Gifting At The End of the Program
One key principle of the gift economy is that you cannot know the true value of what you have received until after you have received it. As such, there will be an opportunity at the end of the program to offer a gift to the facilitators in exchange for organizing and facilitating the experience. Any additional amount that feels reflective of the value you received from the experience and is accessible to your current financial circumstances is appropriate. If paying for just the costs of the retreat is appropriate to your financial situation, that is welcomed as well. These gifts will allow ResInnate Yoga & Permaculture to continue to offer and expand these retreats, and anything that is given is received in deep gratitude.
Included excursions
You will be going on a half-day hike nearby where you can practice yoga, swim, and relax in nature.
