In Devotion: A Four-Day Retreat in Ireland
20- 23 July 2026
In Devotion is a four-day retreat exploring love, beauty, and offering in the Emerald Isle.
I feel a strong longing to create a space for myself and others that is not about processing, fixing, or becoming better—but about resting in the simple joy of being, and from that place opening into prayer as life.
In my life, I am deeply inspired by experiences of beauty, devotion, and reverence. I long for the capacity of my heart to pour itself
into the world—through humans, trees, and springs.
Flowers. Sunlight. Song.
These four days will focus on the simple joy of being and embodied stillness.
We will explore:
Rest · Stillness · Joy · The Ecstasy of Subtleness · Prayer
We will share food through devotional cooking and spend time with the land, ourselves, and one another.
Nestled in the mountains of Ireland, we are surrounded by sacred springs, ancient stone circles, and the quiet magic of this land.
This retreat is open to all genders, bodies, and life experiences.
The Venue
Muchlagh Lodge is a beautifully restored 18th-century Georgian country house in the rolling hills near Rathdrum, County Wicklow, in the heart of Ireland’s “Garden of Ireland.”
"The showers draw their water from the earth. A deep well supplies clean, delicious water to the Lodge, making a shower or bath at Muchlagh a therapy in itself."
Nearby ancient sites to explore:
Castleruddery Stone Circle – 5,000-year-old Druidic stone circle with quartz stones
Church Mountain – Ancient cairn and Christian pilgrimage site with a summit holy well
Holy Wells & Fairy Forts – Scattered throughout Wicklow
