Oru Vaaram
VANAVASAM
A week of living, learning, and creating in the forest valley.
Who are we inviting?
This week invites parents and children to come live with us, as part of a rhythm where learning, work, play and silence weave together. It is for those standing at the crossroads, wondering how to nurture their child’s spirit without losing their own; for those seeking ways of living beyond the noise of systems and cities.
How is the week going to flow?
Mornings begin with breathing, movement, or quiet time by the stream. The days flow through shared living creating art, tending to soil and animals, walking through the forest, dipping in waterfalls, playing, cooking nourishing meals and gathering in dialogues that explore new ways of learning and living. As the evenings settle, we gather by the fire with music, film, and watching stars keeping company in their calm, glowing way.
Who are the facilitators?
Each member of Urvi carries a lifetime of experience and a deep wish to share. Among us lives, a visionary, seekers, farmers, teachers, artists, builders, chefs and engineers, each reimagining and rebuilding life in the valley. Together we hold this space for parents and children with warmth, openness and the joy of discovery.
The week will be guided by many hands and hearts offering spaces for art, craft, song, food, deep reflection, open heart conversations, daily work and a way of living well together.
We will co-create a week that :
-
Nurtures both inner growth and the unfolding of each individual’s innate potential.
-
Allows space for leisure and reflection, essential for creative and intellectual exploration.
-
Fosters a close, living relationship between all the community members, parents and children, where all learn, share, and live together as one family.
If you feel called to reimagine what learning, teaching, and living can mean, come spend a week in the valley to touch a way of being that is simple, free and creative.
