the sanctuary

Energetically the sanctuary has many aspects. Whether you are a group participant or casual guest, take time to explore the herb and fruit tree garden, watch the sun and shadow play, spend time in the yoga room, make friends with other guests, watch the birds interacting, or soak up the casual atmosphere and simply relax, being by yourself.

We provide this peaceful sanctuary for your enjoyment, so please ask if you require assistance.
