What really makes are Retreat special is the power of Art. We will create in sacred sites, study and create with the Ancient Symbols of the Celts. We will tap into our intuition, inner knowing, and magick. This video describes one of the practices we will be doing is meditating with the Ancient symbols, creating with them, and embodying them through revelations. Tapping into our deep well spring of wisdom and tapping into the holistic world view of the our Ancestors. By doing this you will be integrating more of your subconsciousness into your consciousness. Creating within yourself balance, harmony, and wholeness. Our Retreat is designed to transform and empower you to become the best version of yourself.

We will walk in the footsteps of our ancient ancestors and meditate in the UNESCO sacred site of NewGrange. It is a grand astro architecture passage tomb that was built by very sophisticated people during the Neolithic period, around 3200 BC, making it older than Stonehenge and the Egyptian pyramids. While there we will connect with Goddess Boann, who is said to reside in the womb/mound of Newgrange with her lover. We will celebrate, dance, play, and make art with the Fairy Folk, Cerrunos (the GreenMan) and the Devic Kingdom as we walk the sacred grounds of the Institute of Transpersonal Shamanism and at the fairy rings of Loughcrew. We will trek through the ancient Hill of Tara, which was the high seat of the ancient Celtic Kings~ igniting our heArt chakras through making art, journaling, and connecting to the torus heartbeat of this sacred site/womb of the Earth Mother Goddess, Danu. We will embody our Sacred Warrior of Light, the Irish Goddess Morrigan at the castle of Trim, through Art and creating our new story and mythology. We will climb to our highest potential, as we ascend the ancient hill of Slane. Together we will build a sacred cauldron of Anam Cara, transformation and interconnection. Through these rich and tantalizing experiences you will clarify your dreams, build bigger ones, and align with your creative powers. Our home and anchor for these six days will be at the magical and high energy Dunderry Park, which is home to the Transpersonal Institute for Irish Shamanism. Just by being there, through osmosis you will absorb much of the ancient wisdom and teachings. Sinead and Lisa your hosts, guides, and facilitators have crafted and curated a multi-sensory exquisite Retreat. In hopes of activating and expanding your heArt, which will lead you into a more enchanted, meaningful, and art filled life. Their wish is for the tapestry of your life to glow with the vibrant colors of the rainbow. As well as to awaken, that you are a star, but together-- we as a group when we unify become an empowered constellation. They have joined together to teach you new rituals, new ways of connecting to nature, new ways to create, new ways of traveling, new ways to see and BE in the world. Magical Curated Experience Each day we will open our circle with a Goddess archetype from Ancient Ireland with the Harmonia Art, Essential Oils, Meditation & Yoga Practice. We will journey to a sacred site with our art journals, watercolors, and embody the site through our art and consciousness. There will be meditative quiet time for you to travel into your inner worlds and walk the grounds. After dinner we will evoke the faery folk thru art workshops, storytelling, and open studio. You can blissfully end your evening snuggling up to the fire. “Every workshop is a community of craft.” ~ Eavan Boland, Irish poet.

Great video from Dr. Theresa Bullard on healing the limbic system through essential oils, music, and other tools. I would totally add in Art and then you are doing my Harmonia Practice.
Essential oils can also heal your Chakra System. Below is an article that suggests some amazing to incorporate into your daily Self Care Practices. Essential Oils to Balance Chakras By Marian Grande featured on Health Care in America Pretty much everyone has heard of chakras. Although I find many people aren’t really clear on what they are or what their function is. Let me explain: Chakras are energy centers within the human body that help to regulate all its processes, from organ function to the immune system and emotions. There are seven main chakras that are positioned throughout your body, from the base of your spine to the crown of your head. Each chakra has its own vibrational frequency, color, and governs specific functions. To achieve balance in all areas of your life, your chakras need to be balanced, in alignment and spinning just right. Essential oils can help you achieve that balance. First Chakra — Root Chakra Patchouli Essential Oil Also stimulates the second chakra (Sacral Chakra) The root chakra is located at the base of the spine and is represented by the colour red. It is also represented by the physical element of Earth. It represents grounding to the physical world and survival/self-preservation. The root chakra is associated with the spine, legs, feet, colon, the adrenal glands, the spine, legs, feet and colon. A balanced root chakra will have the following characteristics: being grounded, stability, stillness, prosperity, physical health, a sense of safety and security, and being present in the moment. This essential oil gives the gift of enjoying being alone with yourself in a content, relaxed state, giving rise to having a large energy store so you can get things done. It can be very supportive in helping you reach your goals, from clarification of what you desire to having the drive to do what is needed to reach your goal. This essential oil also helps you overcome fatigue and feeling down. Second Chakra — Sacral Chakra Neroli Essential Oil Also stimulates the fourth chakra (Heart Chakra) The sacral chakra is located in the lower abdomen between the pelvis and the navel centre. It is represented by the colour orange and the physical element of water. It represents vitality, self-gratification, and passion, and is associated with the sacral vertebra and the reproductive organs and effects circulation, urinary function, and reproduction. A balanced sacral chakra carries the following characteristics: ability to enjoy pleasure, emotional intelligence, sexual satisfaction, passion and the ability to embrace change. This essential oil brings the energy of pure love and lightness of being, driving away sorrows and bringing a peaceful, stable calm. This oil is simply a must for healing trauma from abuse or anytime you are in an emotional crisis or suffering from sadness. It helps to foster hope and leads you from fear. Neroli also opens you to love within yourself and the freedom of allowing love to flow freely. Third Chakra — Solar Plexus Chakra Pine Essential Oil Also stimulates the fourth chakra (Heart Chakra) The solar plexus chakra is located above the naval centre, and is represented by the colour yellow. It is also represented by the physical element of fire. It represents willpower, motivation and vitality. It is often associated with the pancreas, liver, spleen, stomach, lower back muscles, the metabolism and digestion. A balances solar plexus chakra should show the following characteristics: confidence, warmth, self-discipline, reliability, and a positive sense of self. Pine essential oil is an oil for the restoration of the heart when your emotions have become hard or jaded. This oil releases you from old wounds, letting you move forward without the baggage of the past, bringing the ability to experience your emotions in real time versus playing out echoes from the past. This oil allows you to move forward. You will feel replenished and new, which allows you to bring growth and inner peace to your future relationships. Fourth Chakra — Heart Chakra Rosewood or Rose Essential Oil The fourth chakra; the heart chakra is located in the low center of the chest and represents self-acceptance and love. It is associated with the colour green and the physical element of air. It is related with the lymph glands, heart, rib cage, lungs, skin, arms, hands, circulation and the immune system. A balanced heart chakra will have the following characteristics: self-love, contentment, compassion, acceptance, peacefulness and being centred. A wonderful oil that encourages free-flowing emotions, the ability to harmonize what you are feeling with your thoughts, and the capacity to express your emotions. This oil offers strong energetic bubble of protection and can help you maintain a clean and enclosed aura. Use this chakra scent for releasing constricted feelings stored in the chest, internalized grief, melancholy, and repressed emotions. Fifth Chakra — Throat Chakra Lavender Essential Oil The fifth chakra as its name suggests is located in the throat and is represented by the colour blue or turquoise. It is also represented by the physical element of ether.

A balance crown chakra will have wisdom, intelligence, ability to analyze, spiritual connection and open mindedness. Lime is a great essential oil to use for energetic cord cutting and detaching. Useful in enhancing your perception of the truth inside any situation. It allows you to release any illusion that you may have confused with reality. Here are a few more suggestions: Root Chakra: Cypress Sacral Chakra: Ylang-ylang Solar Plexus Chakra: Ginger Hearth Chakra: Jasmine Throat Chakra: Roman Chamomile Third Eye Chakra: Rosemary Crown Chakra: Frankincense Apply the oil (diluted with a carrier oil) to the respective chakra (i.e. root chakra — to the soles of the feet). Essential oils can help balance your chakras and keep them in alignment to ensure optimal health of the body, mind and soul.
