This is a journey into what hasn't been met in you yet.
Not the parts you already know and manage, but the ones still waiting, still unnamed. The versions of ourselves we haven't called back home.
I'll be weaving some of my techniques and disciplines into the space, alongside Cacao, Inner Source Heart Expansion, Sound and other medicines I carry. But I won't be mapping out how.
After a decade of holding ceremony, I've learned that the depth doesn't come from the plan, it comes from what moves through when we let go of one.
So I'm stepping in without knowing exactly how it unfolds, and trusting the guidance that shows up in the room to shape it with us.
If you've done this work with me before, you know I hold a strong container. We go into the unknown together.
What to expect?
Expect nothing and everything.
Laughter that turns into tears, and tears that turn into laughter.
Connection, contemplation, stillness and movement.
Expect to leave different than you arrived.
Expect depth...
This is the last retreat I'll be offering in Ireland for now.

Dearbhla will lead a warming Vinyasa flow practice in the mornings. Practicing several sun salutations with a different variations. The overall practice is slow, moving mindfully with the breath. Holding some poses a little longer to develop strength and generate warmth in the body. We will flow through different transitions improving overall body awareness and opening the joints, while also strengthening and lengthening the muscles. The practice is slow, warming and requires some physical stamina yet it has a lovely meditative and mindful quality to it. Dearbhla will offer modifications for any of the more challenging poses and rest is always an option! Creating an overall feeling of stillness and calm.
This is a lovely practice which focuses on breathing, stretching and relaxing before lunch.
Slow down, unwind and restore your energy with a ninety minute Yin Yoga and restorative practice, aiming to calm the mind, stretch and relax the body. This two-hour practice will create space and stillness in both the mind and body. Yin yoga targets the connective tissues, such as the ligaments, bones and even the joints, and releases tension and stress in the body.
The focus is simply about letting go of stress and tension, releasing into a deep yin practice followed by a long restorative practice using bolsters and blankets so people can relax, unwind and recharge. Dearbhla will use relaxing essential oils during the restorative practice for an even more relaxing experience.
