Labyrinth on the Beach

Dear friends, come join me next Wednesday in the most beautiful location- Drumnatinney beach - and we will walk the labyrinth. 

The labyrinth is an ancient method, used in many cultures, for stepping into sacred space. Often used as a walking meditation or mindfulness practice, it can also be a type of prayer or symbolic pilgrimage. Unlike the maze, the labyrinth has a single path leading to the centre. 

In this gathering, we will connect in circle, set intention and walk the labyrinth for healing and support. This is a simple but very powerful ritual. No special experience is needed. Anyone can take part. 

I'm offering this event on a donation basis: pay what you can. Please do book though, for logistical reasons: text 00353 857853699. The gathering will last around 90 minutes but may be a little longer or shorter depending on group size. Please bring something to sit on (e.g. folding chair or towel) and dress for the exposed location (a jacket and a sunhat might be a good start).

Meeting at the car park at 10.30am to walk onto the beach together.

A space to move however you want to move and to rest when you need to rest. Freestyle dance; your body, your moves, your way. Everyone welcome. Different facilitator/playlist each week

A relaxed space in which to have a chat about death... bereavement, funerals, afterlife, preparing for death, witnessing death.... Anything and everything related to death and dying. Everyone is welcome and there's always cake.

This time, we will have an hour-long death cafe followed by a grief ceremony. You are welcome to come to both parts or to either.

Want to be kept in the loop about the Death Cafe dates? Join our WhatsApp group: message me on 0857853699

The shamanic circle is taking a little break for the summer. We'll be back in August. Text me if you'd like to be updated on circle happenings: 0857853699

I'm delighted with the beautiful shamanic community we are building through this circle. We continue to meet in Monday evenings in the wonderful Song House. There are a few spaces for new people to join but booking is essential.

This is a space in which to explore shamanism and participate in a healing community. So far, we've had a mix of people who are new to shamanism, very experienced practitioners, and those in between.

Each session will include journeying with the drum and sharing in circle (as much or as little as you wish). There will also be ceremony, nature connection, working with spirits, and healing.

Who is it for? 

•For those who are curious about shamanism

•For those experienced in shamanic work who want to regularly connect in circle with others

•For those who are interested in personal development, healing and earth-centred spirituality 

Not sure if it's for you? I'm happy to talk you through what to expect and answer any questions. 

*What to expect

•Focusing inward on the wisdom of your heart. 

•Connecting with others in the circle

•Shamanic journeying with the drum

•Simple ceremony for healing and transformation

•Connection with spirit guides

•Honouring the wisdom of nature and the seasons 

 Maximum number of participants is 13 so booking is important. 

You can book in advance for the four sessions at a cost of €40

Or book for a single session for €15

MEDITATION FOR WORLD PEACE

Join in this guided meditation from your own home, at any time.

At this time, when we are all so aware of the great need for peace in the world, I offer this simple meditation. Peace is everyone's responsibility. If I want to see peace in the world, then I need to be that peace. It starts with me. I may have little control over armies and world leaders but I am fully responsible for my own inner state. Peace is not simply an absence of war. It is an active state. It comes from fully facing into the way things are, and takes courage and awareness. If you would like to try this guided meditation, give yourself about 15 mins, sitting or lying in a comfortable position. You may need to pause here and there until you are ready to move on to the next stage. And let me know how you get on

For your group

Would you like me to come and do an event in your area? Give me a shout and we can work out the logistics. I can tailor an event for your community group, workplace, women's group, men's group, etc, etc, even for you and your friends.
