The retreat is built on the philosophy of people helping people and the question of who the helper is, and who is being helped, is often arguable. We all have something to give as well as to learn.
People are encouraged to challenge themselves and be open and honest. To do this people also need the trust of those around them and those attending are asked to model an attitude of accepting others.
Several of the Antara members are qualified nutritionists. We eat mostly organically grown food (much of it grown by us) that is GE Free. The majority of the food eaten is vegetarian, however, some fish and chicken is also eaten.
As a place of learning and support the retreat is a drug and alcohol free. The retreat is also smoke-free but has a smoking tree for workshop participants and visitors. People are also asked to remain sexually neutral during their stay to support others who may need time out.
Sleeping arrangements are bunk style with the retreat sleeping up to 15.
As the retreat is free to attend everyone mucks in. Participation in the maintenance and running of the retreat is appreciated and part of the fun. Take it from people that have been there - it’s awesome!
