Each moment is an opportunity to meet ourselves anew...over and over and over again.

In this way, the Self unfolds & emerges from a place of unknowing...

Homecoming retreat is a deep dive into the most fundamental question..'๐–๐ก๐จ ๐š๐ฆ ๐ˆ?

From 9th -13th October 2026, we will gather as individuals, each of us coming with our own personal histories, questions & quiet hopes...

In transpersonal psychology, we hold a belief that nothing is random & so we come to see that each individual showing up on this weekend are a necessary & important thread of the co-created experience that is HOMECOMING..so in essence Homecoming is not an event in & of itself, it emerges in the unfolding moment that arises in and through the very individuals who show up to create it...this is THE UNTHOUGHT KNOWN!

We are each a thread in the tapestry of HOMECOMING..your presence matters.. we dont need to know the why or the how of it...the logical mind always wants certainty & my invitation to you is to trust in a deeper knowing that had you choose this particular retreat at this particular time with these particular people..the soul is always trying to breakthrough & it does so in ways we often don't understand ๐Ÿ’ซ

This is what makes each HOMECOMING gathering so magical & unique..as facilitators, whilst we may have a schedule & plan, what arises over the weekend is as much a mystery to us and that's what makes it an unforgettable experience.

Thank you to the beautiful souls who found their way to this work, we cant wait to see and share in this experience with you ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿซถโœจ๏ธ

Early bird available until 31st July. If you're feeling the call but unsure, reach out to Eloise directly & see if its a right fit for you.

๐ŸŽ“ UCC student graduation...A kind of pivotal moment that is everything & nothing & has stirred up my own curiosity about life & who we are within it..(buckle up, we're going deep!).

If the 15 year old & 23 year old me could see me now...
From struggling to sit in English class in secondary school, to dropping out of college at 18, to collapsing in a heap of shame on the toilet floor in UCD because I couldn't speak in class, to falling apart in one of my own lectures on Polyvagal theory a few years ago.. the idea of me being part of faculty on stage in UCC with fellow academics was simply a stretch so far beyond my lived experience that I found myself on this day in UCC giggling at the ridiculousness of it all..

Its the great cosmic joke..where moments like this are everything & nothing all at once...a moment that I felt really proud of, not only for the students but for the previous me's who had to go through the torment to get here and yet, it was just a moment in time, it means nothing and doesnt define me or my life in any way!! There is ๐’๐ฎ๐œ๐ก ๐Ÿ๐ซ๐ž๐ž๐๐จ๐ฆ ๐ข๐ง ๐ก๐จ๐ฅ๐๐ข๐ง๐  ๐Ÿ ๐จ๐ฉ๐ฉ๐จ๐ฌ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ญ๐ซ๐ฎ๐ญ๐ก๐ฌ ๐š๐ฅ๐ฅ ๐š๐ญ ๐จ๐ง๐œ๐ž๐Ÿ•Š

Which brings me on to the notion that ..๐‹๐ข๐Ÿ๐ž ๐ฆ๐š๐ค๐ž๐ฌ ๐ฆ๐จ๐ซ๐ž ๐ฌ๐ž๐ง๐ฌ๐ž ๐ข๐ง ๐ซ๐ž๐ฏ๐ž๐ซ๐ฌ๐ž...maybe the struggles we go through contain the seed of our potential, which without the struggles, would we do or be what we are doing or being right now??

AND

This idea that we are striving for self actualization, like its some kind of end point, is a dangerous and false narrative that can hem us in to one narrow view of who we are in life. I wonder if its more a case of continually arriving, so much so that the moment we attain our aspirations & goals is the exact moment the goalposts shift again towards another new arriving..therefore we have the capacity, ษดแดแด› แด›แด ๊œฑแด‡สŸ๊œฐ แด€แด„แด›แดœแด€สŸษช๊œฑแด‡ ส™แดœแด› แด›แด ส™แด‡ แด„แดษดแด›ษชษดแดœแด€สŸสŸส ๊œฑแด‡สŸ๊œฐ แด€แด„แด›แดœแด€สŸษช๊œฑษชษดษข??

AND then I read this quote yesterday which sums the whole thing up...

"๐•„๐•’๐•ช๐•“๐•– ๐•จ๐•– ๐•’๐•ฃ๐•– ๐•Ÿ๐• ๐•ฅ ๐••๐•ฃ๐•–๐•’๐•ž๐•š๐•Ÿ๐•˜ ๐•ฅ๐•™๐•– ๐••๐•ฃ๐•–๐•’๐•ž, ๐•š๐•ฅ ๐•š๐•ค ๐•ฅ๐•™๐•– ๐••๐•ฃ๐•–๐•’๐•ž ๐•ฅ๐•™๐•’๐•ฅ ๐••๐•ฃ๐•–๐•’๐•ž๐•ค ๐•ฆ๐•ค"

You are way more than you think!

We often think our identity comes from what happened to us..our history..our timeline..our story.

This is the ๐๐ข๐จ๐ ๐ซ๐š๐ฉ๐ก๐ข๐œ๐š๐ฅ self - the facts of our life: past, present, future.

But transpersonal psychology invites a deeper question..itโ€™s not just what happened to us, itโ€™s how we experienced those happenings.

This is the ๐๐ก๐ž๐ง๐จ๐ฆ๐ž๐ง๐จ๐ฅ๐จ๐ ๐ข๐œ๐š๐ฅ self- the meaning we make, the way we and were shaped by the events in our lives.

And over time, those lived meanings shape different parts of us - subpersonalities that become active modes of being that live inside us and still show up today...the inner critic, the inner child, the judge, the high achiever, the rebel, etc.

AND thereโ€™s yet another layer.

The โ€œIโ€ - the observing self -the part of us that can notice our thoughts, our reactions, our patterns across time. This "I" is not defined by any past events, is neither the roles nor the stories but the one who is aware of them.

So we have 2 ways of experiencing the same SELF:
โ€ข The SELF in the experience that changes depending on the context & feels different across situations &
โ€ข The SELF that notices the experience.

Psychosynthesis reminds us that we are shaped by our experiences but we are not limited to them. We are not fixed..we are fluid & move in & out of different roles and ways of experiencing the same moments.

Our SELF is not "Who I am"...its "the journey I am"..the Self is unfolding through time & continuously being shaped, re-shaped, interpreted & re-expressed.

Understanding SELF in this way matters because it loosens the grip of the past..we begin to see that our life is not just a story weโ€™re trapped inside,
but something we are actively living, sensing, and shaping.

And in that space of awareness, something shifts-
We are no longer only what happened to us, we can see our difficult experiences without being consumed or defined by them.

So rather than ask "Who am I?", we ask "who I am NOW?" With that question, we can respond rather than react to our circumstances.

This is ๐๐ฌ๐ฒ๐œ๐ก๐จ๐ฅ๐จ๐ ๐ข๐œ๐š๐ฅ ๐Ÿ๐ซ๐ž๐ž๐๐จ๐ฆ.

We dive deep into this at our Homecoming retreat.
