About this event
In Gaelic, the word for Solstice is “Grianstad,” meaning “sun-stop” or “sun standing still” Join Nadine McCarthy, leadership and performance coach, on Winter Solstice for an intimate and special in-person workshop dedicated to pausing, letting go and dreaming the new.
In ancient Ireland, the Winter Solstice marked a significant turning point that honoured the powerful forces of both darkness and light. On the darkest day of the year, the promise of the summer and a brighter future was born in the returning light at dawn. A symbol of hope and a time of great celebration for our ancestors, Solstice marked the beginning of the Celtic Dreamtime, the hope of new and brighter futures.
In this dawn to dusk workshop Nadine will use a combination of contemporary coaching methodologies, self-leadership exercises, reflective practices, nature-based activities and group dialogue to help you envision a bright and hope-filled future. It will provide you with the space and time to stand still and reflect on what you would like to let go of and start to dream the new for yourself, be that in work or life.
“This is a day to dream and be dreamed”
