Come, get in touch with a wilder side of yourself and join us from December 5-8, 2024, in the enchanting landscape in a remote and wild location in Aughavannah, Co Wicklow, for a unique 4-day retreat designed to reconnect you with your wilder nature. As we stand in the liminal time between Samhain and Winter Solstice, we honour the shifting of the Celtic calendar, embracing the inward journey that this season calls for.

In these precious days, you will explore the ancient wisdom of rewilding yourself through mindful connection to nature, nourishing seasonal food, and restorative practices.

This will be hosted by Courtney Tyler, along with some incredible guest facilitators such as Oonagh O'Sullivan of Wild Womb Alchemy and more. The full details of fellow facilitators and workshops will be announced in due course.

We will be gathering over these 4 days to re-connect to ourselves and to others, to explore what it means to re-wild ourselves and delicious nourishing food together.

We will create a ceremonial headpiece together for a shamanic inspired masquerade ball, sweatlodge ceremony, various workshops touching on topics such as: wild food, fermentation, herbal medicine, medicinal mushrooms, forest bathing and more.

You will go home with a ceremonial headpiece (and a full heart and belly) after our long weekend together.
Nourish Your Body with Seasonal Food: Enjoy nourishing, soul-satisfying meals prepared by the talented Chef Nicky Halliday, designed to align with the seasonal rhythms and support your wellbeing from the inside out.

Cacao, medicinal mushrooms drinks, herbal drinks and elixirs, foraged food tasters and meals prepared with love and care are all included as well as accommodation.

This retreat is more than just a getaway—it is a journey inward, a time to re-root yourself in the natural rhythms of the earth, and a chance to awaken your wild, instinctual self as we step through the final days of the Celtic year.
Spaces are limited to ensure a deep, intimate experience. For more information and to book your place, follow the link below.
