Winter Solstice in the Woods

Solstice literally means “light standing still”.

This is the perfect chance to stop and connect with the Winter Solstice light on sacred Slieve Gullion mountain. Forest bathing is an evidence-based wellness practice which originated in Japan in the 1980’s as a stress prevention intervention. 2 hours in the forest boosts your immunity for up to 10 days.

We will create a special Mandela using natural objects selected by you from within the forest. This will support clarity, focus, energy and wisdom when setting intentions for the year ahead. Connect with the sacred Solstice light through a guided healing white light meditation followed by personal reflection to develop goals and affirmations for the year ahead.

Your forest experience will end with a tea ceremony including organic winter berry cordial and shortbread from a local bakery.
