Embodied & Somatic Yoga Retreat
I am thrilled to be returning to Blackwater in County Wexford for our Nourish and Grow Retreat again this year.
This gorgeous weekend gathering is happening in just over three weeks time down at the beautiful Ballyvaloo Retreat Centre (20-22 March). This retreat, originally designed as a bespoke teacher's retreat, has now evolved into an open to everyone retreat as at the core of this intention and offering, the theme Nourish and Grow is really all about nourishing ourselves at a deep level and this is something I feel we all need at this time.
How do we come home to ourselves and embed inner nourishment, inner connection, inner knowing, so that we can grow and develop as a human, a teacher, and all of the roles we are in this world. For me this is through the following pillars:
Rest, rest comes first, you will be invited to rest and receive with several Yoga Nidra Practices plus a Sound Bath and other self care and nurturing practices.
Space, At Ballyvalloo Retreat Centre, all of the rooms are single occupancy/en suite so you have your own comfort and space all weekend plus the grounds of the retreat centre are a lived embodiment of space.
Peace & Meditation, Ballyvalloo is a deeply peaceful and spiritual centre, decades of spiritual practices are woven into the land and buildings at a deep level. Meditation is a doorway for inner peace, you are invited to optional guided meditation on both mornings.
Free / Quiet Time: Saturday afternoon is your free time to walk in the forest, on the beach, take a nap or read a book in bed, you get to choose.
Nature: You have private access to a 20 mile golden sandy beach and we are just a 10 miniute drive to The Raven Nature Reserve and Forrest, Curracloe.
Embodiment: You are invited to enjoy easeful Somatic and Embodied Yoga Practices each day of the rereat. (90 minute practies on Saturday morning and Sunday morning)
Nourishing food, You will be nourished with delicious home cooked meals over the weekend.
Connection and Community, Always at the centre of our retreat is connection and community. You will be gathering with our group of like minded souls and hearts.
