Internships FAQ
What will I learn as an intern?
We’ve developed a unique set of teachings based around the science of Natural Hygiene, called the 7 Dynamics of Self. This understanding helps you achieve a sense of alignment and harmony that positively affects every aspect of your life, from health and vitality, to relationships and even being of service to your community.
Some aspects that we explore include: nonviolence, compassionate communication, functional fitness, species-appropriate diet and lifestyle, emotional awareness, minimalism, sustainability, self-sufficiency, barefooting, meditation, conservation and much more. You’ll have the opportunity to learn this philosophy and practice it daily, in real-time, with coaches and peers supporting you every step along the way.
Can I choose which project to work with?
Yes; let us know if you’ve got a particular area of interest. We’re looking for people who are excited to explore the world of wholistic wellbeing through participation in all our Haven Projects.
How long are internships?
There’s a two-month minimum stay with potential invitation for longer stays.
Do I have to live onsite?
Yes. All interns reside at Camp Haven in their choice of accommodations.
What does room and partial board consist of?
Rooming consists of a simple bedroom in our communal living space that you can customize to your liking. We also encourage camping outside in warmer weather.
We provide food in the form of unlimited* raw fruits and veggies from Haven Market, $10/week credit to spend at the Market on other food items and any produce grown onsite at Camp Haven.
