Blessings & Happy Spring Day!!

So did you all take time to celebrate life and love under the May Full Moon, aka "The Flower Moon"? the moon of fertility, growth & wisdom? I did howl a little but I passed on the dancing naked part, a little too chilly for my liking.

I would like to share two practices that I did participate in this Spring, one which is new to me and the other I have learned to do at this time of the year, especially since returning home to Ireland a few years ago.

Around the end of March, beginning of April each year, my sinuses start to act up and I get all these strange noises in my ears. If I am exposed in any way to windy conditions it can become quite unbearable. Time to take out the "Neti Pot". I use the neti pot throughout the year but in early spring I make it a daily routine. Using seasalt and warm water I wash out my sinuses and it relieves the symptoms - No chemicals, no sprays, no medication!

My second practice I started some weeks ago with a group of friends... The Five Tibetan Rites. The intention of the group is to do the practice for 40 days. If you are interested in joining us (from your own home), I have set up a group under my name in Facebook and would love to hear from you.

So here are some of our Upcoming Events I would like to share with you....
