5 Summer Yoga and Meditation Workshops
Life seems to slow down in the summer. If we’re lucky, the sun is shining and we can have lunch outside, visit the beach, or go for a long walk. If you have a day to spare this summer, perhaps you could consider one of these workshops taking place across Ireland. Workshops are a great way to delve a little deeper into your practice without spending a fortune. You are bound to learn something new with a different teacher.
