About your facilitator:
Alyce has been practising yoga since 2005 and sees yoga as an essential part of her well-being. She trained as a yoga teacher with The Celtic School of Yoga and furthered her studies with a qualification in women’s and pregnancy yoga. She also trained in ballet and dance for over two decades. Her classes weave the cyclical wisdom of nature (the seasons, the moon, women’s cycles, the elements) with Ireland’s spiritual heritage, poetry and traditional yogic philosophies. She is from Galway, living in Westmeath.

There are so many incredible offerings as part of this event - make sure to check them out. ⭕️

We loved incorporating these beautiful plant medic

We loved incorporating these beautiful plant medicines into our journey on the Hill of Uisneach, itself the hearth and heart of Ireland.

Cacao is a sacred medicine and allows us to ground deeply and access the inner intelligence of the heart so we can open, surrender and expand our consciousness.

To weave our own indigenous wisdom into the experience, we infused the cacao with Irish native plant medicines of Hawthorn and Rose, known for their heart-healing and heart-opening properties.

I have adored learning about these plant medicines from @mandalei.medicine , @alicevignoles.ie and @danusirishherbgarden . What a privilege it is to learn from such incredible women, and share their teachings with others.

@mandalei.medicine cacao facilitation course is so beautifully put together and informative ✨
@alicevignoles.ie is a yoga teacher who runs regular cacao ceremonies in her studio @machayoga_studio 🤍
@danusirishherbgarden is a teacher of herbalism and native plant medicine in Connemara 🌱

So much gratitude for their offerings🤍🤍🤍

Keep an eye out for mine and @katyharrisonyoga next retreat at @hill_of_uisneach. They sell out quickly so join the mailing to be the first to get the booking link ✨

Beyond grateful to have been able to host our Imbo

Beyond grateful to have been able to host our Imbolc day retreat a few weeks ago at @hill_of_uisneach alongside my sister, dad and baby girl 🤍 It was such a beautiful day and we were blessed with the incredible group that joined us 🤍🌱 These events sell out quickly so make sure to get on the Sidhe yoga mailing list to be the first to hear.

About two months ago, we welcomed another beautifu

About two months ago, we welcomed another beautiful baby daughter into the world. She was born in the week before the Winter Solstice and I was lucky enough to have had the most beautiful, quiet, unmedicated labour - not in hospital but in a beautiful, dark hotel room nearby - hours passing, surges coming and going with my partner beside me. The actual birth of this little one was fast in the end, we got to the hospital just minutes before she arrived and I had the support of the midwives in the Coombe for her arrival.

Because her birth was a VBAC and our home over an hour from the hospital, it was the closest to a home birth I felt I could get. I felt we really did it on our own- the three of us. I am so grateful to my little girl for allowing me to experience birth in this way.

Reflecting on it, the experience was a real representation of the value of darkness, going inside myself to find steadiness, the support that was there with me through that experience, the trust I maintained in myself, my partner and my baby, and this ray of light growing, emerging, coming into the world.

Her birth was a VBAC and I couldn't be more proud - there are so many obstacles to face in the hospital system when it comes to VBAC and I felt I was able to navigate them with confidence. I used my voice and expressed my beliefs and my wishes around the upcoming birth. I did have to sign a waiver around my choices - this was bluntly drafted to cover the most extreme scenario rather than informing me of the range and scale of eventualities. Still, my midwife and my partner always believed in my ability to do it, and my heart is full with gratitude for that support as well as the pregnancy yoga teachings that were the foundation of my positive experience.

I’m so looking forward to bringing the wisdom from my experience to my classes 🤍

And of course, having two beautiful daughters now is blowing my heart right open.

Lá Fhéile Bríde 🌱 As new life stirs and tra

Lá Fhéile Bríde 🌱

As new life stirs and transcends from deep within the womb of the earth, awakening and emerging towards the light, may you harness the wisdom of the dark feminine, feel the life force of Spring within and slowly begin your own emergence 🤍🤍

We are so looking forward to our celebration at the Hill of Uisneach on the 4 February- the date of astronomical Imbolc.

Imbolg /imbolc is the Celtic celebration of Brigid, the fertility goddess who poured the future into the river Shannon from her great iron cauldron (Imbolg means “in the belly”). It is the celebration of springtime, rebirth, renewal and new life - buds on the trees, lambs being born. Brigid is also known as the triple goddess of poetry, healing and craftsmanship.

Uisneach has an association with the Goddess Brigid - she was a member of the Tuatha de Danann (daughter of an Dagda) and the goddess of the hearth. Similarly, this Well at the foot of the Hill, and church nearby, were dedicated to the Christian saint.

Our Uisneach event is sold out but get on the Sidhe yoga mailing list for future events. (Link in bio)

For attendees: Emails have been sent out with information about the event, make sure you have received yours xx

We released the details our Imbolc day retreat at Uisneach last night to our mailing list and it sold out overnight! Thank you to everyone who booked - we are so looking forward to hosting you in this magical place!
@katyharrisonyoga and I are so grateful to everyone who came with us on this journey over the past year 🤍🌱 Here are some clips from our Samhain retreat 💫

Our events run through the Celtic Calendar and they sell out quickly so if you are on our mailing list, you will be the first to hear the details. You can sign up using the link in my bio. We are planning some beautiful events and retreats for 2023 so watch this space.

The intention of the Imbolc retreat is to allow ourselves to be held in the belly of mother nature, at the spiritual centre of Ireland, the sacred Hill of Uisneach. The Goddess Brigid - who is celebrated at Imbolc and represents fertility, rebirth, new beginnings, renewal - has a strong connection to the Hill. We will be adding a cacao ceremony to our day this time, connecting with this ancient and potent, heart-opening plant medicine to nurture our selves and our hearts in the womb of the Goddess. We will meditate, practice yoga, hike, learn about the heritage of the Hill, share delicious treats, and of course join together with our Dad @jack_harrison_yoga_music of the @thecelticschoolofyoga to chant and sing and open to the potential and grace of this year.

If you have been before, you will know the magic of these events and how special the location is. So make sure to get on the Sidhe Yoga mailing list (link in bio) - hope you can join us next time 💫

The @saltyseasisters midlands meet up is this Satu

The @saltyseasisters midlands meet up is this Saturday 20th August! Come join us for a gorgeous morning with yoga, live performance, lake dip, community, along with beautiful blooms to enhance the experience 🌸

This is a donation based event to proceeds going to our local women’s shelter 🤍
Starts at 11am 🤍

I will be teaching “Flow like water” ~ a vinyasa flow centred upon the feminine element of water. This flow will embrace the innate softness and versatility of water, while allowing us to tap into our strength and generate an intensity to make our bodies warm and supple before jumping into the cool waters of Lough Owel. Yoga and cold water swimming are perfectly aligned - both are processes of getting into the body and allowing us to celebrate the present moment. 🌊

The practice is designed for off the mat practice, so no need for a mat 💫
