A Practical Mysticism for a Busy World
Friday 4th July to Thursday 10th July 2025
The great mystic St Teresa famously said that “The Divine lives among the pots and pans”
Drawing on the wisdom of great mystics of both the past and present, this retreat seeks to bring mysticism ‘down to earth’ by exploring how a mystic, rather than being physically removed from the world, is one who in the midst of the every day, strives to see and experience God in every fleeting moment.
Facilitated by Dr Gráinne Doherty
Cost: €690
