Meitheal is an old Irish term that describes how neighbours would come together to assist in the saving of crops or in other tasks. It describes the spirit of community where people work together to contribute to a social need. Men of Meitheal is the name given to a group of men with a vision to create a world that helps men to find their true authentic selves, using the Irish spirit of Meitheal.
We carefully design retreats making it possible for men to press the pause button and take a step back from their day-to-day life demands to recalibrate their mind, body and spirit. Like any holiday, the break usually does you the world of good. With your batteries recharged, thanks to the self care that you have invested in yourself, you are set to tackle life once again. Attending a men's retreat takes it all up a notch and adds another dimension towards your self care, bringing numerous benefits. Whatever the program, men can enjoy getting some well deserved time bonding with themselves. The retreat and its facilitators provide the time and safe space to decompress, destress and recharge organically. It also provides the space to enjoy the friendship and brotherhood of other like-minded men in a non-judgmental, honest and sincere environment. The retreats are usually run over a weekend, starting on a Friday evening, sometimes they are longer. The retreats are nicely balanced with periods of relaxation, dialogue, activity and critical thinking. They are run from a peaceful location in Kerry at a venue that specialises in facilitating and hosting holistic retreats. Retreats are attended by men of different backgrounds and walks of life, where everyone has an opportunity to share their experiences and life lessons. These dynamics and connections help boost confidence and self-belief and are a segway towards mental clarity, empowerment and emotional maturity. These retreats will give you that space and time much need to just stop. Stop and breathe, stop and think, stop and be in the present moment. And of course no inspiring experience would be complete without great food ! If you are looking for a men's retreat program, or looking to hit the pause button on a busy life and reflect, or if you are searching for that something you know you are missing but just can't figure out what it is, we invite you to invest in yourself and come and join and grow with us.
