'IONA ESSENCE' RETREATS


Hear the wind in the harp strings...

~~~~~~

A four day Spiritual Harp Retreat
 with 
Julie Darling and her Celtic harp
on the sacred
 Isle of Iona, 
Scotland
~~~~


“The earth has music for those who listen.” 
William Shakespeare

Hearing the breeze play the harp is magical; spending quiet time in reflection with harp music and the sounds of wind, wave and birdsong brings a sense of deep peace, is inspiring and life-giving.

Meditating with the harp on Iona brings a sense of drawing closer to The Great Mystery, of allowing the harp music to take us deeper into the heart of nature, the heart of the divine world that is our own true nature.


An annual retreat which takes place in May or June.
Please contact us for current dates.
(Contact Form below)


For five days in spring or early summer, you can deepen your spiritual journey with Julie Darling and the music of her harp, on one of the most sacred islands in the world. 

This ancient rock has seen pilgrims come with sacred intent to her shores since ancient times. Steeped in Celtic legend and history, Iona draws us into a space where we can find peace, find truth and hear the wisdom of our hearts.

Add the haunting sound of the Celtic harp, interwoven with the nature sounds of this wild place, and you have the ingredients for a unique and powerful experience.

Your Five Day Retreat Fee includes:

  • Daily Spiritual Harp Meditation sessions
  • Meditation with the harp on the seashore, and at sacred sites on the island (weather permitting) including The White Strand, St Oran's Chapel and The Nunnery
  • Indoor venue overlooking the sea, just two minutes from the shore 
  • Workshop sessions on Celtic spirituality
  • Working with Julie Darling's Vibrational Celtic Harp Essences for Meditation
  • Make your own Vibrational Flower Essence on the Isle of Iona (optional)
  • Light refreshments provided during the day

Please Note: Places will be limited to eight people only, for this retreat. A non-refundable deposit of £60 secures your place. Please fill in the Request Form below for more information and booking details.

Accommodation

This is a non-residential retreat so you will need to book your own accommodation for your stay on the island. There is accommodation on Iona to suit a variety of budgets and preferences, from hotels, bed and breakfast, self-catering, the award - winning eco-hostel and a campsite. You can of course, stay as long as you like on the island, if you prefer to extend your stay beyond the Retreat Days. It is best not to leave booking until the last minute....
