Dragonfly Healing Retreat is evolving, opening and expanding all the time. Many of the projects we want to complete require human contributions of labour and time. We invite individuals who may be unable to pay for a weekend stay to exchange their time and skills.
Karma Yoga involves selfless service without expectation of monetary gain. This type of work exchange is also called Seva. Volunteers would agree to participate in a specific activity or project in return for free weekend accommodation at the retreat.
We do reserve the right to deny a volunteer if we feel that they are not emotionally, spiritually or physically healthy, but will try to fit a project to any individual’s skill and ability if they are sincere about partaking in a karma yoga exchange.
Projects could include site maintenance such as weeding the herb garden, mowing around the labyrinth, or stacking firewood. Other projects such as building or repairing cabins, creating sculpture for the walking trail, painting outdoor privies, or a project suggested by the karma yoga guest that utilizes their particular skill.
In order to make a contribution, we ask that Karma Yoga participants stay at Dragonfly for a minimum of 2 days and a maximum of 2 weeks. Time for work and time for personal retreat will be scheduled upon arrival and participants will have plenty of time to meditate, relax and recharge.
