La Vie Est Belle is a community karma school for people to

experience the outer and inner nature through experiential activities:

​

  meditation,

  yoga,

  nature immersion,

  transforming art creation,

  leading a sharing simple life.


We have daily activities and monthly retreats/courses and teacher training relating to the concept.


Karma School is a “small school of selfless service”, an experiment in the joy of giving. With volunteers, we created an ecosystem of generosity-projects that move from transaction to trust, from self-oriented isolation to shared commitment, and from fear of scarcity to celebration of abundance. All volunteers-run, our projects create external change while keeping the focus on inner transformation.

La Vie Est Belle offers guests a stay as a real gift of happiness, nutrition and well-being. To complete the full circle of giving and maintaining this experience, the guests bring a contribution at will basing on the value received and financial capability, a minimum stay of 3 days is required. All the guests' contributions will go to the operation of the space, rental of house and land, food, public services, and to our community projects.
