An Opportunity to Live and Work at the Hermitage
The Hermitage is looking to recruit a temporary Resident Volunteer to support our activities for the Sangha.
The Hermitage is the retreat centre of the Awakened Heart Sangha and the home of Lama Shenpen. We are located on the edge of beautiful Snowdonia in North Wales and just a few miles from beautiful beaches and mountain walks.
For some years we have encouraged committed Sangha members to help us run the Hermitage while at the same time deepening their meditation practice, engaging with our course and retreats and making a connection with Lama Shenpen.
The role typically involves:
- A 6 month commitment (shorter periods negotiable).
- Taking part in our daily pujas and meditation sessions (7 days per week) about 21 hours per week on average.
- Engaging in work as practice (this can include gardening, cleaning, cooking, decorating) 20 hours per week over 5 days.
- Resident volunteers enjoy free participation in all events run at the Hermitage (providing they meet practice requirements).
- A private room & vegetarian food is included.
We have availability for volunteers from July 2023 onwards.
