Navan Parkinson's Group and Meath Partnership - you were an absolute pleasure 🙏 ☺️ Thank you for having me!![]()

I was delighted to have delivered a beautiful nurturing and self-care workshop to this wonderful group in the Balreask Arms @balreaskbar in Navan last week.![]()
![]()
We talked about how we can use mindfulness, our breath and self compassion to help throughout the daily pain and the mental, emotional and physical change and limitations that unfortunately accompanies Parkinson's Disease. ![]()

The group members including their spouse or carers really touched my heart. They are so resilience already! They get up and show up every day regardless of their diagnosis. That's incredible as it can be so difficult to be present and aware in a painful and perhaps chronic state. Acceptance can take a long time to come and the journey can be so intense.![]()

What an amazing opportunity to work with this group 🤗 Thank you so much to Roisin in Meath Partnership for organising this event and to the wonderful group for attending 😍![]()

As I prepared for this workshop and on the day, I kept asking myself "what would have helped me during one of the most difficult times in my own life, my secondary school journey and particularly my Leaving Cert year?"![]()

My answer = ![]()

👉 Coping tools and techniques![]()
👉 Breathwork![]()
👉 Meditation![]()
👉 Self-Compassion and Understanding![]()
👉 Self-Connection and knowing how to comfort and soothe my mind, emotions, body and soul![]()
👉 A reliable and non-judgemental ear and shoulder![]()
👉Someone to embrace me in their arms and tell me 'it is all going to be OK, everything will work out as it is meant to, this time will pass, I am here with you, I see you, I hear you, I feel you, you are not on your own".![]()

This is exactly what I spoke to these beautiful souls about! Embracing themselves as they are and coaching themselves positively through their Leaving Cert Year and into their future lives ❤️ ![]()
