Living Seasonally: Starting August 24th

 After a couple of weeks away, I am back to Dublin. The pause offered promise and renewal, and served a whopping reminder of how beautiful Ireland is. I hogged the South and West coast- weaving in and out of beaches and headlands, popping over to islands and meeting amazing people along the way (was lining up some interviews for Creative Islanders too, so watch this space).Back in the city, I can feel an autumnal swing in the air as busyness starts to creep in and that 'back to school' feeling lingers for longer. I know that I for one want to move into the months ahead more mindfully, with clarity of vision and action- tapping into what the season offers while being in tune with my own energy. It is for these reasons that the idea of creating seasonal planners came to me. A planner with a difference- one which poses seasonal questions and works with the understanding that energy has ebb and flow, just like the natural rhythm of the year. It also understands the power of creating pause space as we transition between seasons, taking some time to reflect and realign our goals and actions with our intentions and energies.As I was designing the planners, it was my graphic designer, Orlagh O'Brien, who suggested that I also turn it into an online course, noting that it would be great to work on the planners alone but would be wonderful also to have the opportunity to do it was a group of others. She made a good point. The group aspect can help to keep you focused and is an opportunity to learn with and share with others. And so Living Seasonally- the online version, came about. I start my first course on Monday 24th August.Below a little video which I put together to explain the concept of Living Seasonally (thanks to James Kelly for his filming). (It is so rare for me to be on this side of the camera!)I would love for you to join in- 5 days to dive into your dreams, aspirations, intentions and set some goals and action plans for the months ahead.Head on over to the Living Seasonally page to learn more and to register.Clare.
