Bean Feasa - Wise Woman Weekend

3 day retreat 2nd - 4th October 2020

Bean Fessa translates into English as Wise Woman or Woman of Knowledge. This term was traditionally used in Ireland for women who were healers. Healers usually healed through herbs, or connections with the fairies or other worldly beings.
 
These traditions are of course are not unique to Ireland, but I will waive the stories of some of Ireland most famous Bean Feassa’s throughout this weekend, so we can take inspiration and connect to the Bean Feassa within. 
 
Join me for this weekend of self healing, self empowerment and connection to our sisters, with Yoga, Meditation, Ceremony & Ritual. 
 
Style of Yoga to be taught
This weekend is a blend of Moon Yoga, Yin Yoga, Meditation, Journaling, Creativity, Ceremony & Ritual. I have combined all the tools that have helped me discover the bean feassa inside. This is a jam packed weekend; I like to make sure you get the most out of your time.
Each style of Yoga is slow but powerful, focusing on a more feminine/Yin style allowing us to rest and digest rather than forcing through and pushing hard. These transformative practices are suitable for beginners and can be tailored to suit certain injuries & conditions that may not be suitable for a stronger style of Yoga.
Everyone is welcome to join this weekend. It is aimed towards anyone who wishes to connect with their inner Wild Woman regardless of your gender.

Highlights

  • 4 yoga classes
  • 2 yoga nidra sessions
  • 2 workshops
  • Suitable for beginners and all fitness levels
  • All meals included
  • 2 nights accommodation (shared and unshared accommodation options available)

The Breathing Space studio

This large, light-filled space has commanding views over the Barrow River and surrounding forests, as well as the 7th century monastic settlement of St Mullins itself.  Although it was designed specifically to function as a yoga studio and mediatation space,  it supports multiple uses. It features  a special infra red heating system and a full complement of yoga equipment.

The food experience on the retreat

At Mulvarra, we are very excited about food. Excited about where it comes from, how it is grown, how it is prepared, who you eat it with. As we are still in the early stages of developing Mulvarra and its Breathing Space, we are currently using fresh ingredients and organic food where we can but in the future we will grow our own food.We generally stick to vegetarian cooking in Mulvarra, although we are flexible and also cater to a variety of dietary restrictions. Vegetarian cooking is so versatile, you really don’t miss that piece of meat on your plate when it’s not there. Whatever your thoughts are on the topic, there is no denying that the meat production in most countries is not sustainable and certainly not animal friendly. When we do, very occasionally, prepare meat dishes we make sure it’s organically sourced

Food Highlights

  • Full board accommodation
  • All meals and drinks included
  • healthy energy snacks
  • Food is all vegetarian and organic produce
