The vibration of your life is always being felt, both near and far.

You may never fully see where it reaches, whose heart it touches, or how it changes the world.

When you move through life with awareness and compassion, your song becomes medicine. When you choose presence over reactivity, your song becomes healing. When you live from love instead of fear, your song becomes a lighthouse illuminating the way.

You don’t have to be louder, and you don’t have to be perfect. You just need to be you, letting your light shine out into the world in it’s own unique way.

This is the power of your ripple.

Thank you to on IG for this beautiful reminder!

PSI President Dr Sarah Cassidy speaking at the Oireachtas Joint Committee on Children and Equality, discussing the safety and wellbeing of children online.

"The primary responsibility for protecting children from harm by digital devices must lie the creators of those technologies. Tech companies must ensure their products minimise compulsive or passive use and support healthy social connection. Effective safeguards should promote positive engagement and protect children’s mental health, rather than relying solely on parental oversight or blanket restrictions."

“You become. It takes a long time. That’s why it doesn’t happen often to people who break easily, or have sharp edges, or who have to be carefully kept. Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But these things don’t matter at all, because once you are Real you can’t be ugly, except to people who don’t understand.”
