This retreat is for you if:
โ You feel stuck, even though youโve already done a lot of inner work
โ Youโre aware of your patterns, but still find yourself repeating them
โ You can sense thereโs something deeper going on beneath the surface
โ Youโre ready to look at yourself honestly, not just think about things
โ You want real change, not just more insight
This is not a passive or โswitch offโ retreat.
Itโs for people who are willing to engage, reflect, and take responsibility for their own process.
If that resonates, youโll likely get a lot from this.

@claire.trishulayoga
Claire is a yoga instructor & your co-facilitator on this experiential weekend. With her true essence of calm, Claire brings a beautiful energy of safe holding within the therapeutic space & will be leading you through yoga practices & movement over the course of the weekend.
Having followed an instinct some 6 years ago when stepping on a mat for the first time, Claireโs own transformation awakened the seeker within & with it, a deep desire to dive into the teachings & philosophy of yoga. This would see Claire complete her teacher training initially in Ireland before embarking on a journey to the heart of India for a deeply transformative intensive yoga teacher training programme that has only served to reinforce her passion & Grรก for yoga. Such is the love of her craft, Claire has stepped back from her successful business in hairdressing to follow her purpose & calling by bringing her unique style of yoga to her ever growing community of followers. Inspired by her own personal experience, Claire considers Yoga as the gateway to uncovering oneโs true nature, helping you see the truth of who you really are. Claire lives in Tyrone with her fiesty feline Shiva & her cute canine Stuart. She loves nature & the outdoors & can be regularly seen barefoot in her garden, journaling, meditating & moon gazing!

Tyrell's music, sound & voice is the epitomy of the Unthought Known - it is simply beyond words & it is as if he is drinking directly from the well of source. His music speaks to the depth of who we are & our connections to that which is beyond our individual selves. Tyrell is a multi instrumentalist who has spent years developing his craft into the most beautiful & soulful creation. Ethereal, deep, emotionally evocative, Tyrell's offering is in beautiful union & harmony with the journey that awaits you on this weekend.

This is not a kick back & relax type of retreat, although you will experience elements of that, coupled with fun & laughter, however the main purpose of this retreat is to get to know yourself more. As such this involves active reflection, thinking about and working through some edgier parts within us, so you might think we are switching on in a different way, rather than switching off!

Provided you are able to tolerate emotions & regulate yourself, you are welcome to attend. The exploratory phone call following registration is intended to ensure this retreat is a right fit for you. If you are unsure before booking, please email Eloise who will be happy to discuss this in advance of your booking.
๐๐๐ง ๐ ๐๐ญ๐ญ๐๐ง๐ ๐๐ฅ๐จ๐ง๐?
Absolutely. Whilst you may be attending alone & meeting people you donโt yet know, our intention is that you will conclude the retreat with a deep sense of connection & (should you wish) create lasting bonds with your team of participants, such is the heart centred journey you will travel together.

The accommodation is particularly aligned with creating & deepening connections with likeminded others, which is what this retreat is about. You will have your own bed in a large yurt sharing with 2/3 others. Yurts will be gender specific with each yurt luxuriously furnished, within its own unique setting, containing a wood burning stove & its own restroom. Each yurt has its own restroom.

To get the most out of this experience, we encourage you to take part in all aspects, however you are under no obligation to take part & we also encourage you to practice discernment and only choose what feels aligned for you.
** Dipping in the lake is not part of the main programme, it is entirely at your discretion**

Sharing your experience among the group is most welcome as it facilitates deeper awareness within the collective, however there is absolutely no obligation for you to speak or share anything in the large group. We will be inviting sharing in pairs during the therapeutic sessions & at no time will you be required to share personal details of your life story, rather you will be invited to share your experience of the activity & what you discovered.
A second foundational pillar of this retreat is nervous system regulation & psychological safety, being able to show up exactly as you are, without demands, pressure or expectations.
Will I have free time to explore the area?
We have a jam packed weekend of exciting inner & collective adventures planned & so while there will be intermittent periods of free time, we advise you remain onsite for the entire weekend to reap full benefits of the experience. The venue is deeply surrounded by nature with plenty to explore in the surrounds of the lodge itself.

Being present for the opening on Friday evening is essential as we will be creating a safe container for our collective shared experience, therefore PLEASE DO NOT register if you canโt be present by 6pm Friday evening. If you need to leave before 2pm on Sunday, please let us know in advance so we can organise a brief check in with you. We strongly recommend that you stay until at least 12 noon for the special closing ceremony, you wonโt want to miss it!
