♥️ Nollaig na mBan Shona Daoibh

❄️Peace descends, kids back to school, structure and routine return.

🙏🏻 I’m still integrating Sunday’s retreat. I realise now it wasn’t a January Alignment at all, it was a soft landing, a deep exhale at the end of Christmas. A coming together to be held, seen, supported and witnessed.

⭕️Twelve women in a circle.
Twelve archetypes a living mandala.
Almost every decade of womanhood represented 20s through to 70s all equal, all glorious.

💃🏽 We laughed, danced, cried, sang.
We honoured every stage of being a woman and it all unfolded so naturally.

🌀I read something recently that really landed for me that the next generation isn’t “alpha” it’s intergenerational. All of us, together.

🫶 And that’s exactly what we shared.
So much wisdom, beauty, truth and heart shared across life stages. Different paths, stories, joys and challenges all connected.

❤️ I am truly bowled over with gratitude to have been in such great company, pure heart medicine.

😌 I know this can be a tender time of year for many, so please go gently and mind your good selves.

🫶 Tomorrow night I begin a new Midweek Moves Class. This is born from listening to my own body and nervous system. A place between the yin of Monday and the yang of Saturday. A place to move, release, reconnect and be together, we need it.

🥰 Thank you to every beautiful soul who walks through our doors and shares your heart, magic and presence here.

🤍 Wishing you a gentle, nourishing, and beautiful Nollaig na mBan.

Grá agus meas mór,

Eilish

😌 How are you spending this final weekend of the Christmas holidays and the very first weekend of 2026?

🙏🏻 If your system is craving a gentler rhythm, this might be your cue…
A little time out.
Your own rate and pace.
Space to breathe again.

🌲 Come reset in the woods.
💫 Stay the night… or join us for our January Alignment Retreat on Sunday.
Nurturing • Stillness • Clarity

We’d love to welcome you 🤍

✨12:12 Blessings ✨
After the intensity of the first ten days of December, today brings a noticeable softening.
The Moon shifts, the nervous system exhales, and the energy turns from pushing through to settling in.

12:12 marks a gentle pivot point, clarity after pressure, integration after movement as we begin the slow, sacred descent toward the Winter Solstice 🌑🌞

Today give yourself a chance to land.
Let the body catch up.
Let what’s been stirred start to soften, release and make sense.

🥰 You’re warmly invited to gather with us at our Winter Events

🐍Unless you were wrapped in cotton wool, bubble wrap and living under a rock in a cave… 2025 was a big year! Huge inner and outer shifts and changes.

🙏🏻I am so grateful to have been on the Belief Coding®️ journey throughout. It certainly made the transitions smoother and more meaningful.

🌲If Christmas knocks the stuffing out of you book in a session, we will work through the layers get to the roots, lovingly mind them and change the script on how you would like to move through December.

🐴 If you’re already ready to galllop into 2026 and need some more clarity, direction and empowerment, I’d love to work with you to help you reach your full potential and live your dreams!

🌀Our beliefs shape our reality. We must ask ourselves are the programs we are running in the background beneficial or limiting? Do you dim to fit in or are you fully shining as your true self?

✨Get in touch if you are really feeling you were meant for more…
🌀1 session can bring a breakthrough
🌀3 sessions a transformation!

The power is in your hands 🙌

✨ Thanks to all the very wild and wonderful women I have worked with this year, (you’d know them by the glint in their eye!) 😘

🔥 If you’d like to relight your fire, book a session today, you won’t regret it!

Love,

Eilish

🍂The last Sunday of November invites us into The Still Point. The natural pause in between the exhale of November and the inhale of December.

☺️ Together we will enjoy a full day of rest, reflection and gentle integration.

🌀 We’ll gather in circle, move softly through mindful practices, spend quiet time in nature, and share nourishing food together. The day will close with a deep, restful Yin Yoga session to completely reset your system.

🙏🏻 This is your moment to pause, breathe, and be. Take a day for yourself to punctuate November before moving into the busyness of December.

✨ These retreats are a real day out of time and simply be, as you are held in stillness

🍂 Sunday, 30th November
Blackhill Woods Retreat, Abbeyleix.

🍂Beech & Holly in all their glory

☺️Here in Blackhill Woods, November moves slowly, a month of quiet grace. The great Beech Elders with their copper leaves all aglow, stand beside the dark glossy Holly. Together they mark this tender turning of the year. Beech, the keeper of memory, releasing her golden leaves back to the earth and Holly, the evergreen guardian, shining bright through the deepening dark.

🌳 In Irish folklore, Beech is the tree of wisdom and reflection she helps us look back on what the year has taught us. Holly is the protector, the heart of winter, bringing strength, renewal and joy!

🌲 To see them together is to witness November and December in conversation, one letting go, the other holding steady. They remind us to slow right down, to savour the misty light, the crisp air, the colours changing above and below.

🍃Here, as the woodland shifts from deciduous bronze to evergreen again, we open our doors for the final gatherings of the year.

🍂 November Stillpoint Retreat for rest and reflection.
🎄 Christmas Gatherings for peace, joy and connection.

☺️You can come for a yoga class, take time out for a retreat or stay and rest at our beautiful and cosy rewilded country home.

🌳At Blackhill Woods Retreat you can walk the woodland paths, listen to the whisper of the trees and feel nature guide you home to your true self.

🙌 Hello Beautiful Souls!

🍂 Eilish here, wishing you a super slow-mo November, a perfect time to pause and tend to your roots.

🌀I am now taking winter bookings for Belief Coding®️sessions.

✨ These sessions are profound and life changing. I have experienced it first hand myself and with many others - from matters of the heart to health, wealth, stress - everything is underpinned by our core beliefs. As our subconscious literally runs the show of our entire lives, when we upgrade our limiting beliefs, our lives naturally upgrade too!

🧠 The subconscious is 1,000,000 more powerful than conscious mind. That is why all the willpower, hard work and effort in the world can sometimes feel fruitless.

🍂 Is there a pattern or behaviour you are ready to shed for good this winter? If so I would be honoured to guide you through this very empowering journey.

🌀 1 session can bring a breakthrough.
✨ 3 sessions a transfomation!

☺️ Please see some recent testimonials below to hear from some very happy clients.

🙌 Here is the link for more info, get in touch with me to book and look forward to the next chapter of your big beautiful life!

Eilish 🌀💗🙏🏻
