Ayni a Quechua word meaning the law of giving and receiving. Give with your heart, regardless of any perception of scarcity, and blessings will return to you, from unexpected directions. When the doors to giving and receiving are both wide open, abundance will flow endlessly both ways.

Our Values reflect a profound understanding of the interconnectedness between individuals, communities, and the natural world and serve as a solid foundation.

​

Honesty: This principle emphasizes the importance of authenticity and self-awareness. By reflecting on our motivations, clarifying our intentions, and speaking our truth, we hold ourselves accountable and cultivate integrity in our actions.

​

Trust: Trusting in the flow of life and surrendering to grace allows us to embrace the present moment fully. By accepting and allowing things to unfold as they are meant to, we align with the natural order of things and find peace in trusting the process.

​

Respect: We honour the land, each other, and the spaces we share. Through consideration, kindness, and mindful adherence to established boundaries and practices, we support the wellbeing of all life and the protection of natural ecosystems.

​

Contribution: Following our joy and bringing love and presence to everything we do whilst in service enables us to make a positive impact. By leaving things better than we found them and recognizing that every bit helps, we contribute to the well-being of ourselves, others, and the world around us.

​

Freedom: This principle reminds us that we always have a choice and that our perceptions shape our reality. By taking responsibility for our thoughts and actions, we empower ourselves to create the life we desire and embrace the boundless possibilities that exist.

​

Reverence: Reverence for all life and honouring divine order instils a deep respect for the interconnectedness of all beings. By walking the beauty way and respecting and honouring nature, we cultivate a sense of awe and gratitude for the world around us.

​

Preservation: Preservation embraces the care and stewardship of nature, oneself, community connections, and cultural diversity. By valuing and nurturing these aspects of life, we help ensure the health, sustainability, and vitality of the world for present and future generations.​

​

Community Connection: We foster intergenerational, cross-cultural, and nature-based learning that nurtures belonging, emotional wellbeing, reconciliation, and guardianship of the Earth. We create spaces that strengthen community, unity, and shared purpose.

​

Respectful Learning & Cultural Integrity: We engage with Elders, Knowledge Holders, and Indigenous communities with humility, curiosity, and openness, listening to learn and celebrate their wisdom. We honour cultural knowledge by sharing it with permission and proper attribution, supporting the ongoing vitality, dignity, and respect of these teachings.​
