The words of beloved Irish poet and author John O'Donohue will inspire conversation and contemplation, and a walk in the Arboretum forest, weather permitting.
If you are new to O'Donohue but appreciate nature, poetry, or the ancient wisdom of the Celts, you will enjoy the serenity of this mini–retreat with reatreat and workshop leader Meg Gallagher. Followers of John O'Donohue will feel at home. Irish tea service included. Bring a journal.
Advance registration required.
Meet Your Guide
Meg Gallagher
I am a writer, spiritual retreat leader, certified life coach and personal development trainer. I enjoy creating retreats and workshops, whether the theme is provided to me or if I am asked to create something special for a group. My retreats and workshops are interactive and include space for small groups, quiet time, and 1:1 conversation.
BACKGROUND
I grew up on Staten Island and began a career in New York City right out of high school. I enjoyed a successful career as business executive, event manager and marketing specialist in both the corporate and nonprofit worlds. Now a certified life coach and personal development trainer, I live on Maryland’s Eastern Shore with my husband, Patrick and our cat, Charlotte. I enjoy helping others and belong to the Wisdom Circle at The Retreat House, a contemplative community that offers spiritual direction.
