To Be Held; Women's Yoga & Somatic Day Retreat

Offer yourself space and time to be held, to feel support, a place to just be so as to return to everyday life reconnected and revived.

To Be Held is a nourishing half-day retreat, nestled in the Dublin mountains, offering women the opportunity to slow down, reconnect with the body, and explore a deeper sense of presence through somatic movement, yoga, conversation, and rest.

We’ll begin gently, gathering over tea and conversation before moving into a longer yoga and somatic movement practice. After sharing a nourishing lunch together, there will be space to explore themes around the body, nervous system, connection, and what it means to feel held — both by ourselves and by others.

The afternoon will close with restorative yoga, giving you time to soften, settle, and integrate before returning to the outside world. There is nowhere you need to be and nothing you need to achieve. Just space to arrive, breathe, move, listen, rest, and be held.

This retreat is for you if you’re longing to:

Slow down and create space for yourself

Reconnect with your body

Move and breathe without pressure or Performance

Explore your relationship with your nervous system

Feel supported and connected in the company of other women

Give yourself permission to rest

Spend an afternoon simply being rather than doing

There is no need to have a particular level of yoga experience, flexibility, or fitness. The invitation throughout the afternoon is to listen inwardly, honour your own boundaries, and find what feels supportive for you.

A space to soften.
A space to connect.
A space to be held.
