Friends of Gort na nDarach, Tree Song continues this Sunday in our enchanted woodland (and maybe roundhouse if the rain decides to make an appearance!) We will have a whole day of sitting with and singing out the wisdom of Elder in one of the most magical pockets of woodland I've ever met!

An opportunity to step out of time and meet the bubbling gnosis that can only be felt through space amongst the trees. For those who yearn inhabit a place of deep listening!

You are most welcome to be with us on this continuing journey of resensitisation and excavation of voice. I would love to sing, move, feel (and maybe even nap 😉) with you nestled in the woods!

Medicinal tea and light lunch included. Please reach out if funds are a barrier.

Is Elder calling you? Message Oonagh if so 🌱✨️

We have a last few places left for our Village Hearth Gathering at Gort na nDarach in Galway, Sept 5th-7th (or 4th-8th). This will be an inter-generational community experience of deep nature connection and nature-centered culture. We also have 1 place left on our 'acorn leadership' training pathway for how to create these experiences within your home-based communities.

- experience deep restoration
- find belonging in shared values and intimate experiences
- feel the vitality of nature moving through your body, and open to what it's sharing with you
- experience a powerful elegant model of culture regeneration

If you would like to find out more about the 8 Shields model we will be sharing, and embodying together, you can listen to me being interviewed by the founder Jon Young, and his partner Sarah Fontaine and son Aidan, where we share personal stories of the experience of 'Ecological Homecoming':

Or you can watch the powerful film L'Aure Connexion. This film presents this model of education in nature based on indigenous cultures, at The Wolf School in British Columbia, It interviews the children, their parents, educators and young adults who have grown up through this program, which meets the need for a deep connection, essential to our balance. It reminds us that everything is connected, that true joy lies in realizing one's potential, in service to one's community and nature:

Hello all,

After 3 years I'm excited to be offering another 8 Shields gathering, sharing a nature-centred village experience with everyone.

This will be a powerful weekend where we will be collectively exploring what emerges when we centre nature connection in our human culture.

Village Hearth will be a nature centred, family-friendly, gathering exploring regenerative culture, Sept 5th-7th, at my home place in Galway.

Join us for late summer abundance, beautiful & deep nature connection practices, a supportive and deepening 8 Shields village experience, and songs & stories around the fire.

Yesterday, I spent most of the day in the woods here, finding whole new parts I still haven't ventured through before.

At first in the morning, coming across the newly opening luminescent bluebells....the smell was so fragrant in the cold morning air. And the bumblebees were enjoying them too, making the flowers bounce with their furry bodies.

Just before we left the woods in the morning we were truely gifted, finding the rare Model mushrooms. We harvested just a couple, and sauteed them with shallots, garlic, white wine and red Russian kale, on rye bread toast, yum! It was my first time trying them and they were sooo delicious!.

In the afternoon and evening I was wandering around thick woodland, literally getting dizzy, tracking old walls now immersed, doing my best to locate the best areas for future Hazel coppice coupes.

I feel so blessed to have this woodland under my care and stewardship 💚

I have been teaching and guiding nature connection work for over ten years and am giving away a place on my yearlong online (and in person in your local ecology) until January 31st!
I co-guide this course with Peter Cow .life

The phrase ‘Ecological Homecoming’ came to me when I was looking to describe the journey of returning home to nature, when we find a felt sense of belonging to this incredible biosphere we call home….this emerges out of repeated deep nature connection experiences where we have a sense of two way communication with other-than-human-beings. When I had this experience it healed me of a deep loneliness I had, which I hadn’t identified but had felt throughout my life until then.

To enter into this seasonal giveaway we ask you to do just one action:
Somewhere on either instagram or facebook create a post sharing the story of an experience or moment where you felt a sense of Ecological Homecoming, and share a link to our course saying that you are hoping to join. Tag us so we can read and receive your story, and tag three friends you'd like to share your story with who you feel would appreciate it and receive it with care 💚
https://bringingithome.life/ecological-homecoming/

If there is someone you know who you feel would like this opportunity and is not on either of these social platforms we are very open to other creative ways they can share with their community : )

On instagram we are bringingithome.life and on facebook we are Bringing It Home.

Then we will be asking the great mystery (via a hat with names!) to pick someone for us….
