Danu Retreat – Honouring the Fluid Potential Within Us All
Sara Devoy & Lynn Murphy
Dates: 12th-14th September 2025
Location
Heir Island Retreat, Off West Cork Coast
Includes
We will gather where land meets sea, on the wild beauty of Heir Island,
To soften, to breathe, to return to ourselves.
Inspired by Danu—the goddess of water and earth—
We remember our own rhythms, our tides, our inner seasons.
This weekend retreat is an invitation—
For women at every stage of life—to move gently,
To rest deeply, to listen within.
Each day we will walk the land,
Letting the landscape speak to us,
Carving out space for solitude or sisterhood.
In the studio, we weave yoga, movement, and breath
Into a nourishing tapestry that soothes the nervous system
And reconnects the wisdom of body and mind.
Here, less effort brings more ease.
Here, your body becomes your teacher.
Here, you’re held in a circle of softness.
Whether you're navigating your cycle,
Motherhood, menopause—or simply seeking space—
You are welcome. You are enough. You belong.
We will move, breathe, and be still together.
Stories shared, Yoga Nidra whispered,
Come as you are. Leave a little more yourself.

Lynn Murphy
I developed my approach under the umbrella of the Active Birth Centre which I ran as co-director for many years alongside Janet Balaskas. Here I was able to support parents-to-be as they prepared for birth and parenthood in that beautiful space which sadly, due to Covid, we closed in June 2020.
My yoga is Scaravelli inspired, focusing on the idea that less (effort) brings more (ease), and that our bodies are always learning and evolving. The space we enter in yoga is a place to become more in touch with ourselves and breathe. A woman’s body often craves a more gentle and playfully nurturing approach, something more fluid and rounded never more so than during pregnancy and motherhood, this time is a rich terrain for discovering new ways to relate to our bodies, ourselves..
