What to expect
Joy can be experienced in many different ways, such as through moments of laughter, connection, the accomplishment of a goal, the experience of love, or simply by appreciating the beauty of the world around us. Joy is often accompanied by a sense of gratitude, as we feel thankful for the positive experiences in our lives that have brought us a sense of happiness and contentment.
During this retreat, you’ll have the opportunity to explore a variety of joyful wellness practices, including yoga, harmony singing, breathwork, ecstatic dance, and even a hike on the stunning Cliffs of Moher Trail. Imagine starting your day with a peaceful yoga session, followed by some energising breathwork and then an invigorating hike along the breathtaking coastline. We will gather together for some harmony singing and ecstatic dance, allowing you to let go of any lingering stress and fully embrace the present moment.
Not only will this retreat provide you with the opportunity to connect with your body and mind, but you’ll also have the chance to meet like-minded individuals who share your passion for wellness and self-discovery. So, whether you’re a seasoned yogi or a complete beginner, “Release into Joy” is the perfect way to take a break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and reconnect with your inner joy.
We can’t wait to have you join us on this journey of self-discovery and transformation!

Níall Ó’Murchú
Within a few breaths, I knew I had found something special. After a few days, I was changing: I had more energy and was less stressed. After a few weeks I felt more alive and empowered. After three months, I was transformed: my health had improved, my mind was clear and I had the energy to leave my old job and dedicate my life to teaching the Wim Hof Method.
