L'esperienza

We are a small modern monastery and a meditation & retreat center located near Hamburg, Germany. The center provides an environment to meditate, go inwards, calm down, and reconnect with oneself. It is a place of stillness and peace, and perfectly suited for experienced meditators who might enjoy the natural surrounding.

We need your help for administration work. Everyone in the house also needs to do a little bit of cleaning/housekeeping.

Dettagli del programma

This center is dedicated to spiritual practice and retreat.
If you volunteer with us, this should be your longing and you main purpose for visiting (apart from the volunteer work).

We are two permanent residents and offer three private guestrooms in our meditation center.

People visiting the house have reported the following learnings from the stay with us:
- establishing a daily meditation routine,
- experiencing inner peace & stillness,
- deepening of spiritual understanding,
- inner transformations on many levels,
- visions/ideas and energy to proceed with own new projects.

We will support you in this respect.

You need to have your own practices and topics that you want to work or focus on during you stay with us. Otherwise you will be bored quickly. Beginners on the spiritual path were oftentimes not happy here, as we just "live" a deep spiritual focus that has elements of monastic life.

Attività e turni

We need your help with administration, setting up online profiles, and other office work.

Expected help hours:
25 hours/week for free accommodation and organic vegetarian food (self-catering from the kitchen storage).

Work starts daily at 9.30 a.m.

Every resident and volunteer is required to help a little with cleaning (during the work hours).

The longer you stay with us the more responsibility will be given to you - if you like.

There are morning and evening group meditations, and most of the time all residents, guests and volunteers participate in these meditations. You should only apply if you would - in general - like to join these meditations.

Regole

We only plan ahead for the respective next two months. Please, do not contact us earlier than two months prior to your proposed arrival date.

You are welcome as a volunteer if you ...
1. are longing for a retreat period to focus on your spiritual practices - for example meditation, contemplation, praying, deep bodywork, relaxation techniques, long walks in nature, dream work, certain kinds of reading, etc.
If you do not long for such activities or if you have other main purposes in your free time - like digital work, sightseeing, etc. - we are not the right place for you.
(Some people depend on music, singing, dancing or intense bodywork as their way of reconnecting. Our place is not suited for these needs, as our center is having a different focus.)
2. like to meditate with us, twice daily,
3. like to pay attention to detail and precision in your work and beyond,
4. would like to reduce your digital media intake to what is necessary, during your stay with us,
5. are 'experienced' on the spiritual path: You have your own spiritual practice and MUST have been on a spiritual retreat at some other place before,
6. don't use intoxicants while you stay with us. We also do not take volunteer who are on pharmaceutical drugs or have an active mental condition, as either can impede your spiritual retreat or lead to unforeseen effects during a spiritual retreat with us.

We do not provide insurance. We recommend you have your own travel health insurance that covers volunteer work (e.g. www.worldnomads.com).
