Solstice literally means “light standing still”.
This is the perfect chance to slow down, rest and connect with the Winter Solstice light on sacred Slieve Gullion mountain. You will be guided by Meditation Coach & Forest Therapy Practitioner Ann, from Xhale. We will create a special Mandela using natural objects from within the forest to support focus, clarity and wisdom during meditation and reflection. Forest Bathing is an evidence-based wellness practice which originated in Japan in the 1980’s.
Benefits include boosting mood, immunity and sleep, while stabilising blood pressure and reducing stress. Your forest experience will include a special, seasonal tea ceremony.
Special notes for guests
Please wear warm, comfortable clothing and a few extra layers as we will be standing and sitting still in the forest, waterproofs, walking boots/shoes.
Let us know of any health conditions, allergies or mobility issues and we will try our best to support you.
