The Healing Arts Calling
Welcome to the world of Healing Arts! Our approach to healing, wellbeing and spiritual alignment is deeply rooted in the earth and the elements that surround us.
It's all about returning to your true self, unraveling habits that lead to burnout and illness, and unlearning everything that doesn't align with who you are. This path will help you build a stronger connection with your inner self and discover what truly matters to you.
Consider it a form of rehabilitation that helps you live naturally and allows your body and soul to thrive. As you embark on this journey, you will gradually begin to understand the intricate connections between the earth, the seas, the planets, the skies, and your own elements.
It's about remembering what it means to be human and finding your place in the vast cosmic space we inhabit. Our Healing Arts path is designed to be developed within the natural elements and terrain surrounding us. We draw on the wisdom and knowledge of our ancestors, who observed and were present with the elements, opening up channels to the worlds within and around them.
Join us on this journey of self-discovery and healing, where you will find yourself feeling more grounded, connected, and in tune with the natural rhythms of the world.
Slí an Bhean Feasa
Enter the magical world of the Bean Feasa! These powerful women serve their community by tapping into their own unique skills and creating a bridge between the human and spirit worlds. They dwell in the sacred "space in between."
Their abilities may range from mending bodies and spirits, to guiding others through life's transitional phases, to offering spiritual counsel and channelling divine messages. Sometimes, it's as simple as holding space for another woman, sharing a cup of tea by the flickering flames of a warm fire.
The original Bean Feasa, An Chailleach, is an ancient wise woman who is said to have formed the very earth we walk upon. She is the divine mother, the source of the creative force that pulses throughout the cosmos. From the mountains she created, fire and water are born, and her breath is the very consciousness that flows within and around us.
In her lighter form, she is known as Brigid, the goddess who guards over the lands of our ancestors, watches over the animals, and teaches us how to dive deeper during times of turbulence and uncertainty.
As women evolve into the role of the Bean Feasa, they become imbued with the same wisdom and power that radiates from An Chailleach. Her essence flows through their very beings, empowering them to make a difference in their communities and beyond.

Before You Begin...
Are you ready to embark on a journey of healing and growth with us at Teampall Croí na Mara? But before you take the leap, we want to be upfront and honest: this program is not for everyone.
Our unique training is curated with the utmost care and respect for the Healing Arts of Ireland. We've put in years of hard work to preserve the integrity of these ancient practices, and we expect our students to uphold the same level of respect and dedication.
As practitioners, we understand the weight of our actions and the impact they can have on the reputation of the Healing Arts and traditional practices of the land. We take this responsibility seriously, and we expect our apprentices to do the same.
At Teampall Croí na Mara, we have zero tolerance for disrespect towards the natural world and its inhabitants, including community members, students, clients, and the wider community. That's why we ask our apprentices to follow and contribute to our code of ethics.
But don't worry, we're not here to tell you what to believe or how to live your life. We don't ask our community members or students to hold specific spiritual beliefs, restrict their diets, take social or political stands, or discuss private medical information.
We understand that each of us has our own unique lived experiences and beliefs, and we respect that. What matters to us is that we all share a deep connection to the Healing Arts and a commitment to personal growth and development.
So if you're ready to join us on this journey, we welcome you with open arms. Let's embark on this adventure together and see where it takes us!
