An Tairseach Dominican Farm and Ecology Centre, Co Wicklow, is offering two retreats this summer.
‘Coming Home to our Cosmic Centre’ is the theme of the first retreat, taking place from 11th to 16th July. This retreat will include presentations, meditation, art work, movement, dreams and silence to help participants open to the divine energies of the universe.
Spiritual directors will be Paddy Greene S.J. and Pauline McGrath O.P.
Dates: 11 – 16 July. Arrivals: 4-6pm on 11th. Departure after Eucharist on the 16th.
Cost: €380. Booking Fee: €50.
The second retreat is called ‘Awakening Consciousness – Realising the Holy and the Whole’ and takes place from 15th to 20th August.
Weaving together Jesus’ experience of the Reign of God, the insights of the mystics as well as understandings that come from the new cosmology and quantum physics, Jan Novotka will gently and skilfully invite participants to know and experience themselves anew. Integral to this silent retreat is sitting in stillness together, the practice of deeper awareness, some group sharing, personal processing, time in the natural world, and, of course, music.
Directed by: Jan Novotka. Spiritual Guide and Composer of Eco-Spiritual music.
Dates: 15 – 20 August. Arrivals: 4-6pm on 15th. Departure after breakfast on the 20th.
Cost: €380. Booking Fee: €50.
