Shambala Holistic Retreat Centre

The natural healing force in each one of us is the greatest force in getting well

Shambala: A Restorative Wellness Retreat in Northern Ireland

Welcome to Shambala, a premier wellness retreat in Northern Ireland located alongside the shores of Upper Lough Erne. We provide a sanctuary for those seeking to relax and re-energise through professional holistic care.

Ray of Light  was founded by Sukhada Smith-Repass in 2006 and became Shambala Holistic & Retreat Centre in 2012. We are located alongside the shores of Upper Lough Erne in Derrylin, Co. Fermanagh.

I have been doing holistic therapies since 1999 & teach Reiki. I am passionate about my work & do the therapies because I want to help people. I am constantly updating my skills.

Holistic therapy is a natural non-invasive treatment, which works to restore and maintain natural balance to the body, leading to self-healing and confidence.

By taking a holistic approach, we aim to treat people as individuals, rather than symptoms. We can review your lifestyle so that you can make positive changes to benefit your health and help you to relax, unwind and re-energise.

Holistic therapies are the perfect way to reduce your stress levels

Join us for your next wellness retreat in Northern Ireland and discover the natural healing force within.
