🌿 A day to connect, breathe, move & recharge – PRISM Pilot Workshop 💚

On 24 October, we came together at Ananda Gaorii for a day of connection, movement, relaxation and shared experiences as part of the PRISM – Pathways to Resilience Erasmus+ project.

It was a lovely opportunity to bring people together, get to know each other and explore simple activities that can support our well-being and help us feel more connected.
Throughout the day, we tried different activities, from yoga, meditation, breathing exercises and self-massage to group games, metaphor cards and creative exercises. We also spent time outdoors, exploring new ways to experience nature through activities like the blindfolded nature walk 🌳

Some activities were especially meaningful for participants. The Metaphor Mirrors encouraged imagination, self-expression and deeper connections, while the self-massage practices offered moments to slow down and release stress.

But perhaps the most important part was the atmosphere we created together: a space where people could feel welcome, accepted and comfortable being themselves.

Here’s what some participants shared afterwards:

💬 “It made me feel connected to the other participants and also very safe to be myself.”
💬 “How profound the metaphor mirrors exercise was and how it helped us connect with each other.”
💬 “How much of a positive impact the various types of self-massage practices helped relieve my stress.”

And we were especially happy to see that all 11 participants said they would use the activities again and expressed interest in joining another workshop! 💚

A big thank you to everyone who joined us, shared their energy and helped make this day special. Your experiences and feedback are an important part of developing the PRISM methodology, which will be shared and explored in other European contexts.

Because sometimes, feeling at home starts with a simple moment of connection. 🌱

Autumn harvest 🙂🧡🍁🍎

02/08/2026

“Alone we go slow, together we go fast and further.” This was the topic of last week and the best way to prove it was by following it and working together 🧡

And yes we did!
So much was achieved this week and we are so proud of it 🙂

In the kitchen garden we have planted some zucchini plants, kale, celery and sown some herbs, in a few weeks we will have food straight from the garden.
In the educational garden work is still on going and new paths are emerging, thanks to the help of our powerful girls!

The grass has been cut in the orchard and in the backyard, it looks so beautiful 🙂

The kitchen full of life as always and Dada Marma sharing his knowledge with those who come to help cooking.

We said hellos and goodbyes, appreciating all the work and energy people put into our project 🙏🏻

Lastly and most importantly: our everyday spiritual practices, it’s soooo amazing to be part of such a flow and to experience kiirtan and meditation surrounded by many people.
Growing together 🧡

A look back at our week:

Some of the volunteers were preparing camping gear and gathering materials needed for Prout Convention that will take place in Avnø Ecovillage, starting on the 18th of July.
A big truck was loaded and it’s on its way to the venue.

Even though we haven’t been focussed much on the garden in the past months, we have now our dear brother Arjuna who will give some love to it, together with some new volunteers we have welcomed this week.

Dada Rucitananda was very happy this week for the help he got with the construction work, we want Dada happy!

And it’s always beautiful to find these green corners around Ananda Gaorii, places that inspire us to find peace within.

PRISM LTTA in Romania – Learning Together, Growing Stronger! 🇷🇴✨

From 22–26 June 2025, the partners of the PRISM – Pathways to Resilience project gathered in the beautiful mountain town of Bușteni, Romania, for an inspiring Learning, Teaching and Training Activity (LTTA) dedicated to strengthening resilience, wellbeing, inclusion, and environmental awareness through nature-based education.

Hosted by AMURTEL Romania, the training brought together educators and facilitators from our four partner organisations:
🍃 AMURTEL Romania - Coordinator
🧘 Ananda Marga Denmark
🌳 EcoAtivo Portugal
🌱 Meditation Steps Germany

Throughout five enriching days, participants experienced and practiced a wide range of methodologies that can be transferred into youth work, adult education, and community initiatives.

🌿 Highlights of the LTTA included:
✅ Building safe, welcoming and trauma-informed learning environments.
✅ Experiencing the Interconnected Web exercise to explore group dynamics and facilitation.
✅ Learning principles of inclusive group facilitation and participatory education.
✅ Practising resilience-building activities such as the Cup Metaphor, Resiliency Popcorn, and grounding exercises.
✅ Nature-based mindfulness through silent contemplative walks and multisensory sound journeys.
✅ Outdoor meditation techniques and practical guidance for facilitating meditation in natural settings.
✅ Hiking to a mountain waterfall while exploring adaptability and experiential outdoor learning.
✅ Creating beautiful Forest Mandalas using natural materials.
✅ Participating in the Spiral Walk and the powerful Council of All Beings, fostering ecological awareness and empathy.
✅ Reflective exercises including Metaphor Mirrors, collective drawing, and group reflection circles.
✅ Sharing experiences, exchanging good practices, and strengthening cooperation among partners.

Despite a rainy hiking day, participants embraced every moment as an opportunity to learn about resilience, flexibility, and the healing power of nature. The natural surroundings of the Bucegi Mountains provided the perfect environment to reconnect with ourselves, with each other, and with the wider ecosystem 🌊🌿🌞
