we are always committed to developing our volunteer program.
You are welcome to take advantage of exploring the local environment, learn from our spiritual community and participate in certain retreat programs (ie, yoga) as individual leaders allow.
We offer both short and long term stays for enthusiastic volunteers, with a review after the first week.
Please tell us a bit more about yourself and your skills and interests when writing an application so that we may accomodate you and your needs to the best of our ability.Tipos de ajuda e oportunidades de aprendizado

Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado
Our principles are based upon the practice of an ‘ahimsa’ (non violent) lifestyle and natural living.
We host travellers from across the globe throughout the year as a part of our karma yoga program. Over the years, our volunteers have had the opportunity to immerse themselves in our natural environment while learning more about organic living and our spiritual lifestyle.
Volunteers have the opportunity to learn and grow from activities including meditation, organic farming, working with the cows, growing Ayurvedic herbs and preparing delicious vegan/vegetarian meals.
We offer an environment which allows for self development in every individual.Ajuda
We welcome volunteers in a variety of areas and aim to place you in a role that utilises your strengths and stimulates personal growth. Because we operate both a retreat centre and organic garden, volunteer positions are available in every aspect of service, from helping in the kitchen to working in the garden.

We stayed here for a bit more than 3 weeks and then another 2 days where they very kindly took us back. The time here we spent was such an amazing experience, where we were able to learn quite a bit about Indian food and different ways of life.

I spent about a month here. They accepted me last minute when another workaway fell through, and I'm so glad it ended up that way. I absolutely loved my stay here. It's not an understatement when I say I don't have any ill words to say about this place.
The work was very varied. One day you'll be picking plums the next you're… read more

I stayed for a week at the Valley, under the wing of Andy, Mani & Kesheva and his family. I was able to assist with the centre in a variety of ways which helped to keep the week varied and interesting.

She is competent and enthusiastic to assist in any way possible.
She is a great asset to any Workaway project and has a friendly and cooperative personality.
She is welcome to stay with us anytime.
It is a peaceful, quiet and spacious place, far away from the hustle and bustle of the cities. It is a perfect place to retreat. I spent a lot of time meditating and reading.
It is only a 30-minute drive to the ocean. If you have a car or can get a lift by the residents, it is a perfect cool down on… read more
I stayed when black clouds of covid virus hanging above and bringing rain with thunders. And that was rather blessing for me to being 'stock' here where the valley was always covered with reflections of sun in this dark time in the 'outside' world.
