Online Workshop - SHAME: Reclaiming the Medicine Within, with Claire Killilea - Donation Based
Are there parts of you that whisper doubts, fears, and unworthiness? Do you find yourself afraid to be truly seen and heard, hesitant to step fully into your power, or ashamed of the shadows that linger within? It’s time to reclaim your power, rewrite your story, and embrace all parts of yourself. The Shame Masterclass is a 2-hour ritual journey into the heart of your shame, where you will confront, embrace, and transform it. This is not just a workshop—it’s a powerful initiation into self-acceptance and empowerment. Shame is not your enemy; it is a gateway to reclaiming your deepest truths.
Online Workshop - GRIEF: Embracing the Medicine of Life's Deepest Currents, with Jenny O’Hare - Donation Based
Grief is a universal experience. Though we experience both large and small griefs in our lives, many of these go unacknowledged, accumulating in our internal selves, relinquished to the shadow of our collective reality.
Grieving is a capacity of the deepest soul self, one that attunes us to our true aliveness.
Our grief is an offering to life, from life, on behalf of more life.
In this masterclass, we will look at the different gateways through which grief arrives; how it is that our lives and our modern worlds are calling to us to meet this potent reality, and we will learn how to acknowledge, befriend, and welcome this transformative essence.
We make space for the messages it carries, drawing on age old indigenous wisdom, and newer modalities that blend psychology, somatics and interpersonal exploration.
We will aim to grow our grief literacy and awareness, and the capacity within ourselves to meet and welcome grief, so that we may meet these times with greater clarity and grace.
Grief is not simply death or endings, it is also challenge, struggle, regret, loss and attunement to what is missing as well as what is present.
When practised, we cannot lose ourselves to grief, rather we liberate our lives to the fullness that is our birthright.
“Grief is a form of protest: it refuses to live numb and small.”
-Francis Weller
Come to this masterclass to learn the many ways we can befriend this medicine, and transform our relationship to life and living.
What You Will Receive:
Input and Teachings on the Gates of Grief
Social and cultural context of Grief practice and its modern significance
Embodiment and self care tools to process grief
Ritual activities to connect and anchor
Space to share your own experience
Who Is This For?
Anyone who has or is experiencing grief or sorrow in their lives who would like to sit this experience in greater meaning making and cultural context.
Those seeking more resilience in their inner and outer worlds.
Anyone who has carried something unseen or unwitnessed.
Anyone in grief, in struggle, in beauty or in challenge who is moved by the necessity to tend to the dark and difficult as well as the light.
Those who would like to support others (family, friends, loved ones, community) in their lives.
You are welcome.

Workshop - Grief & Shame // Brón is Náire - Reclaiming the Medicine Within
A day of experiential practice and profound exploration of that which often troubles us. As we descend towards Samhain, and the embrace of the darker months, how can we befriend the darker parts within? What does it look like for a community to come together to explore that which often lies hidden?
Grief and Shame live within so many of our experiences, yet they often remain hidden, ignored or even rejected. When we learn the skills and tools to welcome these vital aspects of life, we learn the profound medicine they contain. They lose their power to bind us. We free up so much life force energy, ourselves, and the the depth of wisdom that is speaking through them.
Through expert guidance, gentle reflective invitations, embodiment practices, and ritual, we will explore together the profound beauty of turning toward our sorrows, our shame, our troubles, and letting them flow free.
Intention:
Befriending, welcoming, and reclaiming the stories of grief and shame. This immersive workshop is a journey into the depths of your emotional landscape, uncovering the wisdom hidden in the shadows. Through acceptance and reprogramming, you will transform these once-difficult emotions into powerful allies for healing and growth.
Practices You Will Experience:
Connective Practices: Deepen your sense of community and trust through grounding and somatic exercises designed to anchor you in the present moment.
Embodiment Practices: Reclaim your body’s innate wisdom with movement, breath, and somatics to embody the emotions of grief and shame, allowing them to move through and release.
Grief & Shame Circles: Participate in a deeply personal journey where you are witnessed, supported, and received by the circle as you honor and release your story.
Ritual Offering: offering back to life what you’ve uncovered throughout the day. Through ritualized actions, you will honor and release old stories, inviting in new beginnings.
Movement & Dance Practice: A celebratory dance, releasing through your body the space you’ve made within—soft, gentle, and freeing.
Silence as Medicine: Experience the profound medicine of silence, giving space for reflection, integration, and deep listening to your inner self.
Who Is This For?
Anyone who has or is experiencing grief or shame in their lives who would like to sit this experience in greater meaning making and cultural context.
Those seeking more resilience in their inner and outer worlds.
Anyone who has carried something unseen or unwitnessed.
Anyone in grief, in shame, in beauty or in challenge who is moved by the necessity to tend to the dark and difficult as well as the light.
Those who would like to support others (family, friends, loved ones, community) in their lives.
You are welcome.
How You Will Feel After the Workshop:
You will walk away empowered, with a deeper acceptance of grief and shame, able to say, "I am grieving" or "I feel shame," and hold space for these feelings with grace. You will feel freer, more whole, and aligned with your true self, equipped with practical tools to navigate these emotions with compassion and integrity.
You also receive:

All of this will be in a beautiful seaside setting of Kinsale, an idyllic picnic overlooking the ocean, a gathering of like-hearted women, where you can share, connect, laugh and fall in love with the food you eat.

Day Retreat - Remembering our Nature
Resourcing and Reconnecting to the Wisdom of Life
As Spring awakens and unfurls, join us for a day of connecting deeply to our nature, both within and without.
Nature lives within us and through us, and so much is revealed when we explore this connection consciously.
The living world is a primary source of nourishment and wisdom, of both sustenance and beauty, of hope and care. So too it is with our own inner nature. When we slow down and attune with the pace of the living world, our presence, our attention and our capacity for beauty awaken!
During this day of restoration and rejuvenation, we explore our bodies as Earth, our relationship to place and self within that place. We tap into the wonder of our human selves. We experience the messages and meaning that lie in wait for us in the living world, and the collective wisdom that emerges through our community - human and beyond.
This immersive day is inspired by the simple reality of reciprocity - as within so without. Come explore the full breadth and depth of your true wild natural self. Always available, waiting to be unfurled!
We will be using tools of:
𖧧 embodiment and eco-somatics
𖧧 group and interpersonal dialogue
𖧧 forest bathing and earth meditation
𖧧 seasonal and cyclical attunement
𖧧 creative expression with natural materials
As we nourish our inner worlds, and connect with our outer worlds, we find the vitality that is needed in any given moment.
“Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better.”
~Albert Einstein
A day of practice, input, connection, poetry, creativity, awakening our capacities to act on behalf of Earth as Earth, gently tending to the garden of our souls.
This day is for anyone who is eco-curious! For those who already have a strong nature connection practice, or are looking to deepen their skills and awareness. For anyone who is on the path of self growth, or is new to that path, and is open to a community, both human and non, in which to deepen that way of support, growth and flourishing.
Your facilitators:
Jenny O’Hare is a Deep Ecologist and Nature guide. With a background in natural sciences, and extensive training in human nature connection, she uses eco-psychology, systems theory, embodiment, cyclical alignment and natures guidance to inform her work. The living world is her deepest belonging, and she invites us all back to that belonging.
Hannah Bowler is a holistic therapist whose work focuses on connection to Self, to community, and to the world we inhabit. She takes a depth-psychological approach, grounded in the truth of interconnection and interdependence. She is also an artist, creating in collaboration with nature, using natural materials and eco-art practices. Her creative practice focuses on listening to the land and aligning with its natural cycles.

Day Retreat - The Wisdom of the Body
This event will support you in deeply tuning into the innate Wisdom of your Body. The body speaks to us in many ways, in the day’s workshops we will take a holistic approach to understanding what your body is saying and how you can work with this wisdom.
Throughout the day we will especially focus on supporting those who suffer from inflammation in the body which can take many forms and often leaves us not knowing where to turn. Our expert facilitators Fiona Loughran and Sean Kenny will guide you in understanding some key areas to work with when it comes to these bodily responses.
And even if inflammation isn’t an issue for you - this will still be an informative day, where you will learn to support your body in a holistic way, looking at movement, breath, nutrition, and the mind body connection. Plus the Retreat Space is beyond beautiful - a glass room overlooking a lake, it’s deep nourishment all be itself!

Community & Connection
Informative Talks about the Wisdom & Language of the Body
Techniques for dealing with Inflammation
Breath-centric Yoga Flow
Wim Hoff Breathwork Session
Ice Bath (optional but we recommend it)
Ecstatic Dance
Delicious Vegan Lunch
Tea’s & Treats
Stunning Retreat Space overlooking a Lake!
The Facilitators :
Sean Kenny is a fully certified Wim Hoff Instructor and a wealth of knowledge about the bodies inflammatory responses. Sean lived with an autoimmune condition IBD (Crohns / Colitis.) since 2011, in which time he experienced severe Inflammation throughout the body and many debilitating symptoms. Through the Wim Hoff Method, breathwork, meditation, lifestyle changes, reconnection with nature and various physical practises he has been symptom free and healthy again for 4 years and is now medication free for 1.5 years. This is his first time without medication since his diagnosis in 2011.
Sean is passionate about bringing what he has learned and experienced about the healing potential of the body to those who feel at a dead end in their personal battles with their health. His story and knowledge is powerful, and he is a gentle and grounded presence in the way he works.
For this day event Sean will give a lecture about the power of breath, meditation and cold exposure therapy for the body in supporting healing and balance. He will teach inflammation suppressing techniques which have supported his personal healing. He will facilitate a Wim Hoff Breathwork Session which will give you powerful breathwork techniques to take home, and he will guide you in an Ice Bath Session, where you will discover your own strength and resilience and the power of cold exposure therapy.
Fiona Loughran is a versatile and multidisciplinary guide with a holistic approach to life and living. Her mission is clear: to guide individuals back to their natural state of bliss. Fiona's personal journey, marked by inflammation resulting from the challenges of bottling up emotions, inspired her to become a beacon of empowerment through embodiment tools, skills, and rituals.
With a rich foundation as a holistic and sports therapist, corporate personal trainer, yoga and Pilates teacher, and private chef, Fiona has woven a tapestry of experiences. Now, as a DIVINE ALIGNMENT bodyworker and embodiment guide, her central focus is on creating a sanctuary for support and fostering self-responsibility in well-being.
For this workshop Fiona will guide a breath-centric yoga practice, each inhale becomes a gentle tide, washing away tension, while each exhale is a release, carrying with it the burdens we no longer need to carry; unraveling the knots of inflammation that may have taken residence within.
She will incorporate self-massage techniques geared towards lymphatic drainage, continuing this journey of reducing inflammation. The body, like a wise companion, responds to our touch, allowing us to release stored toxins and alleviate the stress that contributes to inflammation.
Finally we will end the day with Ecstatic dance, a celebration of movement and release, joins this symphony. As we sway and twirl, we not only shake off physical tension but also invite a sense of lightness into our minds and hearts. This rhythmic dance becomes a moving meditation, a pathway to joy that reduces the inflammation of heavy emotions, leaving us feeling refreshed and renewed.
It’s going to be powerful…
By the end of this retreat, you will carry with you the wisdom of the body, the healing power of breath, and the practices to reduce inflammation and cultivate ease. It's not just about the techniques; it's about creating a lasting sense of spaciousness within, where the mind and body coexist in harmony. May this day be a sanctuary of healing, offering you the tools to navigate life with grace and embrace the ease that resides within your being.

Sean Kenny is a fully certified Wim Hoff Instructor and a wealth of knowledge about the bodies inflammatory responses. Sean lived with an autoimmune condition IBD (Crohns / Colitis.) since 2011, in which time he experienced severe Inflammation throughout the body and many debilitating symptoms. Through the Wim Hoff Method, breathwork, meditation, lifestyle changes, reconnection with nature and various physical practises he has been symptom free and healthy again for 4 years and is now medication free for 1.5 years. This is his first time without medication since his diagnosis in 2011.
Sean is passionate about bringing what he has learned and experienced about the healing potential of the body to those who feel at a dead end in their personal battles with their health. His story and knowledge is powerful, and he is a gentle and grounded presence in the way he works.
Fiona Loughran is a versatile and multidisciplinary guide with a holistic approach to life and living. Her mission is clear: to guide individuals back to their natural state of bliss. Fiona's personal journey, marked by inflammation resulting from the challenges of bottling up emotions, inspired her to become a beacon of empowerment through embodiment tools, skills, and rituals.
With a rich foundation as a holistic and sports therapist, corporate personal trainer, yoga and Pilates teacher, and private chef, Fiona has woven a tapestry of experiences. Now, as a DIVINE ALIGNMENT bodyworker and embodiment guide, her central focus is on creating a sanctuary for support and fostering self-responsibility in well-being.
Leading from the Heart with Hannah Bowler
We can all agree that the world needs more Heart right now - it can be a difficult thing to learn how to live with an Open Heart, while being able to field some of the painful things we see on the news or experience in our lives. Most of us grow up learning one protection mechanism - to disconnect and numb ourselves - but the unfortunate thing about this defence is that when we numb ourselves to feeling one thing, we become numb to feeling the fullness of Love, Joy or Connection too.
This online workshop, led by Hannah Bowler, and will be a gentle introduction into dismantling the walls we build around our hearts, opening up in a safe, resourced way to begin feeling more fully. You will learn to connect with the inner voice of your Heart and allow it to resource you in your life as you pursue your dreams.
Learning to Lead from the Heart is one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself & the world.
This workshop is free for our We Grow Together Members which is €15 per month, and your membership can be cancelled any time - there are lots more resources available in the membership so if you’re keen to go deep this is the place for you to do it. Link here

Reflect, Reset & Envision - Day Retreat
We all know that the ‘new year, new you’ taglines we see floating around at the moment are often a gimmick, but at the same time taking time for reflection and integration, setting intentions and getting clear on your goals is a great thing to do, no matter what time of year it is.
This day retreat will be an opportunity for you to do just that - to take some time for yourself to reflect on the lessons of 2023, to integrate what you learned and to step fully into 2024 with heart, purpose and vision.
