Revive to Thrive: Why Going on Retreat Can Unlock Growth
Creating change is challenging, and trying to create change amidst the business of modern life can sometimes feel impossible. We are so caught up in doing that we struggle to find time to reflect, see patterns, and plan for change and growth. For centuries, the concept of retreat has given people the opportunity to step away from the normal routine of their lives, and in doing create space to think differently.
Our brain is ultra-familiar with the normal pattern of our lives. Introducing novelty, through a change in environment and routine, makes us more aware of ourselves. Combining that with space to think and be, and guided structure to support personal insight and growth is what makes the retreat experience so special.
We would love to invite you to join us from May 5th to 7th 2023 for a truly unique retreat experience in the Wicklow Mountains. Set aside some time entirely for you. Meet a like minded group, savour delicious, locally made food, breathe in the fresh mountain air, and engage with your personal growth. Create momentum through stillness, peace, and personal insight.

Here’s a little more about what to expect!
FRIDAY
Arrive, settle into your accommodation and join us and your fellow retreat participants in a Welcome Circle activity. Become present to the retreat and the extraordinary beauty of your surroundings. Enjoy a delicious dinner catered with local ingredients, then settle in for our introductory session. Set intentions for your time here and prime your brain to welcome the changes you are choosing to work towards.
SATURDAY
The day begins with a healthy, hearty breakfast. Afterwards, you will be guided through three growth-development workshop experiences.
Workshop One: Exploring Clarity and Purpose
This workshop will guide you through some experiential inner work to discover what is truly important to you and how this knowledge illuminates our actions and choices.
Workshop Two: Discover the Power of Curiosity
This workshop takes us outside into the awe-inspiring beauty of Glendalough and the Wicklow Mountains. Learn to truly embody curiosity and let go of what’s holding you back.
Workshop Three: Breath and Presence
Settle into a peaceful guided meditation experience to connect to your breath and your body. Allow the insights of the day to integrate and resonate with your intentions. After our third workshop, enjoy a little free time to reflect, journal, refresh before re- joining for a wonderful dinner, conversation and fun.
SUNDAY
Once again the day begins with a lovely breakfast before our final workshop experience.
Final Session: Decisions and Actions
This workshop will encourage you to look closely at the decisions you would like to make moving forward. We will guide you through a process of fully understanding those decisions and necessary actions. We will create clarity and alignment. You will leave with a clear sense of next steps. Our final meal together will be an opportunity to reflect, integrate and share our experiences. After lunch we will hold a Closing Circle and then, say our farewells.
