Wellbeing & Mindfulness in Belfast

Wellbeing options around Belfast tend to mean getting out of the city rather than staying in it. Out at Newtownards, Holistic Retreat Centre Embrace has woodland walks through 80,000 trees and a lakeside spot to sit by, hired out by the hour or the day, which suits anyone wanting a proper stretch of quiet rather than a quick class. Closer in, at Newtownabbey, Immeasurable Minds runs guided meditation and morning mindfulness sessions, plus weekend retreats on the Antrim coast. If you just want an hour to yourself, the morning mindfulness sessions at Immeasurable Minds are the easier fit, being nearer the centre and not asking for a whole day. If you can give up more time, the woodland and lake at Embrace reward a slower pace, and paying by the hour or the day means you can match it to how much space you actually need. Neither is aimed at children, so treat both as time carved out for the adults.
