What we’re about
We are a community of like hearted beings who come together to practice mindfulness in order to take care of ourselves, nourish happiness, and contribute to building a healthier and a more compassionate society.
While Red Robin Sangha Cork draws its inspiration from the Zen Buddhist teachings of Thich Nhat Hanh, our community is focused on practice and not on beliefs or ideology. We are open to all who hold an aspiration to transform themselves and contribute to a more healthy and compassionate society. We honour the unique roots of every individual and you can join as a Buddhist, Christian, Hindu, Jew, or Muslim as well as an agnostic, atheist or member of any other religious or spiritual grouping.
To cover the costs of room rental we ask for donations from attendees. In Buddhist tradition is called Dana.
Suggested donation is €5 to €10 euro.

Awakening with Spring Mindfulness Meditation Retreat
Scala, Castle rd,, Cork, IEAwakening with Spring: Half-Day Mindfulness Retreat for Renewal
🗓️When: Saturday, 7th February 2026, ⏰ 9:30 AM - 1:30 PM
📍Where: Scala Retreat Centre, Blackrock, Cork
Description:
As February marks the earliest whispers of spring's return, we invite you to a half-day mindfulness retreat honoring your own quiet emergence.
In the stillness of winter's end, discover the courage to meet yourself with fresh awareness. Through meditation, gentle movement, walking in nature, and cultivating compassion as spring returns, we'll explore what it means to awaken—not once, but moment by moment—to the aliveness already present within you.
☀️THE MORNING INCLUDES:
- Opening meditation & gentle mindful movement to awaken the body
- Mindful eating practice—a simple, profound practice for daily life
- Walking meditation in nature, connecting with earth's renewal
- Compassion meditation & reflective inquiry
- Loving-kindness infused full body relaxation
- Poetry & song woven throughout as the language of the soul
💰INVESTMENT:
Early Bird: €60 (book by 28th January) Full Price: €70
BOOK EARLY to save €10 AND guarantee your space! We keep numbers limited to create an intimate, supportive experience, and these half-day retreats tend to book out quickly. Don't miss out—secure your place at the early bird rate.
🥗NOURISHMENT FOR BODY & SOUL:
During the morning, enjoy lovingly prepared homemade snacks made with fresh, seasonal ingredients. We believe caring for the body is inseparable from caring for mind and spirit—each bite prepared with attention and intention.
📓WHAT YOU'LL TAKE HOME:
- Practical mindfulness techniques for daily life
- The mindful eating practice to bring into everyday meals
- Compassion practices for meeting yourself with kindness
- A deeper connection to the present moment
- A felt sense of your own capacity for renewal
🧘WHO SHOULD ATTEND:
Everyone! This retreat welcomes both experienced meditators looking to deepen their practice and those completely new to mindfulness. We'll create a supportive space where you can explore at your own pace, meeting yourself exactly where you are.
No previous experience necessary. Just bring an open heart and a willingness to be present.
