Wakyanii

/WAH-KI-AH-NEE

The cosmic play of Beauty folding into itself and expressing again and again, not out of need but pure joy.

The Wakyanii Sanctuary is a place of beauty, peace and serenity. 

Located on SaltSpring Island on the traditional territories of the Coast Salish People specifically the Tsawout, Wsàeć, Quw'utsun, Stz'uminus territories, it is a place of healing where all are welcome.

The Sanctuary is a home for culture and tradition. Everything we do here is cocooned in the woven fabric of our intention: To be a lighthouse for cultural support and traditional teachings.

The Sanctuary is bowl shaped, with a beautiful spring fed pond, cedar grove, honeybees, and many thriving plants; it exudes beauty and it is an honour to be able to share in that beauty with all who come.

Our home, nestled at the center of the 5 acres, is a spacious charming farm house offering a bright main room that is used as the ceremonial space. A cedar sauna sits tucked on the edge of the pond between two weeping willows, Grief & Praise and is often fired up at some point during the weekend. There are many nooks and pockets to explore on the land offering a lovely way to percolate in the post ceremony musings and meditation.
