Event description

5 Elements Movement & Mindfulness Class: Re-connect and Ground - through gentle breathe work, easy exercise moves, grounding meditation, fluid yoga poses & finish with fun dance moves with our Silent Disco at Grattan beach.

Using our senses we go on a playful & creative journey to re-connect to ourselves and the beautiful nature that surrounds us.

Drawing wisdom from the ancient native tradition of the ‘Celtic nature wheel’ we connect to the elements fire, water, earth, air and ether.

In the SOUTH we explore the element FIRE and the Sun, through easy exercise poses led by well known personal trainer & fitness instructor Sarah Thornton from SoulMoves, that allow this energy to be activated within our bodies to cleanse, revitalise and get moving.

In the WEST we connect to the element of WATER - turning inwards we allow the waters around us to connect to our inner waters. Using gentle movement practices, Johanne Webb family constellation facilitator & theatre, a well known figure in Macnas and the Arts Festival maker guides us to sense our inner voice, stories we need to release and allow to flow on.

In the NORTH we connect to the element of EARTH - sinking deeply into our bodies and rooting into a place of peace .

GWD Ambassador Karin Müller, Mindfulness teacher & holistic practitioner leads us through a deeply grounding meditation practice, connecting to the energy of the mountains to help us stabilize .

We co create a beautiful PEACE MANDALA with pebbles, shells, flowers and leaves from our surroundings, representing and giving gratitude to the gifts earth has to offer us and how we are stronger together.

In the EAST we connect to the element of AIR - renowned yoga & meditation teacher Larragh Cunningham from Yoga Shala guides us using a simple breath exercise & yoga poses to activate our prana and open our third eye to see clearly. Using our breath to energize & connect.

Finally we celebrate the element ETHER - connecting all the elements together & our own inner heart space.

Join us in a joyful SILENT DISCO & SONG at Grattan beach with Donal Mc Connon aka ‘Curly Organ’, Galway based visual artist and musician to celebrate life itself.

I’m so excited to represent Ireland as GWD Ambassador this year. Helping people reconnect to themselves, recognise their purpose and find their own voice to shine and contribute is something I’m very passionate about.

I believe that this year's theme MAGENTA NATURE- allowing us to explore ways of re-connection to nature is particularly important.

Reconnecting to the nature around us helps us to find peace and a possibility to re connect to ourselves. When we see clearly the treasures that our environment holds for us, when we understand it and value it & are passionate about it - we will make it a personal mission to protect it.

Whether its identifying culinary and medicinal herbs on a foraging walk in a maze of green we usually see as weeds; teaching kids nature crafts, learning about plant based nutrition or the vital part seed saving and bee preservation has on our eco system or simply letting loose at a dance on the beach - these all play a vital part as seeing ourselves as an invaluable extension of nature.

Karin is passionate about empowering people to reconnect to themselves and the environment through promoting wellness and community initiatives.
