Can I attend for just one or two days?

Yes of course. Please indicate which days you will be here when you register; this helps us to plan for meals.

What facilities does the Farm have?

The Hare Krishna Nurturing Soul Community Farm is a living working farm, with farm animals, a milking cow, a massive barn and indoor fire. There are three toilets and showers.

What is Karma Yoga?

Karma Yoga is the practice of yoga in action. In this instance, it will be in service of helping out on Winter Yin Yoga Sound Journey weekend, such as food prep and dishes. Bringing Karma Yoga into the program allows for us to co-create the event, keep costs down for you, and for you to bring an attitude of awareness and mindfulness to every day tasks. It is a very empowering practice.

Karma Yoga will be done after meals, and before the next workshop. There will be a whiteboard of tasks that you can sign up for.

Sevaka & Cam will be the Karma Yogis in charge; they have an eye and heart for what needs to be done to co-create exactly what is needed.

Who is the Hare Krishna Nurturing Soul Community?

Nurturing Soul Community is around an hour south of Hastings, New Zealand.

This community is creating a 'back-to-basics' livelihood, growing food and creating a sanctuary for all people. The host James & Cecelia had a vision to retire their now ex-dairy-farm into an Ahimsa (non-violent) cow sanctuary & create a space for people to practice authentic spirituality.
