Following a successful retreat season, we are expanding the center by acquiring the neighboring property, with partner Lisa Ishwari Murphy - Sva Ha Academy. The intention is to host Heaven on Earth Retreats™ and add a number of wellness amenities to the property - boardwalk to the beach, oceanside event space, sauna, stargazing dome, and compostable toilet. We are raising $50,000 to help facilitate this vision.
