Former Karma Yogis talk about the program…
“I enjoyed being in a supportive space with people who are also seeking a more spiritual path in life, and a better understanding of self, and that this search is integrated into all aspects of one’s life.” ~ Margaret McCutcheon, 2009 KYSS Participant & 2010 Seasonal Karma Yogi
“I learned that what could be tedious work, when done instead with an attitude of service, is totally transformed into a gift of love. Everything has changed for me with this insight…Thank you for the opportunity to share and learn and grow in such a beautiful environment of love, spirit and peace. I feel so blessed to have been a part of this Centre and I look forward to coming back!” ~ Chrystel Vultier, Canmore, AB – 2009 KYSS Participant
“The Centre holds a space to allow transformation to happen. It’s a wonderful, nurturing, peaceful place where I had a lot of fun and formed wonderful friendships in the process. I worked mostly in the garden and the kitchen. Everywhere you look in the garden there are beautiful flowers and veggies growing – and meals are prepared with love, beauty and intention, and served mindfully with care to people who come to the Centre.” ~ Lauren Riley, Nanaimo, BC – 2008 KYSS Participant, 2009/10 Seasonal Karma Yogi
“I spent four months in the KYSS program last year (2008). I had come to the Centre to experience living in community, living and working on the land and to explore what it really meant to be of selfless service. Within days of my arrival I could feel the city energy leaving my body and I became more and more calm. I made several trips back to Vancouver during my stay and I found that I could bring the calmness of the Centre to the city with me. I enjoyed my time so much that I am back again this year for the season.” ~ Daniel Shevchuk, Vancouver, BC – 2008 KYSS Participant, 2009/10 Seasonal Karma Yogi
“The centre combines my love of gardening, meditation and yoga – and surrounds it with beautiful and fun people.” ~ Yoni Merion, Israel – 2008 KYSS Participant, 2009/10 Seasonal Garden Yogi
