Recharge & Restore: Your Time to Shine
Nollaig na mBan: The Ultimate Post-Holiday Reset.
The holiday whirlwind is over. The gifts are unwrapped, the guests have departed, and the kitchen is finally clean. Now, it’s time for fire and ice.
Join us for a deeply comforting and powerfully revitalising 5-hour winter wellness retreat. We’ll move, plunge, warm, reflect, and nourish the body to honour the tradition of Nollaig na mBan (Women’s Little Christmas). This is your chance to shed old energy, ignite your inner spark, and put yourself first.
Come home to yourself – you’ve earned this pause.
The Retreat Experience: 5 Hours to Yourself
This year, we’re combining cosy studio practice with the powerful healing of thermal contrast therapy, followed by deep relaxation and mindful creation.
Your Day of Self-Care & Renewal: Nollaig na mBan Retreat
This retreat is designed to honor the spirit of Nollaig na mBan (Women’s Little Christmas) by prioritising rest, nourishment, and a powerful mind-body reset.
The Morning: Warmth & Reset
10:00 – 10:30 AM: Arrival & Gentle Welcome
Settle in and shake off the cold. You’ll be greeted with a warm herbal tea and a comforting, light snack. We’ll set a gentle, loving intention for the day and prep our bodies for the heat and the cold.
10:30 – 11:15 AM: Pre-Thermal Flow & Breathwork
A 45-minute Gentle Vinyasa and Restorative Yoga flow focused on warming the body from the inside out and stimulating circulation. We’ll include powerful Pranayama (breathwork) to prepare the mind for the plunge.
11:15 – 12:30 PM: The Thermal Contrast Circuit
The ultimate nervous system reset! Enjoy 75 minutes of rotating through our Outdoor Eco Hot Tub, the Barrel Sauna, and the optional Cold Plunge. This ritual boosts mood, circulation, and immunity, leaving you feeling instantly refreshed and invigorated.
The Afternoon: Nourishment & Clarity
12:30 – 1:30 PM: Nourishing Feast & Social Time
A delicious and well-earned seasonal lunch. Post-plunge hunger will be satisfied with a hearty, restorative, and healthy feast. Enjoy a calm, convivial atmosphere for connection and conversation.
1:30 – 2:15 PM: Creative Self-Care Workshop
A hands-on activity to carry the retreat feeling home. We’ll guide you in creating your own beautiful, scented All-Natural Sugar Scrub using essential oils for deep pampering.
2:15 – 2:45 PM: Mindful Intention Setting
Find quiet clarity with our guided reflection and journaling. We’ll focus on releasing the past and choosing one powerful, guiding word (Sankalpa) for the new year.
2:45 – 3:00 PM: Closing Ritual & Gift
A final, grounding body scan, a reading honouring Nollaig na mBan, and a farewell. Depart feeling lighter, clearer, and truly restored, with a thoughtful parting gift to continue your self-care journey.
