Happy International Women’s Day 🌸
Story Massage reminds us of something simple & powerful….. connection matters ❤️
Across generations women have nurtured, comforted and supported others through kindness, care and gentle touch. These small moments of connection help all of us feel safe, seen and valued.
Today we celebrate all the women across the world in our international Story Massage Community who hold space, share stories and pass on this quiet wisdom every day 💕

Every woman carries a story.
We are shaped by the women who came before us. Their courage, care and quiet strength helped create the path we walk today.
Mothers, Grandmothers, Godmothers, Teachers, Sisters and Friends.
When we show kindness, support one another and encourage young girls & women to believe in themselves, we keep that light burning ❤️
Today we honour the women who lit the path for us and continue to pass that light forward.
Happy International Women’s Day 💖

Books give children more than stories.
They offer a quiet pause in our busy digital world. In my experience children of all ages are responding more than ever to a picture book being read to them 📚
When a child listens to or reads a story, their mind slows down. They explore feelings and imagine new possibilities.
Stories help children understand themselves and others. A simple book can support calm, connection and emotional wellbeing 🦋
Thank you to all the amazing authors and illustrators that have given us so much enjoyment through their books ❤️

Tonight’s full moon and total lunar eclipse is powerful.
A chance to pause.
A chance to check in with yourself.
Where have you been holding back?
Where have you been waiting for approval?
You don’t need permission.
You don’t need validation.
Your dreams matter.
Your timing is your own.
Other people’s limits are not your limits.
Let this be the moment you decide to trust yourself.
To take the step.
To back your own vision.
The energy is here.
Use this energy to take the next step in the direction of YOU 🦋

Anger is not the problem.
When you teach a child that it is okay to feel angry, you give them permission to be honest about their inner world.
When you show them how to pause, move their body and use words for what feels too big, you give them skills for life.
A child who learns how to process anger becomes a child who can respond and not react.
This week remember kindness to yourself is not indulgent, it is regulation.
When you soften your inner voice, your nervous system softens too.
You think more clearly.
You respond instead of react.
What would being gentle with yourself look like this week ?
You deserve the same care you give so freely to others ❤️

The rain might be falling and the air feels cold.
But you cannot control the weather.
You can only choose where you place your attention.
This week, go within.
When the outside feels heavy, ask yourself:
What strengths have carried me through hard days before?
Where have I shown quiet resilience?
What small step can I take today that supports my wellbeing?
Your inner resources matter more than the forecast.
Slow your breathing.
Soften your shoulders.
Notice what is steady inside you.
There is strength there.
Even on the coldest days.

It is always great to hear feedback from my well-being sessions from students but especially teenagers 😊
Some of the Junior Cert students in Heywood Community School gave these comments after my recent visit to their school.
Before exams students carry pressure in their bodies as much as their minds. You see it in tight shoulders, restless legs and busy thoughts.
Well-being in schools gives them simple breathing tools, movement to release tension & space to regulate their nervous systems.
When a teenager tells you yoga was more fun than they expected, you know something helped.

I have always found our emotions fascinating and how they can have such an impact on your physical health. Our emotions can help us to have positive or negative interactions with our friends and family. Over my many years as a primary teacher and in my role as a Sensory Integration teacher in the Early Focus Project in Dublin 8 I have realized and learnt how children need to and want to learn about their feelings. Children enjoy being active and curious but they also enjoy being quiet and calm in the right environment. I have used my experience as a Primary teacher, Mother of three, SNA and carer of Special needs child to put together a Well-being program that teaches children how to understand their physical and emotional health.
It is only with the right supports that we can all find our wings and become who we are meant to be. We will all go through trauma and tough times during our life but with the right support team around us our toughest times can sometimes become our greatest teacher and healer. If we can give our children the knowledge of how to understand and support their own emotional health I firmly believe that they will all find their wings and be truly happy.
What supports do I offer ?
Mindfulness & Well-being lessons for whole class and small groups in schools or Pre-schools. These lessons can include a selection of Mindfulness, Brain Gym, Primary movements, yoga, Emotional literacy, Story massage and relaxation.
1:1 private well-being sessions with children and parents.
Staff training for Croke park hours for Primary schools.
