Join us for a deeply nourishing day retreat set in a beautiful Irish mansion, surrounded by walled gardens for outdoor practice and circles, a sauna and cold dip, and a serene yoga room to soften into stillness. Throughout the day you’ll be lovingly fed with delicious, seasonal food prepared by our chef, Helen.
Late spring is a powerful time to clean house — shedding what no longer serves before summer arrives and we move into our height of initiation, growth and movement. It’s a moment to clarify direction, restore vitality and create space to blossom fully into our summer energy. This retreat is designed to support that gentle clearing and reorientation.
After a six-year hiatus of running retreats together, Mel McLaughlin and Aoife Kane reunite to offer a special feminine rejuvenation day — a place to come and be held, restored, and return home deeply rested. Together they create a relaxed, wisdom-inspired space where you can gently unravel, reconnect, and remember your wholeness. Aoife’s unique magic, blended with Mel’s grounded presence, offers a potent yet soft container for renewal.
Mel brings over 22 years of teaching experience, holding sacred space for people to fully inhabit their bodies. Yin with Mel is an invitation to be exactly as you are, gently yet powerfully releasing stress, tension, trauma and held experiences, restoring the flow of qi and returning you to your natural state. Yin yoga is for everyone, and a truly blissful way to spend an afternoon.
Aoife is a visionary guide,intuitive, yogi and healer with over 20 years of experience. A weaver of the old and the new, she brings depth, intuition and artistry to her classes and circles, realigning and reigniting body, mind and spirit.
