The Rose Path: Iona Women's Retreat

‘If you feel the call of Iona, then answer that call and make the journey to her. She is like a very old Crone, rocky and barren and eternally loving and gentle and tough and wise. She is very old. She is very holy. There is no other place on earth quite like Iona.’

-  Elinore Detiger

​

In the beginning of 2022, Iona called me. She whispered to me from inside my heart to come and visit her. I followed the call and in July last year I arrived at her ancient shores to spend some solo time on the island.

What followed was a magical week of deep connection with Mother Earth, a week of deep rest and rejuvenation, beautiful soul meetings and magical encounters with dolphins, whales and the spirits of the land. During the last days of my stay I again heard a whisper inside my heart, that said:

‘Will you take a group of women to Iona next year?’

​

I did not have to think twice about my answer and a few months later I'm so happy to share

'The Rose Path: Iona Women's Retreat' with you.

This retreat is an invitation for all women who feel the call of Iona and wish to join me for a week full of magic, music, wild nature, ceremony, stillness & rest together
