Cuireann sí ranganna suaimhnis ar fáil do dhaoine fásta agus daoine óga i mBéarla agus Gaeilge. Cuireann sí na ranganna in oiriúint don ghrúpa atá ann ó thaobh áit, fad agus ábhar. Leanann na ranganna seo seacht gcéim. Bíonn cluichí ann agus déantar massage ar a chéile agus orthu féin. Labhraíonn siad faoi rudaí dearfacha - rudaí maithe a tharla an lá sin, focail dhearfacha agus mar sin. Déantar roinnt stretches agus bíonn cúpla cluiche ann atá dírithe ar an analú - cá bhfuil sé le mothú agus mar sin. Ansin bíonn am suaimhnais ann ag deireadh an ranga ina luann na daoine óga síos agus éisteann siad le visualisation. Sna ranganna do dhaoine fásta, bíonn trí chineál machnamhach ann - an visualisation, machnamhach siúlóide agus machnamhach suigh.

Solas Relaxation is a bilingual meditation and relaxation company founded by the journalist and writer, Katie McGreal. She provides relaxation classes for all ages in English and Irish. All classes are tailored to meet the needs of the students. These classes follow seven steps; game playing, peer and self massage, movement, positive words and thinking, stretches and focusing on the breath. There is then a relaxation section where a visualisation is read out while the students sit or lie down to listen to it and fully relax. During adult classes, there are three types of meditation; a visualisation, a walking meditation and a sitting meditation.

I was so grateful to be able to hold space for Sam as she processed her big, snake emotions.

Embodiment Coaching isn´t about me telling you what you should do, it is about allowing you the space that you need in order to hear what your body is trying to tell you.

We hold so much wisdom in our own bodies and have been conditioned to not listen to it. When we are feeling sad, that sadness is there for a reason but so often we just push it away and we refuse to believe or hear what that sadness wants to tell us.

When we do this with one emotion, we do it with all emotions. When I am feeling happy, I won´t sit with it if I can´t sit with my sadness.

Embodiment coaching is about helping you notice how you are feeling, where you can feel it in your body and teaching you to listen to it so your body can share itś wisdom with you.

It is always so easy for us to think of all of the bad things in our lives.

If I ask you to name three things that are hard or bad in your life right now, I have no doubt you would have more then three things very quickly.

But if I asked you to tell me three things you are grateful for, that would take a lot more time.

Gratitude is a habit, it is a muscle that we need to train because our brains have developed to always find and see and think of the negative things. It is our brain's way of keeping us safe, but society has changed at a faster rate then our brains which means that we don't need to always be on the lookout for the bad things so they don't kill us. We are safe to see the good in our lives too but we need to remember to do that.

This is why I include a weekly Gratitude post in The Peaceful Place Membership. Every week, you get a reminder to think of the good things in your life, so that you can create the new habit of remembering all of the good that you have in your life, because you have so much good, you just don't take the time to see it!

Comment below or DM me and I will tell you how you can join the Peaceful Place Membership for just €23 per month, instead of the usual €27 a month. There is no commitment either, so if you decide that after one month it isn't for you, you are free to leave, no questions asked!

Happy birthday to me!

Birthdays are a funny time for people and I am on a mission to allow myself to enjoy celebrating my birthday, as celebrating me wasn't ever something that was a big deal in the family I grew up in.

My birthday was always at such a bad time, according to my mum, between my Granny's birthday, mine, my sister's and my grandaunt's birthday and St Patrick's Day. My mum always made sure I knew it was a really inconvenient time, as if I had chosen it.

So now, I make sure to allow myself the celebration of me! And I will continue that tradition this year!

This weekend I am going to be learning about the teachings of Patanjali, so next weekend will be when I'll have a party, so we're making it an almost month long event, as I am away for a week at the end of March, to continue the celebrations!

How do you find birthdays? Do you celebrate your birthday?

It was such a pleasure and privilege to get to chat with my dear sister Sara Sweeney.

We had such a powerful and interesting conversation from talking about change and allowing the flow of life and how that is for us right now, as well as talking about surrender and the challenges of that.

We also talked about our worth and friendships and friendship break ups, such a beautiful conversation!

We are still in the energies of the full moon, the eclipse and the 33 portal and if you would like to harness those energies, Dm me or comment below and I will send you a recording which you get lifetime access to with a powerful journalling and meditation practice and there is also a beautiful reflective meditation in there so you can really feel into whatever it is that you are ready to release with this powerful energy.

The ceremony can be done in your own time, at your own pace and it is full of guidance so you can get the most out of these energies.

It is perfect for anyone looking for a reset, a breath before we move onto the next thing. Afterwards you will feel calmer, you will feel more like yourself, more connected to yourself and happier.

Are you joining the Full Moon Releasing Ceremony tonight for this powerful full moon and eclipse??

Eclipse season is usually when things that are no longer working in our lives shift our or leave, this can make eclipse season particularly hard, and with the energy of a full moon, sleep could also be disrupted or you might be feeling a little more fragile so I wanted to host another Full Moon Releasing Ceremony to offer you a space to land and to breathe, a space that you can come back to yourself and reconnect with yourself and remember that it is and will all be OK.

During my ceremonies we use journalling and meditation to reconnect with yourselves and to notice what is and has been coming up for us so that we can fully release it and welcome in whatever it is that we are wanting more of.

This is a 90 minute long ceremony at 8pm Irish time and 9pm Spanish time. It is the perfect way to experience meditation without needing to sign up to something for a few weeks or anything too longterm and I will also be sending out a recording of a ceremony that you can do in your own time, if that is what would better suit you.

The recording won't be of the live ceremony as I want that to be a safe place to share but it will include guided journalling and mediation practices as well as a releasing practice.

Comment below or DM me and I will send you the link to join us!

I've just suddenly decided to host an online Full Moon Releasing Ceremony tomorrow night (Tuesday, 3rd March) for the full moon eclipse at 8pm GMT

90 minutes, meditation, journalling and noticing what is shifting with the full moon and eclipse energy.

Eclipses are a time where things move out of out lives thst are no longer serving us. They can be intense and challenging times but it's always for the most beautiful reasons.

Dm me or comment below if you want to join us for €27 and I will send a recording out as well so if you can't make the live ceremony you can still do your own ceremony (the actual ceremony won't be recorded as I want it to be a safe space to share for anyone who wants to but you will get a beautiful recording)

Embodiment Coaching has changed the lives of so many of my clients.

The sessions are gentle and always start with, how are you? And I am really interested in how you are doing. I want to hear about what is going on in your life, so we can fully sit into where we need to go during the session.

So often, clients show up with no idea where we will go during the session, but it is never a wasted session. Your body guides us and it is a no pressure, gentle experience where you are held in whatever comes up and we just allow it to be there.

Sometimes we ask what it needs us to know, sometimes we just sit with it.

DM me or comment below if you want to learn more and I would love to offer you a session for just €45 to see how we get on, usually sessions are €77 but I am really passionate about you seeing how beneficial these practices and experiences can be so if you would like to know more, just send me a message and we will see if this session will support you.

During an Embodiment Coaching session, we start with some deep breaths. We close our eyes, breathe and allow our attention to come into the present moment. When we feel a little calmer and our mind feels quieter, I start to ask you what you are feeling in your body. I ask you if you have any sensations or if there are any emotions you are feeling.

There is no right or wrong answer and we just see what comes up, and something always comes up.

Our emotions are present because they want to tell us something, so allowing them to tell us what it is that you need to know and sitting and waiting for the answer is so powerful.

If you are curious, or would like to learn more, I am currently offering my sessions which are usually €77 per session for just €45 per session but it won't stay at that price for long so if you are interested comment below or DM me and we can chat and see if this is a good fit for you

The latest episode of The Inner Nudge Podcast is now out to listen to!

I talk to my beautiful sister Sara Sweeney and we talk all things change and flowing with life and surrender.

During this call, I was going through a friendship breakup it turned out but at the time of the call I hadn't been sure how the friendship would work out and talking it through with Sara was such a blessing as it gave me a different perspective on it.

Sara and I have met once in person and during the 24 hours or so that we were together, I had my perspective changed and warped so often and it was such a blessing to be able to continue some of our conversations from Madrid online and to allow you all to listen into the beauty and the gem that is this beautiful water woman.

Search The Inner Nudge Podcast on Spotify, Amazon or Apple podcasts to listen to this episode and I can't wait to hear what you think!

When was the last time you connected in with yourself?

When was the last time you noticed how you felt?

Do you know how you feel now?

It doesn't need to take long, it could be a breath, it could be a minute, it could be 30 seconds, but connecting in with yourself on a regular basis is a really powerful practice to start as it will help you to notice how you are feeling, it will help you to notice what is going on for you and you will start to be able to understand whether you like things that are happening or not.

It is such a powerful experience and whether you would like to try doing it with meditation or an Embodiment Coaching session, I would love to support you in finding what is the best fit for you.

DM me and we'll see how I can support you

When I was 16 I was introduced to the group .oficial . I was learning Spanish in school and it seemed like a good way to listen to and learn more Spanish.

I loved them! A CD was bought when we were in Barcelona and I proceeded to continue loving them. The CD made it's way into my car when I bought it at 22 and it was still there until I emigrated to Spain.

On Saturday night, I went to the Amaral concert here in A Coruna and it was brilliant! Absolutely fantastic and I knew 90% of the words to all but one song. It was class! Highly recommend! And my inner 16 year old may have had a little cry.

I'm not generally a concert goer but when I saw Amaral were playing I decided I had to go, and it did not disappoint!

There are so many things about my life that 16 year old me would not believe, and in the best way possible! There was a part of me at that age that would have loved to have the confidence to live in Spain to improve my Spanish but I never thought I would actually do it. I didn't realise how many lovely people I had yet to meet and how many of them would become so supportive and loving in a way that I never experienced growing up. Cutting out my family was definitely not on my radar, but if it had been, I could never in a million years have imagined that I would be happier and living a life so much closer to what I want and not what they expected of me without them in my life.

I am living a life I wanted but I didn't know was even an option for me, and a huge part of why I know I can do that, is because of all of the internal work I have done, all of the sitting with feelings, emotions and anxieties and allowing them to be there.

Every emotion we have is telling us something, it is wanting us to know something about ourselves, our life, our surroundings, the relationship we are in. Our bodies hold so much wisdom and if you would like to learn more about your body and that wisdom so you can life a life that your 16 year old self would be proud of, DM me! I would love to chat and see how I can help!
