The Experience

Sacred Earth is a community of like-minded individuals, living life more connected to self, nature and others. We offer classes of yoga/meditation and events that encourage people to return and connect more deeply to themselves. Our volunteers play a crucial role in maintaining our spaces. Karma Yoga, or the yoga of action, focuses on performing tasks with awareness, care, and love, aiming for the greater good rather than personal gain.

Living with people from so many countries was great; it's wonderful to learn from everyone. Watching the sunsets from the temple definitely became my favorite activity of the afternoon. Kelly was very kind and friendly. It was a fantastic experience, completely connected with nature.

I spent a month at the Center and had a wonderful experience! The property is huge and surrounded by nature. Us volunteers only work 3 days a week and it's manly cleaning or gardening. What made this place so special and magical are the volunteers I shared this experience with, as we spent our days off together exploring the stunning area ;) Management and communication from the hosts/owners could be improved - being flexible is essential.

My time here as a volunteer has been wonderful, I have had the opportunity to meet and work with many amazing people from across the globe. Cam, Kelly and Sam have been fantastic and welcoming. The work is very good in comparison to other volunteer placements in New Zealand. The landscape and local area is beyond stunning. To anyone wanting to spend some time in the north island bush I recommend highly. My only complaint is that pickup of new volunteers should be regular, not occasional, as the Center is not on any public transport links and taxis are expensive. Cheers everyone at the Center

The Center was a great experience for me! I really enjoyed the diversity of the community and the volunteers i had the opportunity to engage with. It was a welcoming environment and i feel we got along well. The work schedule was adhered to and the tasks were upkeep of the area and facilities. Three days on four days off. Completely reasonable for the exchange. I loved that they put you on a task and leave you to do it on your own. No micro managing. If you stay here i would recommend that you stay flexible and take initiative. I highly recommend this stay. Would like to have extended mine.

I had a great stay in the Center! We were a nice group of volunteers. The tasks were mainly gardening and cleaning. And the location is immersed in amazing nature! Close to the ocean and to many waterfalls.
