Do you want to Learn to Meditate but don't know where to start?.
.
NEWS - I've bopped the course out a few weeks so it's starting now Oct 16th then 23th and 30th. Super relaxed, informative, dare I say... fun evenings together cosy in the comfort of your home from 8pm. Lots of dorky jokes and lots of deep, philosophical and esoteric ancient wisdom - something for everyone! This really is unlocking a lifetime practice that you will then own. Empowered you will own your own capacity to take time when you need it to soothe our dizzy nervous systems - regulate, rest and reset.
.
We all need more of this and we all certainly know that the world needs more of this. But just pop me a message with any questions or pop a heart below and I'll DM you some no pressure information. Grá Mór and I'm really looking forward to seeing those of you already booked! Mx.

Very Presentable...Very Demure. But always mindful. Awareness is a superpower (thank you meditation!).
.
The weird thing about bravery is if you're doing it right, it feels like fear! I'm definitely in a period of shift and change at the minute with micro and macro decisions that feel fear filled and uncomfortable - we all go through these seasons of transition. Even though some of the things that feel scary to me wouldn't make another person blink - I honour their importance.
.
What's ironic though is often what we want to reject is what is actually best - the nervous system's tendency to prefer the familiar over all else can keep us repeating unhelpful but familiar behavioral patterns for decades.
.
Space to cultivate the capacity to observe ourselves is key, is a superpower. Sitting with yourself daily, befriending yourself and supporting yourself more to make the hard decision. And being compassionate throughout, always.

Sunday thoughts as I navigate life and fling myself into the eye of the storm. Learn to Meditate Online Course is nearly here 🙌🏼.

We know that social connection is one of the most powerful contributors to increasing our actual life longevity by up to FIFTY %, yes 50%. Each positive connection we make, boosts our cardiovascular, neuroendocrine, and immune systems, so that the more connections we make over time, the better we function.
.
Wellbeing goes far beyond just making that Pilates class or eating a few vegetables, we need to be wholeheartedly looking at the whole picture and if only incrementally... improving all areas, bit by bit. It ain't a dress rehearsal ....and thank you ailstephens for being your utterly fabulous forever friend self and giving us a reason to connect and celebrate YOU ❤️..

Einstein is a pretty good source of validation..."A human being is a part of the whole, called by us “Universe”, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest — a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle...".

Finally taking a moment to reflect on our dreamy summer at the beach. Our first one living a dream I've always had to recreate my childhood with my babies - sandy sandwiches, sunny smiles and swims galore. But OKay fine, summer - I admit it...you're over, but I'm coming for more of the same next year!.
.
This is just a miniscule snapshot from thousands of precious moments that mostly went uncaptured on a screen but were forever captured in my heart. A rich, present, wholesome time where wearing shoes was a rarity and a feeling of full body freedom on the beach was felt by all.
.
Yes, solo parenting two tinys was insane some of the time (important to flag reality) but there was such a pure utterly grateful infused happiness overarching. Friends, family, my incredible kids and a true escape from the tempo of city life. All the people I love in the place I love. Wexford our other home - thank you for the summer of dreams x.

If like me - you run around trying to soak up every sunshiney drop and do ALL the things when the sun shines (because we SHOULD)...then don't.
.
There is enough of a false sense of urgency woven into the fabric of daily life without the panic sunshine sometimes sprinkles on top. It's lovely n all but you know, protect that peace...at all costs!.
.
I was slipping into the quiet embrace of autumn chill and unprepared for the dizzy bizzy of this lil heatwave. Also where the hell did I put all those summer clothes. Remedy: don't believe the hype - be a rebel, go slow.
.
Rest Revolution!.

Help the old (er).
.
Empower them young.
.
Change your world.
.
We cannot change THE world overnight but we can change our way of living in this world, your micro culture impact and better support this lived experience in a conscious intentional way. Honestly, it's that big and usually requires some subtle tiny transformations.
.
It starts with awareness (hello meditation!). Grá Mór, Moons x.

Wow! I think we are all feeling the intensity of the post summer life acceleration! I'm pretty solo with the kids Monday to Friday so when I tell you I have ZERO time for more hashtagwellness 'should' chatter, I really mean I have ZERO actual time for it, I can't even keep up with knowing what I should be feeling guilty for not doing haha...
.
Wellbeing is an active pursuit that we all need to care for on an individual level - specific to your capacity and preference. But perhaps a post for another day! In short - when we are feeling overwhelmed the well intentioned list of more things we are not getting done is demoralizing to say the least, paralysing to say the worst.
.
But, there are some basic little daily rituals that I have returned to, have firmly placed back in my life to ensure I have better support. I share not to add to the noise but to share little accessible supports that are a big help to smooth the transition for me 🍂.
.
- make your bed (order, calm, escape)
- get sunlight (circadian rhythm bebé)
- kefir (gut lovin)
- supplements (get you & the kids on all the immune boosters)
- ground (get into your feet & out of your head)
- meditate (meditate, meditate & yes there's time!)
- rest (it can all wait, it really can)
- declutter (clear your space, clear your mind)
- pamper (post summer skin/hair glow up)
- plan (take control by getting that diary organized)
- feed (when times get busy, get organised with bulk prep of a Monday that's quick to hand for the week).
.
Big love, (big breaths) Mx.

Well...and clean, cook, tidy, find snacks, fight disrupt, tantrum dissolve, clean, cook, tidy, haul, repeat repeat repeat. But honestly, it was the first time in forever that we took a huge chunk of time out of the majority of external demands. Just me, us, family. Beach, no clocks, sandy floors, salty chips, tears, smiles and sunrises. Distill.
.
I'm changed because of it.
.
For a long time I've been disillusioned with the state of the world and the state of peoples ability to accept low key discomfort and global horror. Myself included! Shook, but muddling on. I want better and to show up as better for myself and others. I feel me again. Years of covid and baby bubble melting away.
.
And with consciously low demand placed on me, by me, I'm going to navigate myself back to a place where I'm off best service. How will that look? Time will tell. But I'm excited x.

Knowing what YOU need to help you be, well.
.
Why?.
.
You are a beautifully unique human with wonderfully individual needs and desires that constantly change.
.
Nothing Karen or Sharon does will perfectly fit your needs.
.
The noise outside is often so loud that faux wellness trends will shout you down with shoulds.
.
Life is too short for trial and error. We need to listen in, to get it right, to start now.
.
So much love from a summer of barefoot inner listening.

FLEADH 24 fleadhcheoil Wexford doing us proud with its sea side scene, pedestrian streets, musicians on every corner and the pubs providing incredible makeovers.

Rolling into it's last weekend where the finals will bring the elite of trad into the town. Personal POA would be a wander listen down main street with a coffee in hand from _thetrough_ , soak up the tunes and turn onto the quays for a delicious bite from the many tucks before strolling back by the tg4tv set up to wave at Granny before settling into theskyandtheground for a great set up for multiple seisúns galore. Then hit the beach! Enjoy! Mx.

Fake Monday Feels.
.
But how? This is where I, or your wellbeing facilitator comes in. Supporting you to support you in connecting, empowering, befriending yourself...it's where it all begins and ends.
.
It really is the journey through the self, to the self. Then, we are of better service to others and the world that very much needs us.

As Wellbeing Ambassador at cartonhouse.fairmont I get to meet a lot of beautiful humans who are visiting our fair isle and spending time retreating, resting and enjoying one of fairmonthotels finest European locations.
.
The lush and luxurious space just invites a heightened state of wellbeing and offers the perfect environment to do the work I love - introspectively assessing how things are, how things could be and how we can return to the world beyond gate in a more empowered way.
.
Weekend retreating, corporate care days, pop up events and classes. Speaking, moving, unlearning and breathing our way to better. Happy sigh. Happy Saturday!.

When none of it makes sense it. is. no-nsense. The world news is NO sense these days. I don't have all the answers but I can tell you that doubling down to soothe, comfort yourself compassionately and your people... helps.
.
A morning living my yoga, moving, not moving and being the human-itarian being that we need more of in the world, crying many tears and washing them away in nature's healing salty waters. I had help this morning so I intentionally created some morning space for myself without apology.
.
It's a lot. We have our own micro life challenges swimming amidst the global horror. It's a lot for many, too much. Go gently, plan what you neeeeed this weekend. Take back your power where you can.

The week that nearly broke me, but the hour that soothed my soul.
.
To disclaimer I am BEYOND obsessed with my kids and don't think anyone loves their children more than me, end of. You actually don't lads! But hell...two toddler humans on holidays solo is A LOT.
.
Never before have I felt my nervous system as shook. There's a slight curse of doing the work and being so fecking self aware. Watching the slow disintegration of my reactivity, my energy and my peace hahah ...alongside having to meet the normal demands without much wiggle room for change is ... A LOT.
.
But navigate we must, below are some of my go tos. I truly believe that no matter how intense the situation there are always pockets of power to reclaim here and there.
.
Breathing - do it cause we have to, do it cause we need to. Big deep ones. Physiological sighs. Candle/Flower breathing with the lil ones.
.
Hum - everyone needs to do this more. Group hug hum is big in our house, we all benefit and even those who don't partake feel the benefits from the collaborative vibes.
.
Meditation - yep, I always will mention. But stealing stillness where possible. They are eating, playing, going asleep, watching toons - dong grab the phone or dishes, sigh, sit and soothe.
.
Healthy Movement - healthy for our hearts, smiling moving/ crying moving haha... Move that energy by dancing in the kitchen, body weights with them watching Frozen, Roll out the mat beside them while they eat their lunch - get creative.
.
Go to BED - with them or shortly after. Especially if like me, they'll be up in an hour kicking you about your bed for the rest of the night. Don't be a fool - go to bed.
.
Other things that are controversial are a big glass of wine when you have achieved miniature human sleep, chocolate, shokz headphones for bg podcast and truly taking back time when you can potentially get relief from another adult. God speed my friends - ride those waves, even if the summer is making them waves of rainwater!!! Big love, Mx.
