⏱️ Q&A - 3 days left for early bird!

Published 3 months ago • 1 min read

I've had a few questions & queries about the Imbolc retreat, so here we go!

  1. Why six hours? Well, because I think that's how lonlong a day long retreat can feasibly last. Any longer, and we'll all be wiped out. Any shorter? Well, we'd be rushing.
  2. Is a blankie truly necessary? No, not 100% necessary. But I believe comfort is massively important whether meditating. So, if you have a tendency to cool down when meditating, keep something handy!
  3. What will the movement be? Will it be on camera? The movement will be your choice. I might suggest stretching, or dancing, or a good shake, but it's all up to you. The point of the movement is to make sure you're fully back in your body in between meditations. And no. While it would be nice to see faces on screen, there is no requirement at any stage to be on camera.
  4. When does the early bird price run out? 5pm Irish time, 6th January 2025
  5. Where can I sign up? Here.
  6. What's the final date for signing up? You can sign up right up til 5pm on 1st February. But the early bird price goes up on 6th January.
  7. Is there a payment plan? Yes, you can split payments in 2.

That covers most of the questions I've hhad so far, but reach out if you have any more.

And I'm slowly pulling out of this flu. I even washed my hair last night!! (I know, the excitement in my life is ripping!)

Hi, I'm Orlagh, of Brigid's Forge

I help people from strict, rigid religious backgrounds find joy in their spirituality again!

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.

This week's blog post was describing some things that coaching isn't. And I got a fair few responses to it. Mostly along the lines of "I don't think coaching is for me". 😊 You know yourself better than anyone else, and I trust you to know what's best for you. But I want you to consider a few things: 🤔 Who do you think coaching is for? I used to think it was just for executives and senior managers. But I completely overlooked the number of "ordinary" people who use coaches. Whether it's for...

On Saturday, I finished up the Brigid for Writers series I was doing with Courtney Weber. We had a great time and we are definitely going to be working together again. I really enjoyed it. (Fair warning though, even aside from my political views, it is really looking unsafe for any tourist in the US right now, so my decree that I will not set foot in the place voluntarily right now is only getting stronger!) But Courtney asked me a question at the end that stopped me a bit - she asked what...
