Return to Balance - Rest in the Stillness - An Intimate Gathering of Women - Sunday 29th March 2026

Join us to experience a deeply nourishing day of Rest as you Return to Balance at the Spring Equinox in the breathtaking surroundings of Gorse Hill. The studio looks out over Dublin / Wicklow Bay. Together we will rest in stillness as we connect to ourselves, each other and the land.

  • Return to Self - Inner Stillness, Breath Awareness, Yoga Nidra and Deep Rest

  • Return to Community - Shared Silence, Circle Practices and Guided Reflection

  • Return to Nature - Movement Meditation by the Sea with the Land to hold you

This is a day to retreat from the noise outside. We will gather not to perform, not to produce, not even to march — but to be still, together. To rest for ourselves, for each other and for nature as she and we awaken from the slumber of Winter. This is a time to honour the thread that connects us across the world.

In these times where the world is getting nosier we invite you to pause and return to balance as you connect with the stillness and silence that resides within. We will come together to remember our birthright to rest, to remember who we are from a soul connected space, to remember how to gather in community and receive guidance to bring the day home as a resource for the season ahead.

You arrive, you rest and you remember.

The Spring Equinox is an opportunity to connect to your own divine power. A time to remember who you are at a soul level without the noise. The Spring Equinox is a midway point between Imbolc, where you planted intentional seeds in the belly of your being and Bealtaine where these seeds will have the opportunity to blossom. This is the cross quarter festival in the Celtic Wheel of the Year - a day to rest in the stillness as you bring balance into your being with nature as your guide. There is no urgency to bloom outwards just yet. Stop Pause Be and Remember your right to Rest in these unrestful times.

You will leave Resourced, Restored and deeply Rested.

Wintering Programme 2024

As the days grow darker and the cold sets in, the natural rhythm of winter season reminds us to slow down and turn inwards. Yet, due to our societal or familial conditioning, giving ourselves permission to rest might be challenging. That’s why we have created the Wintering Programme - a space to reconnect, recharge and experience the transformative power of rest through the healing practices of Yoga Nidra and Reiki.

Why Rest Matters this Winter
Winter is a season of reflection and renewal. Through Yoga Nidra, a deeply restorative guided meditation, you can enter a state of conscious relaxation, allowing your body to heal and your mind to find clarity. Reiki is a form of energy healing which complements your Yoga Nidra practice by removing energetic blocks and supporting emotional regulation and deepening your relaxation.

What You’ll Experience
Allow yourself to be nourished through the darkness as we tend to our roots and ground our energy. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed by the demands of life or simply need a moment of peace, our Wintering Programme will help you ground into the season find stillness and reconnect with yourself.

Programme Details

  • When: We will meet every second Monday at 6pm

    • 21st October

    • 4th November

    • 18th November

    • 2nd December

  • Where: A central Dublin city centre venue
