\"Scottish<\/p>\n

As we welcome 2024 into our lives, I wanted to share with you a traditional Scottish New Year’s blessing…<\/p>\n

“Lang may yer lum reek<\/em>” is a wish for a long and happy life that literally means “long may your chimney smoke.” And Hogmanay is the name of the Scots’ New Year’s celebration.<\/p>\n

The Isles of Scotland, Ireland and Britain are some of the most popular places we visit, so it’s no surprise that there has been a very positive response to this year’s tours across the pond. We’ve already reached maximum numbers for the\u00a0Mysterious Wales<\/em><\/a>\u00a0tour in May and registrations for\u00a0Enchanted Ireland<\/em>\u00a0<\/a>and\u00a0Sacred Scotland<\/em><\/a>\u00a0are not far behind.<\/p>\n

On our soul journeys, our small groups travel through some of the most beautiful parts of the countryside, including places known only to a few. We visit early Celtic Christian and pagan sites such as holy wells, enchanted forests, stone circles, dolmens of the dead and fairy mounds \u2013 all with a story to tell. In these magical places we create the space for you to connect with your own inner wisdom, to receive messages from the ancestors, messages that have meaning for you in this lifetime. We provide you with information about the sacred sites, but the real experience is how you respond to the emotions the landscapes and sites bring forth as you pass through the veil of time.<\/p>\n

Body Mind Spirit Journeys and our partners in the U.K. would love to have your company on one of this year’s tours. For more information follow the links below which take you to the web page where you can download full itineraries.<\/p>\n
