I'm dedicated to helping women in particular develop their spiritual path in life. I'm focused heavily on Brigid in Ireland, although not all my followers are! I teach, speak, coach and mentor people to help them along their own individual path, based on what lore we have, but also allowing for each individual path to develop as it needs to.
🫠Melting - and it's almost July!

I got out of the practice of writing last week. A week off work, followed by some major issues to deal with meant various things got dropped by the wayside. And a blog post and the emails were some of them. Fierce sorry about that, but it really was a case of prioritisation... I had a lovely weekend though. I sat on the couch on Saturday and didn't move. I think I did fewer than 700 steps all day. I needed it though. I came home on Friday night and I was tired. Like tired. Didn't make it to the gym all week. Was barely functioning on the food level. Showering was essential cos I was waking up multiple times a night covered in sweat (heat wave plus perimenopause is not for those of us adverse to heat!!) But I kept the basics going. I did actually eat. I drank water. I did not resort to drinking or any of the other dodgy crutches I've used in the past. I survived and kept going til the weekend and I took the time to rest. And I have a good 6 hour catch up with a friend that prompted this week's blog post (or next week, if you're not signed up for early access!) it's about what we owe society - particularly in crimes against the person cases - in terms of reporting and our own mental health and privacy. I'd love to know what ye think! And after all that, it's suddenly July tomorrow!! What the hell? BrÃd libh Órlagh P. S.

Hi, I'm Orlagh, of Brigid's Forge
I'm dedicated to helping women in particular develop their spiritual path in life. I'm focused heavily on Brigid in Ireland, although not all my followers are!

A lot of you seem to enjoy last week's "life" update, so I thought I'd give it a go again this week. It's my birthday weekend! I'm 45 on Sunday, which also happens to be Father's Day here in the Emerald Isle. I was also born on Father's Day, so I keep saying I was obviously the best present Dad ever got for the occasion. He occasionally agrees with me... Am I celebrating? Hell yeah! I didn't get to celebrate my 40th as I wished because of bloody Covid, so I'm celebrating this year. the family...
Why yes, it is my birthday this coming Sunday. (Hence the coupon ORLAGHBIRTHDAY45 giving you 45% off any and all courses before July 15th) And yes, it is Father's Day. Those good at the counting will realise I was also born on Father's Day, meaning I can never really beat the first pressie I ever gave Dad. (Something I remind him of when giving him yet another pair of socks. Seriously - he doesn't drink any more, he has everything he ever wanted from a golf point of view - what's a girl to...
I thought I'd give ye a life update. Cos, y'know, things happen. And sometimes, Brigid works in mysterious ways. So, my doctorate started a few weeks ago. I am now consumed with college assignments again, although to be honest, some of them are fairly short. Like <200 words short. So I can live with that. What I need to do, though, is build some structure into my life and put aside the time for studying. I'm using the next three months of assignment time to get that sorted out. I mean, yes,...
