Most of my work is aimed at helping people have a better relationship with thoughts and emotions.  Working with people one to one but also working with groups & business.  Most people are caught up in focussing on what we need to do to feel better rather than prioritising how we want to feel.   It's not about me saying 'do this to feel' this because that's not realistic.  It's about pointing in a direction or asking questions so that whoever I'm working with can become aware of their own experience.  It's all about self awareness and exploration of that.  Recognising that part of us which is already at peace & all that springs from being in that space.

So here's a few resources to help with that exploration:

So first of all heres a guided meditation I've recorded which you may want to have a go at (it's one you can't get wrong, just follow me) there's also a chance for you to

ask any questions you have.

What do you love about living in Sligo?: I love the laid back nature of the place. I enjoy the outdoors so to have so many trails & walks and fields & beaches to run on is amazing. I love the community buzz of Strandhill. I also enjoy the peace and quiet.

If you could wave a magic wand what would you fix or bring to Sligo ie. facilities, shops, restaurants, culture/arts?: 
I would love for there to be a good quality small sized venue that could bring some alternative music to the area. When living in Dublin I was spoiled for choice with gigs where as here although theres an amazing wealth of talent it all seems to be folk and rock. Trickys used to be a great place for alternative gigs, since thats gone theres nothing really the hits the spot.

What are your must do Sligo recommendations? Restaurants/Walks etc.: 
Well I turned plant based 14months ago so favourite places to eat would be Stoked (defo my fav),Sweetbeat, Gallery Cafe & Miso. Im kinda lazy so only really go to the pubs within 100m of the house so thats The Dunes & The Venue (a special mention to the Swagman & Connollys if I get brave and venture out).
