'IONA ESSENCE' RETREAT



Hear the wind in the harp strings...
~~~~~~

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

~~~~~



6th - 10th June 2016



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.


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

For five days in 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)
  • A simple meal will be provided on the first evening
  • Light refreshments provided during the day
