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.

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.

The Center is a true gem. The property transports you to a whole new world, truly one of the most beautiful places I've had the privilege of visiting. The night sky here is unreal. I was originally supposed to stay for two weeks but that turned into a month. All of the staff are wonderful and really make you feel welcome. The hours for work are respected and reasonable, also offering flexibility. the Center, between the staff, volunteers, and residents, left a lasting impression on me and I hope to be back soon. Highly recommend this place for tranquillity away from the city-life. 💚

I truly had the most amazing time at the Center. It took a couple of days to settle in, but once I did it was nothing short of amazing. The location and nature is just breathtakingly beautiful - the only way I can describe it is super grounding. I fell in love with the community at the Center, the volunteers and the residents are uniquely beautiful in their own way! The work was super chill. I actually really enjoyed being outside and doing gardening and cleaning when it needed to be done. There's such a great work rest balance with a lot of free time to explore

Is an absolute privilege to be part of this loving community. There are around 8 volunteers at all time and another handful of residents staying in the premise so is very easy to find company in this place wonderfully secluded in the middle of the forest Things to have in mind: There is wifi in just two places (any in the residential facilities) and is far from the city the Center, kind of hard to reach Great place to bond with other people and enjoy simple life of dwell in the natural beauties that surround the premise (less than an hour to reach the beach and 30 min to a the Center waterfall)
