Surroundings In the beautiful nature of Ireland, we will have some space in the program for a walk or relaxation in the green surrounding us. You will be inspired by the pristine nature and lovely countryside. We have the privilege of having a little river, fresh air, smiles, hugs, and growing our vegetables in an amazing garden, honoring Mother Earth. A curious and amazing fact of this area is that there are hundreds of wild horses walking around! Yes, it still exists!Accommodation There are possibilities to sleep either in a room, a garden cabin or to camp. Read HERE more about the accommodation and the rates. The food The meals are vegetarian and mostly plant-based, gluten and sugar-free, with special attention to gut health because a healthy and happy mind and body starts on the plate and nourishing, natural and tasty food is a priority. We have a wonderful organic kitchen and vegetable garden. During the retreat, we have special attention on each day, supporting the rising energy of the chakras with selected meals. If you have special dietary requirements, please, let us know.
