A Summer yoga day retreat at Ballymaloe Grainstore on July 5th

I’m delighted to announce a new
Summer yoga and foraging retreat!
With Dearbhla Glynn and Sarah O’Neil from Danu herbalist
On Sunday July 5th from 10.30pm - 4pm
At Ballymaloe Grainstore.

A yoga day retreat is a great act of self care.
In the height of Summer, it is lovely to take a day just for you, to practice yoga, eat delicious healthy food, relax deeply, enjoy a mindful walk where we learn how to forage for plants and herbs in the beautiful surroundings of the Ballymaloe estate.

We will begin our day with a grounding meditation, breath-work, moving into a slow, warming and energising Vinyasa practice.

After our practice we enjoy a walk around the beautiful grounds of Ballymaloe

We will be joined be Sarah O’Neill of Danu Herbalist for a midsummer plant medicine walk exploring the hedgerows, meadows and wild edges in the fullness of Summer. Together, we’ll learn how to identify medicinal and edible plants while reconnecting with the season and the landscape around us.

Along the walk, we’ll meet many plants abundant in July and long associated with healing, nourishment and seasonal ritual. We’ll explore their traditional uses, safe harvesting, plant energetics and the role these herbs once played in everyday life in Ireland. We will return to prepare seasonal herbal teas and simple wild foods using our foraged plants.

We will enjoy a delicious, healthy Summer lunch and enjoy the herbal teas we have just foraged.

The afternoon is all about relaxing and releasing tension and stress from the body, Dearbhla will also lead a 90 minute Yin and Restorative practice.This practice not only release stress and tension from the body, but will also help boost your immunity, calm the mind, lower cortisol levels in the body and set you up to return to your life, feeling more present to yourself.

This retreat is open to everyone and all levels of yoga are welcome 💛

Expect to float home!
