The beauty of getting older is learning to say No.

Knowing you have a limit and respecting that.

Knowing that you can't do it all and be there for everyone.

Knowing it's better to focus on some things and to not try and take it all on.

Less is more. And this is a big part of learning to take care of yourself.

And taking care of yourself becomes more important than trying to do and be it all 💜

Mindfulness doesn't have to mean meditation mats or incense.

Mindfulness lives in everyday moments — we just have to notice them 💜

We had to say goodbye to one of our little guardian angels this week.

What an honour to be apart of your life Patsy.

Thank you for always being there for us all.

We will love you forever ❤️

On New Year's Eve I got to marry my best friend. I had the most incredible 2 days with our families 🥰 The wedding was full of love, music, tears and laughter. It was truly a blessing 🥰

Thinking of all the students who received results today.

At 18, I think it's more common than not that you do Not know what you really want to do as a job for the rest of your life.

How can you truly know at 18 when your adult life is only beginning?

As someone who didn't get my first option I can look back now and say Thank God I didn't get it as I think I wouldn't have lasted long as a journalist being the nervous type of person that I am 😅

Instead, I did loads of jobs and courses, each slowly shaping me and giving me the knowledge and experience I really appreciate having now when stepping into the classroom as a teacher.

If you had told me at 17 I was going to be a teacher eventually, I would have laughed with the shock of it 😅. I remember having to ask my friends each day of the leaving cert what exam we had each day 😅

And here is the thing, there are multiple intelligences; music smart, self-smart, people-smart, and so on. Everyone has their intelligence in some area, and it's about finding that and nurturing it.

It's not all about going to college. Sometimes, it's about doing apprenticeships or going to work and working your way up the ladder.

If you have a dream then work hard for it and go down whatever avenue you need to. If you haven't a clue then just go with the flow and just do your best.

Such a lovely few days in Centre Parcs. The weather was absolutely beautiful and nothing like being out in the fresh air cycling through the forest with the sun shining 🥰

Delighted to fit a camp in before going back to school 🙂

This camp starts next Tuesday and suits primary school children but also any child starting
school in September.

The focus of these camps will be preparation on returning to or starting school so we will be learning all about mindfulness and how to deal with big emotions such as worry and sadness, building confidence and self-esteem and how we can approach life's challenges with gratitude and a more positive attitude 💜

The camp includes yoga and arts and crafts, drama and music and plenty of mindfulness practices and life long skills that children can learn and use throughout their lives.
