As one of Ireland’s most well-known and liked tv cooks and broadcasters each week, Aisling is a mainstay in homes and on commutes and walks each week with her TV, radio, social media and podcasts appearances.
Aisling has spent the last 15 years teaching, creating, learning, consulting and delivering on all things food and wellness and now she is thrilled to launch the first of her food and wellness experiences at the luxurious country location of Woodhouse Estate. Nestled in along the Copper Coast and the Waterford Greenway this is a stunning location to retreat to.
With mindfulness and wellness at the fore Aisling has planned the most wonderful day of self care, mindfulness, reflection, adventure, movement and fabulous food for you.
The whole day is a vibe. It is centred around a welcoming atmosphere making it the perfect place to develop new skills, meet like-minded people and experience stillness, nature, deliciousness and fun, all helping you to relax, reflect, reset and restore.
This immersive restorative day of self-care is limited to a small group, so everyone receives the space and time they require to get the most from the day. Take timeout to reconnect with your inner self and rejuvenate your mind, body and spirit.
Come on your own or with a friend; either way, it will be a great way to meet like-minded people and make new social connections.
