Vinyasa Earth Volunteering Program

Become Part of the Earth: Volunteer at Vinyasa
Where the Rajasthan sun paints the sky at dawn, birdsong fills the air, and every hand shapes a sanctuary for art, earth, and kinship. Here, you don’t just volunteer, you become part of a living tapestry. You’re not a tourist here – you’re home. At Vinyasa Earth, we don’t just live on the land; we live with it. And we’d love for you to join us.
This is volunteering that feeds your soul:
Whether you’re digging your hands into soil, sharing stories in a community circle, or helping an artist find their voice, you’re not just “helping out.” You’re becoming part of a living dream built on community, creativity, and deep reverence for this earth. Your hands, your heart, your presence, they matter here. You’ll gain practical skills while making a tangible difference.
Our Vision: Art, Earth & Belonging
To cultivate a space where art, community, and nature converge.
This is a place where creativity isn’t a performance — it’s a practice. Mud walls hold space for movement, words, colour, and sound, and many artists have led their first-ever workshops right here with us.
We also offer affordable stays for creative folks seeking a nurturing space to explore their craft, because we believe that everyone deserves the chance to create, share, and grow.
🌱 We live with the land.
From growing our food, making compost, and planting trees with purpose, every action is intentional. Solar panels and rainwater systems are on the way, but the shift has already begun, one footprint, one saved raindrop at a time.

This is more than a place to volunteer. It’s a space to pause, reconnect, and contribute to a growing ecosystem built on trust, beauty, and belonging.
🌧️ This monsoon, we’re planting 100+ trees.
If your hands are ready to dig in and your heart is looking to root into something real, July is your season.
Our Mission
To nurture a mindful community rooted in simplicity, creativity, and mutual support.
hrough our volunteer program, we welcome individuals to bring their gifts, in art, design, gardening, storytelling, cooking, photography, and more, and weave them into daily life at Vinyasa. In return, you’ll gain skills, rhythms, and a deeper understanding of what it means to live with the land, not just on it.
Whether you’re tending to the garden, helping host an artist’s workshop, or sharing quiet moments after dinner, your presence here makes a difference.
This is intentional living in action — where your time, energy, and heart find a place to belong.

Living Gently Together: Our Shared Promise
At Vinyasa, we don’t have “rules.” We have promises to each other and the land:
- Breathe Mindfully: Be present – in work, rest, and connection.
- Keep it Clear: Our space is free of alcohol, smoking, and drugs.
- Cherish Our Home: Tidy shared spaces, handle tools with love, leave beauty wherever you go.
- Honour Quiet: After 10 PM, we wrap the land in stillness. Mornings are for soft footsteps and inner journeys.
- Shared Responsibilities: Everyone chips in – gardening, chores, welcoming guests. These rhythms bind us.
- Kindness is Sacred: To people, animals, plants, and yourself. Judgment stays at the gate.
- Speak Your Heart: Founder Sankalp and our core Vinyasa team are always here, ears and hearts open.
We gently hold these promises sacred. If they’re not honoured, we may need to part ways for the community’s well-being.

Wondering About Something? We’ve Got You.
Can international volunteers apply for the Deep Roots (3+ months) program?
Yes! If you’re committing to 3+ months, we’re happy to waive the daily contribution in exchange for a deeper skill-based engagement. This includes roles like content, social media, photography, or helping with events and guest experiences. Just share your interest when you apply.
Do I need prior experience to volunteer?
Not at all. Come with curiosity, commitment, and a willingness to learn. Whether you’re new to gardening or community living, there’s a space here for you.
What’s the accommodation like?
Volunteers stay in our community dorms, simple, cosy, and rooted in nature. It’s shared living with shared care: you’ll help keep the space clean, beautiful, and welcoming for everyone.
Can I volunteer as an artist and also help with other tasks?
Absolutely. Many artist-volunteers contribute creatively while also joining in daily rhythms — from cooking to composting. It’s all part of co-creating this living space.
Is there Wi-Fi or a mobile network at Vinyasa?
Yes, we have 5G Fibre Wi-Fi and mobile network access (Jio and Airtel work best). But many volunteers use this time to unplug, slow down, and reconnect with themselves.
I have dietary preferences — will that be okay?
We serve fresh, home-cooked vegetarian meals. If you have specific needs or allergies, just let us know. We’ll do our best to support you.
Still have questions?
We’re here — ears and hearts open.
