Shantigar is founded on the belief that disciplined artistic, meditative, and healing practices parallel and enrich each other, and that strengthening any of our three bodies – physical, mental, or spiritual – strengthens the other two bodies too.

     Shantigar welcomes skilled and gifted body workers, nutritionists, homeopaths, herbologists, accupuncturists, practitioners of preventative and Ayurvedic medicine, transpersonal psychotherapists, and other authentic healers who activate a joyous sense of being well.  (Shantigar’s founder, a self-styled “health nut,” has long enjoyed good health through rigorous adherence to various health practices – physical, emotional, and spiritual.)  
           
    Shantigar’s new Cloud Mountain community building will include spaces for visiting healers to introduce their work to community members and workshop participants.
