Get away from it all and recharge your batteries using Yoga Mindfulness on beautiful Heir Island in West Cork…
This retreat focuses on Yoga and Mindfulness. We will explore yoga, movement, sitting and walking meditation, yoga nidra, with time indoors and outdoors.
This popular weekend is co-facilitated by the warm-hearted, long-term Mindfulness practitioner Paola Vais. It is my pleasure to co-teach with this wise and humble teacher, who will not long have returned from a 30-day retreat in Burma.
All ages and levels of ability welcome.
Location and Accommodation:
Heir Island is a beautiful spot just off the coast of west Cork. It has 7 beaches, majestic cliffs and only 25 year-round residents.
Retreaters will stay at the gorgeous Roaringwater Lodge Guest House, at part of Heir Island Sailing School. Accommodation is based on twin/double sharing with some private rooms. All rooms are en-suite. Delicious vegetarian meals are included.
Yoga classes will be held in the stunning, purpose-built Mobius Centre which is just a two-minute lazy walk from the guest house. The centre has a beautiful studio overlooking the bay and a chill out room, therapy room, kitchenette and bathroom.
