Join meditation & permaculture guides Vishwam & Robert with other kind men to reconnect with our own true nature. 

These times are calling for change. Change not just in what we are doing, but also in our way of being. Old habits are holding us back from really thriving. Together, we can support and inspire each other to live and work together in harmony. The course includes inspiration from permaculture design and heart meditation to help us relate better with ourselves, each other and the whole of nature.

“And now here is my secret,
a very simple secret:
It is only with the heart
that one can see rightly;
what is essentially
invisible to the eye.”

~ Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
