Sliabh Bhuí Sanctuary

A Space to Pause

I’ve been slowly creating a new space at home, and I am delighted to reveal that I’ve called it Sliabh Bhuí Sanctuary.

Around 25 years ago, I moved to my home at the foothills of Sliabh Bhuí, Yellow Mountain. The name comes from the gorse that once covered the hill.

Sliabh Bhuí has changed a lot over the years, with much of the gorse cleared for farming and Sitka spruce now covering most of the hillside. But there are still places where the gorse and heather grow, along with areas of beautiful, deciduous woodland. It’s a place I’ve become deeply connected to. Somewhere I walk, run, and get to immerse myself in nature, a place where I go to simply be.

When I started thinking about creating a space here at home, I wanted to bring a little of what this land means to me into the space, and I thought what better way then to name it after the hill I love so much.
My intention is to bring some of that feeling into the space too, the connection to the land, and the feeling of being able to slow down, and simply be.

For now, I’m offering Reiki by appointments, with 1:1 yoga and small group practices to come.

I’m really looking forward to welcoming people into the space.

Sliabh Bhuí, Co. Wexford

Gorse and heather still cover parts of the hill, along with a spectacular, magical wood. And at the top of Slievegower Hill, John Byrne’s memorial bench offers a special place for contemplation a place to pause, take in the view and appreciate this little part of the world I call home.

And here it is, Sliabh Bhuí Sanctuary🌿

For now, this little space is open for Reiki by appointment, with small group practice to come when the time feels right.

    I absolutely love Vanessa’s classes. I love that they’re relaxed and lighthearted whilst bringing you home to your body. We live in such a fast paced world so these yoga classes are a lovely, grounding escape from that.

    I struggle with being in my body so I’m finding this class really helpful for this, while also bringing space into my physical body which is so helpful.

    I feel privileged to have been a part of Vanessa’s classes so far and I’m looking forward to attending them going forward

    I leave Vanessa’s classes feeling so grounded and my mind feels slower, no matter what kind of day I had on the lead up to it. I would highly recommend Vanessa’s classes to anyone who wants to relax their minds and really tune into what their body needs

    I needed the class more than I knew and came out feeling much lighter and aligned physically and mentally. I am really enjoying embodied yoga as I like the meditation element of the class also. The class really flows naturally and you allow each person to practice at their own ability. I am looking forward to the next class and am so proud to see you following your dream.

    Love Vanessas Yoga classes really exactly what my body needs. Slow embodied. She is wonderful teacher.Her passion and personality shine through at all times and I really look forward to her classes. I feel I have a lot more awareness of my own body and emotions after starting her classes.

    Vanessa is an authentic, passionate and knowledgeable yoga instructor. From the moment you step into her class she makes you feel at ease and able to leave behind the daily stresses and focus on time for yourself and your body for the duration of the class.She teaches you to work with where your body is at, at that moment rather than trying to get to get into a pose that is uncomfortable or too stressful. The class is a mixture of relaxation and centering and yoga moves that target specific areas.

    I've been attending Yoga classes with Vanessa, and it's been a truly wonderful experience. Her sessions are deeply relaxing and help me release both physical and emotional tension. Vanessa has such a calm and soothing voice that makes it easy to let go, unwind, and fully immerse yourself in the practice. I always leave her classes feeling peaceful, refreshed, and recharged. I highly recommend Vanessa to anyone who wants to experience the true benefits of Yoga Nidra and find inner balance.
