All Programs

overall description
At Zvangas, we offer programs that support renewal, cleansing, restoring inner rhythm, and fostering creativity.
Our programs are created so that everyone can experience mindful rest and renewal at their own pace, choosing the level and depth of experience according to their individual needs.

The programs offer a range of approaches — from gentle rest and silence to more intensive cleansing and renewal practices, as well as opportunities for voluntary work within our living space.

Everyone can find a path that suits them: whether it is slowing down in everyday life, cleansing through fasting, experiencing individually tailored renewal, or becoming part of the community by taking part in rural life or contributing to the development of the space.

Reset

Pause. Renew. Return.
Reset Days offer dedicated time and space to disconnect from everyday haste and allow the mind and body to restore.
Through simple, mindful practices — movement, breath, silence, time in nature, and heartfelt conversations — fatigue is eased, inner rhythm is restored, and space is created to be authentic.

Reset Days are suitable if you are feeling overwhelmed, tired, or simply sense a need to realign your rhythm of life.

Decompression Program Schedule:

  • Minimum duration: 3 days (2 nights), with the option to extend for additional days
  • Program period: available during a designated two-week period each month
  • Arrival: flexible — choose the days that suit you best within the program period

Restart

Cleansing. Fasting. Faith. The Path.
Restart offers an opportunity to renew and create lasting change in the body, mind, and soul.

The foundation of the program is fasting, supported by mindful breathing and movement practices, silence, time in nature, and healthy nutrition. Restart helps release what is no longer needed, restore natural rhythm, and awaken inner energy, while experiencing a safe and supportive path of renewal.

Restart Program Structure

  • Preparation: 1 week at home, following provided guidelines
  • On site at Zvangas: 4 days (3 nights)
  • Schedule: held monthly
  • Continuation: option to extend your stay for integration or to join the Decompression Days
  • Integration support: guidance after the program to help bring the experience and changes into everyday life

Individual Restart

A deeply personal path to renewal.
The Individual Restart is created specifically for you, based on your situation, needs, and inner readiness. The program includes fasting, physical cleansing, practices of silence and breath, nutritional experiences, and individual sessions.

It allows you to discover your own path to renewal and integrate what you gain into everyday life, with support provided online or in person as needed.

Individual Restart Program Structure

  • Preparation: a personal conversation to understand your current needs
  • Duration: according to your needs and possibilities
  • Timing: arranged individually
  • Integration support: guidance after the program to help bring the experience and changes into everyday life

Volunteering

We invite volunteers who feel a calling toward simplicity, a mindful way of living, and inner work.

This is an opportunity to slow down and be present with yourself, nature, and the shared space — contributing your time, attention, and energy to the processes of the farm, the environment, and everyday communal life, while also preserving space for your own inner rhythm and renewal.

The volunteer program is currently under review and will reopen in spring 2026, in a thoughtful form aligned with the rhythm and values of the place.

After meeting Uldis Santjago on my path, I have already visited Zvangas twice. Uldis has an exceptional ability to create space — he listens with his heart and soul, welcomes a person exactly as they are, and creates an environment in which one can truly engage in self-discovery. I felt deeply welcomed, safe, and loved.

Continue what you have begun, Uldis. I hope that many people will find their way to Zvangas.

We all present to the world an image we have created for it, yet such lightness enters when we no longer carry that image and dare to reveal our hearts. This stage of the journey is not easy, and thank you for creating a place that supports people on this path. Because when a worldly identity collapses, everything connected to it often collapses as well — at times even family no longer feels like support. People may not yet know their own hearts, nor themselves without roles and masks in the world, and in those moments it is truly precious that we can be there for one another.

If you are seeking a space to heal and reconnect with yourself, nature, and life, this is the place. A place where you can breathe fully again, where food nourishes the soul, and where, through different practices, you return to your essence. In peace and self-acceptance, time begins to slow down, and the rhythm of life once again aligns with the rhythm of your heart. This is something that can only be felt through experience.
