A Week of Ahimsa: Yoga, Awareness & Community

Join us at Shanti Lake for a transformative week dedicated to the art of living together. We invite you into a welcoming, intimate, and collaborative sanctuary, a space free of judgment where the heart can truly open.

This is more than a retreat; it is a living laboratory for Ahimsa (the practice of non-harming). We extend this compassion toward animals, the earth, and one another. Whether you are lifelong vegan, simply curious, or a seeker of community, you are welcome exactly as you are. There is nothing to change and nothing to prepare—just bring your presence.

The Heart of our Week

  • Nourish: Enjoy vibrant, organic plant-based feasts prepared with love.

  • Awaken: Daily Yoga, Pranayama, and meditation to ground your energy.

  • Connect: Explore Nonviolent Communication (NVC) through playful, heart-opening games and honest sharing circles.

  • Celebrate: Gather for Kirtan, song circles, and evening ceremonies under the stars.

  • Collaborate: A unique “Gift Sharing” format where you can offer your own skills and passions to the group.

  • Restore: Deep rest and silent nature walks by the lake.
