Sri Shiv Shakti Ashram is an ashram at 1658 Tadmor-Glenhope Rd, listed under Tapawera in the Tasman district. It has a 4.8 Google rating from 26 reviews.
An ashram is a place for spiritual practice and community living, often built around meditation, yoga, prayer, chanting and simple shared work. Visitors are usually asked to respect the rhythm of the place, which can include early starts, quiet times, modest dress and vegetarian meals. If you are thinking of visiting, contact the ashram first to ask whether you can come for a day, a program or a stay, and what is expected of guests. Regulars arrive with an open mind, follow the house guidelines and take off their shoes where asked. Ask about donations and what to bring, since practices differ from one ashram to another.
Tadmor-Glenhope Rd runs through a rural part of the Tasman valleys, so a visit here is a quiet trip into the countryside.
