Ireland is best known for its stunning natural landscapes. From the rolling green fields that give it the title of Emerald Isle to the storm lashed coastlines, Ireland’s untamed wilds are unmatched in beauty. 1500 years ago, Ireland was partially covered by glacial ice. Moving across the landscape, the glacial ice scraped away the soil creating rocky landscapes such as the Burren in Co. Clare, a Karst limestone landscape originating from a 365-million-year-old tropical seabed.

Fit and Healthy Journey’s “Harmonies of the Emerald Isle” Retreat seeks to take you on the road less traveled. Together we will explore not only the hidden gems of Ireland but also look within ourselves to gain both inner and outer peace.

Mary was born in Skibbereen, a small village in Cork, near the most southern coast of Ireland. The beautiful countryside and peaceful nature of Ireland makes it a natural location to create a relaxing and renewing retreat.
