Women’s Midsummer Retreat in Nature
June 22 @ 10:00 - 16:00
The expectations of modern life are constant and demanding. Research shows women offer the most emotional support to others, repeatedly giving beyond our limits. When do we make time to rest, receive and recover?
Join the Women’s Midsummer Retreat in the beautiful grounds of Strokestown Park House and invest in a day of rest and recovery. Open yourself to a different way of being, through engaging all of your senses in the woodlands and gardens. Learn how to develop a relationship with natural allies and make connections between your inner and outer landscapes.
Immersion in nature can support you to slow down and emotionally regulate. Move from ‘ego’ to ‘eco’ and experience a deeper, more embodied way of moving in the world. Step into the brightest time of the year with a renewed sense of self and well-being.
This women’s retreat will be led by two experienced chartered psychologists. We are passionate about the benefits that nature can offer women in moving towards a more authentic and embodied sense of self.
The Practicalities:
As this will be a day in nature, wear clothes suited for the changeable nature of the Irish weather. Good walking shoes and sunscreen are recommended. Please bring along a yoga mat or blanket for lying on as well. Lunch will be available to buy in the Woodland Café in the grounds of Strokestown House or you can bring along a packed lunch with you. Please be aware that this will be an active day walking and exploring in nature.
