The Echoes of Lúnasa Retreat draws inspiration from nature's transformative power. Guided by the four elements: Earth, Water, Fire, and Air, and rooted in permaculture principles, it blends wisdom with renewal.

Each day offers a journey of connection, reflection, and growth, with the elements guiding meaningful practices:

  • Earth: Fostering observation, grounding, and resilience, Earth encourages us to "Observe and Interact" with our surroundings.

  • Water: Teaching flow, adaptability, and energy cycles, Water reflects "Catch and Store Energy" and "Apply Self-Regulation."

  • Fire: Symbolizing transformation and vitality, Fire inspires us to "Creatively Use and Respond to Change."

  • Air: Promoting breath, integration, and perspective, Air aligns with diversity, edges, and small impactful solutions.

Like a permaculture system, this retreat is designed to be sustainable and nourishing. From shared meals to walking the land and gathering in circles, every moment fosters reciprocity with the Earth and each other.
