Retreats to Look Forward to in 2026

In the fast-paced world we live in, it’s easy to lose touch with our natural rhythms—both the creative ebbs and flows that stir our inner world and the gentle rhythms of the earth itself. This Spring Equinox retreat is an invitation to reconnect with both: to rediscover the flow of our creativity and honor the necessary periods of rest and restoration.

 

Through writing, reflection, embodied practices and nature connection, we will explore how our personal healing is interwoven with the collective and ecological crises we face, fostering a deeper sense of interconnectedness with the world around us.

​

What to expect over the course of the weekend:

This retreat is about rewilding—returning to a deeper, more instinctual connection to ourselves, our creativity, and the natural world. It combines the practice of creative writing with immersive time in nature, giving you space to reflect, create, and reconnect with what makes you feel most alive and spend time with other like-minded people.

​

Creative Writing – Daily writing exercises inspired by the natural world and our inner landscapes, exploring themes of growth, cycles, resilience, and stillness. No experience necessary—just the willingness to express yourself authentically.

Nature Immersion – Walks, meditations, optional lake dip and private sauna, time spent in quiet contemplation within the natural surroundings, using nature as both a muse and a guide.

Rest and Renewal – A balance between moments of deep creative work and moments of rest—learning to trust the ebb as much as the flow, and understanding the wisdom that rest offers.

Movement practice – led by Wellbeing Warrior Blaithin Sweeney

Circle Sharing – Group circles for reflection, sharing, and witnessing each other’s process. This safe, supportive space fosters connection, growth, and encouragement.

Personal Growth – Opportunities to explore your personal journey through journaling, reflection, and creative expression, leading to deeper self-awareness and connection.

Connection – Get to know others in a small group setting

Nourishing food – All meals are included from dinner on Friday to breakfast on Sunday morning you will enjoy delicious locally prepared meals by award winning chef Peter Campbell to nourish your body.

​

Some of the themes we will explore:

• The ebb and flow of the creative process

• Reconnecting with the natural cycles of the Earth

• Finding inspiration in solitude and stillness

Cloaked in Humanity, Lit from Within

 

If you’ve been quietly shape-shifting to fit what the world demands, yet ache to be witnessed as you truly are - raw, radiant, wise, and whole - this retreat is your sacred calling. Among wild cliffs and kindred women, you will shed what no longer serves and remember the power of your presence.

  

Rest without guilt and know you’re enough. Through nourishing rest, affirming rituals, and the healing balm of shared silence, you will let go of guilt so you can embrace your enoughness—fully, tenderly, joyfully.

​

Together, in a circle of 20 women, you will:

• Restore your nervous system through breath, movement, and guided deep rest

• Unhook from digital overload with a guided tech detox and reconnection practices

• Reclaim your inner rhythms through daily embodiment and sacred nature immersion

• Rediscover soul connection through circle, sound, silence, in an ancient land
   

This is not a vacation. It is a sacred pause. A deep exhale in the wild lands of Ireland.

​

You'll leave this retreat with...

• A body that feels lighter, safer, and more alive

• A quiet, powerful trust in your own inner wisdom

• Simple but life-altering tools for regulation, ritual, and rest

• Soul-sisters who see you, hold you, and walk with you

• A felt memory of who you are when you are well
  ​

Each day of your retreat is lovingly curated with soul-stirring rituals, embodied practices, sacred rest, and wild-hearted excursions designed to awaken your inner wisdom, replenish your nervous system, and return you to the vibrant rhythm of your true self.

Come and join Rosie & Frankie on a Wild & Rooted journey at the heart of Midsummer, to land that hums with something ancient and alive. This Summer Solstice, we gather in Ireland for a five-day retreat to celebrate summer, to remember what it feels like to be woven into nature’s cycles and to allow ourselves to bloom fully alongside the land itself. Learn how to forage and create with seasonal plants, practice daily yoga, enjoy wild swims, storytelling, potions beneath the stars. Discover the cyclical wisdom woven through it all. This retreat is a celebration of nature, ritual and the wild woman within. An experience like no other this Mindsummer — a place to rest, reconnect and celebrate all that is blooming, with a little mischief amidst the emerald rolling hills.
