Our Mission

Two wooden signs amidst greenery with welcoming messages.

Our mission is to assist people in their transformation from dis-ease to health.

We accomplish this by utilizing novel healing approaches not readily available in current allopathic Western medicine.

We offer retreats and consultations that draw on approaches such as the Labyrinth, various forms of Yoga, and various forms of meditation.

We offer these healing modalities at our Outdoor Council Circle, an outdoor Yoga Deck overlooking the Willamette Valley in Yamhill County, Oregon, and throughout 5 acres of Healing Gardens within our 55-acre Center.

Our mission is also to offer novel programs that support and generate creativity on both an individual and collective level.

The Surya Chandra Retreat Center and Healing Gardens is a sanctuary for individual and collective transformation.

Our Land & Gardens

11-circuit labyrinth in the gardens at Surya Chandra Retreat Center near Portland, Oregon

The Labyrinth

Labyrinths have been used for centuries to induce states of calm and tranquility. Our 11-circuit labyrinth accommodates individuals and groups walking the circuits together in quiet repose and contemplation. Set amidst a garden that engages all the senses with each season, it's ideal for receiving calming connections to questions posed by our inner selves.

Our Yoga Deck

A multipurpose space customized to your group, our Yoga Deck overlooks our ponds and rockery with distant mountain views — a magical portal to embrace nature. Yoga or Pilates sessions here are led by our certified instructors

The Healing Gardens

Set on our serene 55-acre property in Oregon's Wine Country, our gardens include ponds, a rockery, and many quiet walking paths that engage all the senses with each season. It's the perfect backdrop for Sound Healing, Hypnotherapy, and Energy Medicine sessions with our dedicated practitioners.
