Imagine a serene day retreat set within the majestic grounds of the centuries-old Birr Castle. The air is fresh, infused with the scent of crisp autumn leaves and the distant sound of rustling branches. As you arrive, the stone facade of the castle greets you, exuding an atmosphere of tranquility that invites you inside.

The Morning:
You begin your day with an Awakening Kundalini Yoga session. Guided by an experienced instructor, you flow through a series of postures designed to awaken both body and mind.
After yoga, you take part in a guided meditation session, set against the backdrop of the castle’s tranquil surroundings. You are encouraged to breathe deeply, letting go of any lingering tensions and allowing your mind to find stillness.
You find yourself enveloped in peacefulness as you are led into the sacred cacao ceremony, before wandering the castle gardens, taking in the sights of ancient trees and idyllic landscapes. The connection to nature fosters a sense of peace as you engage in mindful walking, focusing on each step and the beauty that surrounds you, before taking part in a well blessing ceremony.

Lunch:
Inside Nella May’s Georgian lodge, the atmosphere is warm and inviting. A beautifully arranged table is laid for you to enjoy a delectable three-course meal, all 100% organic.
After your meal, we host our talk titled ‘Nourishing Heart & Home’. This discussion delves into how creating a nurturing space can positively influence our mental state, promoting a sense of peace and stability.

The Afternoon:
After digesting your food and thoughts, you take part in relaxing Yin Yoga, a slow flow where you are encouraged to relax into floor positions, allowing the fascia of your body to fully soften and relax. This is followed by a session of Yoda Nidra, also known as Yogic Sleep; a guided meditation technique that induces a state of consciousness between sleeping and waking.
This relaxing day retreat concludes with light, comforting tea & treats and a moment to reflect on the harmony achieved within the historical and natural beauty of the castle grounds. The experience leaves you rejuvenated, grounded, and ready to carry the calm into your everyday life.
