Hope everyone is well? Anyone who saw my post on Threads or Instagram yesterday will know I'm suffering a bit. However, I have just acquired the Holy Trinity of Ibuprofen, Paracetemol and VIcks' Menthol Inhaler to help clear my blocked sinuses. Fingers crossed they all start working soon! A few months back, I said whatever the election results, I would host a retreat for Imbolc this year. Now with the Presidential results in for the US, it's clear I won't be voluntarily travelling to the US for the next four years. So I have two ideas: 1) Host a retreat in Ireland for those willing and able to travel 2) Host an online retreat Now, I have a very tentative third idea about hosting a retreat in Canada, but not sure if people would be interested at all. So, here's my question. Since it's coming to the time of year where I will have some quiet time to research and plan in work, I've put together a very short form for you to give me feedback on this: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSevDQnWfY2JMAvDUwsBjXI4u6OpiO2zTxsnNLDWjl5Jhvo8Vg/viewform?usp=sharing There is an area to put in your email address, but it's not a requirement, only if you want to hear more about it. Now, a retreat in Canada is unlikely to happen in February, it may happen later in the year, but the Ireland or virtual options could happen in February, so let me know and I'll see what I can arrange. In the mean time, there's still time to start the Building a Daily Practice with Brigid course and finish before Imbolc!! OK, I'm off to get more meds into me.... Bríd libh Órlagh P. S.

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.
Last month, after From Restriction to Freedom, this arrived in my inbox: "This workshop has played an important part of this phase of my life and I so appreciate it. From the bottom of my heart, go raibh maith agat ❤" I've been sitting with that message ever since. It's why I'm running this workshop again — because if it can mean that much to one person, it can mean that much to more. If you've been on the fence, I hope this helps you decide. Tuesday 7pm Irish / 2pm EST / 11am PST. Two hours....
Last month I ran From Restriction to Freedom for the first time. The response genuinely moved me. People said it helped them find their spiritual north. That it felt like a safe space to explore without anyone telling them the right way to do it. One person wrote to me afterwards - go raibh maith agat - and said it had played an important part in this phase of their life. I'm running it again this Tuesday. And if you missed it the first time, I'd love for you to be there. From Restriction to...
Ye may have noticed that it's Tuesday when I'm sending this and not Monday. Ye may also have noticed a distinct lack of an email last week. I'm sorry. Basically, my stress levels are extremely high right now. It's affecting food, sleep, cognitive ability, patience, everything. Which is why I'm in work before 7am on less than 3 hours sleep. I recognise this feeling. I'm getting closer and closer to burnout by the day. But - in a fine example of learning by the 4th or 5th time something happens...
