Hi

Hi All,

So I am having a bit of a spiritual breakthrough of late. It feels good to be in a forum. My mediation practice has been going really well after many years of struggle.

The main thing I am looking for is a place where I could live and where I could spend my days studying meditation and yoga. It sounds like a fantasy but the question is if there are places one can volunteer or do work exchange?

I am in the South West for now but things are totally flexible when it comes to location. I am living out of my backpack and at a cool hostel for now.

I am not even sure if I want to focus on mediation or on my yoga practice but if folks have experience-info about the above it would be great to get folks thoughts.

namaste,
Gideon

In the spirit of community and to support students becoming Yoga Teachers many studios offer work exchange programs and scholarship programs for students in training.

Here is a link to one up here in the North Country, I don’t mind posting since it is not about profit but exchange: http://www.pranashanti.com/training/programs
It may be out of your range, but I find that making oneself aware of opportunities, and options, increases these very same opportunities and options. Look around your region or range and who knows what may reveal itself? Good luck with and peace be your journey.

?Remember what Bilbo used to say: It’s a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don’t keep your feet, there’s no knowing where you might be swept off to.?

Boy that is a great quote from Tolkien.
