Life in the Community
 

Food 

At breakfast and dinner we open the table with a few words of gratitude before we eat.

Resident from the village will lead the opening.

Lunch is free to help yourself to as soon as it is served. 

There is water & herbal teas provided all day long for you to enjoy at any time.

All of our meals are home-cooked, nutritious and 100% vegan,gluten/additives /preservations/emulsifier free.

There is a washing up area to clean up our own dishes and teacups. 
It would be helpful to know if you are not dining with us for any meals so that we can reduce the quantity we cook and save on waste.

Please let reception know. 

Friendly Neighbours of All Shapes and Sizes
As we are located at the end of the beach,nestled into the edge of the jungle surrounded by nature, we do have some friendly neighbours visit us in the village from time to time: monkeys, lizards, frogs, critters, crows and many other friendly sentient beings.  

This means we like to take extra precautions including replacing the covers on the food if you are the last person in the queue, not taking in or storing any food in the huts, including wrapped/sealed snacks etc, and practicing ahimsa (non-violence) towards all other living beings.

We respect the surrounding nature and all the additional occasional guests that come in or near the village :) 

 

Intoxicants & Non Veg 
There is to be no association with smoking, alcohol or meat inside the village, although you are free to do as you wish on the other side of the river.

But please leave it there before you return! 

Accommodation
The hut community is naturally made and closely placed together so, please keep quiet after 9.30pm, especially when returning to the village, and tread lightly in the shared rooms. Your friendly village folk will appreciate these things. 

Pillows and bed linen are provided, as are blankets if you need them, a towel (not for beach use), a mosquito net and a locker.  

Bring a lock with you to be safe and tuck away your precious items.

It will be your responsibility to keep your accommodation clean and tidy during your stay. Bed linen and towels are changed a maximum of once per week upon request (sheets may be provided so you can do your own bit of karma yoga :)).

We ask that no village items are taken out of the village. 

 

WIFi

we have a Mindful wifi Hours for 2 hours a day only as we want you to be present fully here mentally and physically .our wifi is good for general communication & emailing but it still can be inconsistent.it may not support heavy video calling or uploading and downloading so request you to be using it mindfully 

 

Electricity 

we have a electricity but it can also be inconsistent  at our location as its right in the nature by the beach &  time to time we face shortage of it

welcome to India :)

If you require any help with your stay  we recommend letting reception know as soon as possible so we have time to try and resolve the issue as the works might not get actioned on a Saturday when reception is closed. Please be patient with us - we will do our best to get it fixed within 24 hours. 

The bathrooms are open roofed for star gazing at night, so don't be alarmed if you have a little animal friend joining you. Some shower taps have a leaver in the middle which you need to turn either left or right for the water to flow. If you turn it to the left the lower tap will flow and to the right will be the overhead shower. 

​

Remember to turn the lights and fans off when they are not being used and keep the plastic to a minimum by bringing a re-useable drinking bottle with you.

There are no laundry facilities provided in the village but there are several inexpensive and reliable laundry services just a short walk along the beach.

Sharing & Caring 

Earth yoga village is the place to form a family of like-minded people to progress towards the path of living the life you love and loving the life you live. It is a community where everyone is encouraged to share and support each other on their spiritual journey.

 

Going gets joyful when community is there standing by each other in this material world where sometime it is difficult to find like-minded people but with the support of each other we can continue our practice and walking on the path.

 

And at Earth Yoga Village you will find that community just happens when all the right energy comes together. The Facebook Earth Yoga Village Community Group is one of the platforms where we encourage people to be engaged in sharing and supporting each other mindfully.

 

So lets support and share with each other whatever and all that we can. It may be by motivating each other through digital mediums or checking in on each other from time to time, perhaps visiting each other when visiting their town and offering a couch to sleep on and, of course, doing some practice together!  

 

As a community we believe in standing by each other at all times, to love and be loved in the true sense, extending our hands wherever it is needed within the community.
