The Light Within
Anusara Yoga Retreat at Cabragh Lodge
Come & Let Your Little Light Shine!
Nestled in the rolling hills of Sligo, Cabragh Lodge is the venue for this retreat to self-discovery and renewal. This isn't just a great yoga retreat; it's a homecoming to your truest self with lots of yoga magic, summer abundance and time in nature.
Imagine waking to the misty mountain morning, the scent of earth and trees mingling in the air. As you step onto your mat, surrounded by the raw beauty of the Irish landscape, you'll feel a million miles away from the outside world. Here, in this sacred space, you'll dive deep into the transformative practice of Anusara Yoga, guided by my decades of yoga wisdom & love of yoga of the practice, and of course the long generous summer light.

What to Expect?
Over three days, you'll not only refine your yoga practice but also rediscover the joy of simply being and reconnect to the light that lives in your heart. This is the light of universal Consiousness that is innate in all things. We may not always be aware of this powerful source but luckily we have yoga - the practice of moving inwards to experience the brilliant light of Consciousness that lives in us as us. With a mix of heart-opening asanas to profound philosophical insights, every moment is an opportunity for growth and connection. And as the day winds down, you'll be nourished by delicious, lovingly prepared meals and the warmth of like-hearted company.
This retreat is a little bit different, and that's what makes it special. It is the final weekend of the 100 Hour Anusara Yoga Immersion. So, while many practitioners will be completing their training, there are a 6 places open for anyone who would like to join simply for the depth of experience.
This is more than a retreat. It's a pause in life's constant motion, a chance to align with your deepest purpose, your inner light and a springboard for lasting transformation.
