We invite you to support our mission through a one-time or monthly donation, offered in the spirit of Ayni—a sacred principle of reciprocity rooted in Indigenous traditions.

​

The concept of Ayni comes from the Andean spiritual traditions, particularly the Quechua and Aymara peoples of the Andean region, including modern-day Peru, Bolivia, Ecuador, and Colombia. Ayni is a foundational principle in these indigenous cultures, meaning sacred reciprocity, mutual exchange, and balance. It reflects the deep understanding that all life is interconnected and that giving and receiving must be in harmony. Traditionally, Ayni governs relationships between people, nature, and the spiritual world.

​

In practice, Ayni can be seen in:

• Community work (Minka) – People exchange labor and help each other without immediate expectation of payment.

• Offerings to Pachamama (Mother Earth) – Giving offerings (Despacho ceremonies) to maintain balance and gratitude.

• Reciprocal relationships with nature – Harvesting in a way that honors and gives back to the land.
   

Ayni teaches that when we give from the heart, we maintain balance with the natural world and with one another. Your contributions help us continue to offer healing services, spiritual education, and community gatherings rooted in love, integrity, and inclusion. Every gift, no matter the size, nurtures this growing ecosystem of care and transformation.
