At only €20 including lunch and refreshments these will be well worthwhile. A nice gift for a person in your life who is stressed?

These relaxing days offer time to take stock, review where you are and set your intentions for the future. The nurturing environment of Chrysalis is an ideal backdrop for this day of retreat and renewal. We genuinely want to offer practical support for these times and the day is priced to encourage maximum participation.”
