Emerald House - Retreats in Kerry

Emerald House - Retreats in Kerry Emerald House is closed for business.I will update my next venture when it appears. Spirituality is nothing more than being in touch with our center.

In these difficult times that we are living in, more and more people are looking, whether consciously or unconsciously, for reconnection to their own deep center. It is from my own inner journey that I now find myself wanting to share my knowledge and, if you so wish, direct you on your own inner journey, to help you to reconnect to the person you were born to be. It is this disconnection from our

deep center that makes us angry, confused and ill and stops us from being whole and healthy people. Wholeness is when all centers – mental, emotional and physical - are in harmony and our higher self is running our ship. The first step is to learn to quieten the mind and the constant chatter that invades our every waking moment by shutting down the left brain (the logic) and letting the right side take over.( the creative and receptive.) I have found no greater way to do this than to practice creative visualization. It is the exploration of the five basic deep life questions:

Who am I, What am I, How am I, Where am I, When am I. The next step is to let go of fixed ideas, ingrained habits, old moralities, worn-out relationships and especially imposed ideas. It means letting go of the many distortions hiding your true reality. Once you have named and shamed the behavior that no longer serves you, then your true life direction can become clearer. The state of our mind and the attitude of our spirit affect the entire universe. In Chinese philosophy it is said that the slightest wave of the hand moves molecules all the way to the end of the universe. It is also true that the slightest change in our inner attitude affects those to whom we are connected, however far away they may be. Thoughts are actions, action have causes, and causes have effects. This is not an easy journey, nor can it be taken lightly; it needs courage, hard work and, like any endeavour, an ability to laugh at yourself and also to forgive yourself. Once you step onto the road and begin to trust and believe in an energy that works outside of the self and you start to shed the skin that no longer serves you, eventually a new person appears or the person you were born to be, one whose personality is in tune with your soul. The universal life force energy acts as a bridge - a connection between the realm of pure spirit and the manifested world. If you choose to go on this journey of the Self, as a Reiki Master I can attune you back to ‘Universal Life Force Energy’ For me Reiki has literally been the Key and in my case the Golden Key as the Reiki lineage that I am part of is called ‘The Golden Reiki Way.’ The wonderful thing about being attuned is that you are instantly introduced to universal life force energy and it is this that sustains you on your journey. It reactivates and rewires your entire system, giving all your senses a massive energy boost. So come walk with me on this magical pathway of discovery - it is up to you how far you wish to travel....

A vision is more than just a state of mind. It is a reality; a potential reality that exists right here in this very moment, parallel to your current manifest experience.

When one is the embodiment of a vision, one becomes a representative for that vision. One understands that it isn’t just a state that one can tap into at will, but that it is a reality that in this moment exists and therefore instead of enjoying the state of that vision, one lives, breathes, thinks, feels and acts in accordance to that vision.

When you embody a vision, you ARE that vision and therefore all of your creations are in accordance to that vision, you are an ambassador of that vision and your whole life’s purpose is aligned to it.

A fulfilling vision is the work we all strive to embody: our life’s purpose. A vision bigger than our petty, personal mind who only thinks about itself, its comforts and what it can gain from the world. That way of living my friends is becoming the most toxic and destructive factor not only towards our own lives, but towards the planet.

A new era is here, a new way of being and operating that is powerfully of service to one’s true intention for being, to a life of true prosperity, nourishment, and healing for the whole planet. If you are reading this, make no mistake that you are a puzzle piece for the full crystallization of such a vision.

Our team has been working on a big new project behind the scenes for this past year. This project is emerging rapidly and is currently undergoing its beta test phase with a group of about 700 people, and will very soon be made available to you all.

We have been creating an environment that sets any sincere seeker up for success. We believe that this project will ensure that you will no longer lay down on the job; that you will no longer slack and take two steps back in your spiritual elevation.

This environment will ensure that you are on an ever-upward spiral of co-creative ascension from the day you joyfully step into it. It will be an exciting new era for learning, evolving and being together as a community.

When love awakens in your life, in the night of your heart, it is like the dawn breaking within you. Where before there was anonymity, now there is intimacy; where before there was fear, now there is courage; where before in your life there was awkwardness, now there is a rhythm of grace and gracefulness; where before you used to be jagged, now you are elegant and in rhythm with yourself. When love awakens in your life, it is like a rebirth, a new beginning.

Love allows understanding to dawn, and understanding is precious. Where you are understood, you are at home...free to release yourself into the trust and shelter of the other person's soul.

The dead are not distant or absent. They are alongside us. When we lose someone to death, we lose their physical image and presence, they slip out of visible form into invisible presence. This alteration of form is the reason we cannot see the dead. But because we cannot see them does not mean that they are not there. Transfigured into eternal form, the dead cannot reverse the journey and even for one second re-enter their old form to linger with us a while. Though they cannot reappear, they continue to be near us and part of the healing of grief is the refinement of our hearts whereby we come to sense their loving nearness. When we ourselves enter the eternal world and come to see our lives on earth in full view, we may be surprised at the immense assistance and support with which our departed loved ones have accompanied every moment of our lives. In their new, transfigured presence their compassion, understanding and love take on a divine depth, enabling them to become secret angels guiding and sheltering the unfolding of our destiny.

Your mind will grow whatever you feed it.
If you are used to feeding it what's wrong in life, you won't wake up feeling any better.

Try before sleep to go within and feed it something nourishing and let yourself rest in that as you drift into dreaming.

This will gently feed into your subconscious.

Blessings ✨

The more humble you become, the happier you are.
 
What is humility? It is the willingness to be malleable about how you see things. This is one of the hardest things for human beings to do—to be non-insistent in the ways we think and believe.
 
When something doesn’t feel good, change the way you see it until you arrive at a vibrational perspective that is endowed with the true qualities of your Being, so that you feel amazing.
 
There is no mechanical barrier to this; feeling good and attracting the life of your dreams depends solely upon the willingness to change how you see things.

Solitude is one of the most precious things in the human spirit. It is different from loneliness. When you are lonely, you become acutely conscious of your own separation. Solitude can be a homecoming to your own deepest belonging. One of the lovely things about us as individuals is the incommensurable in us. In each person, there is a point of absolute nonconnection with everything else and with everyone. This is fascinating and frightening. It means that we cannot continue to seek outside ourselves for things we need from within. The blessings for which we hunger are not to be found in other places or people. These gifts can only be given to you by yourself. They are at home at the hearth of your soul.

THE ART OF DEVELOPING A BEAUTIFUL MIND

The world is not simply there. Everything and everyone we see, we view through the lenses of our thoughts. Your mind is where your thoughts arise and form. It is not simply with your eyes but with your mind that you see the world. So much depends on your mind: How you see yourself, who you think you are, how you see others, what you think the meaning of life is, how you see death, belief, God, darkness. Beauty is all determined by the style of mind you have.

Your mind is your greatest treasure. We become so taken up with the world, with having and doing more and more, we come to ignore who we are and forget what we see the world with. The most powerful way to change your life is to change your mind.

When you beautify your mind, you beautify your world. You learn to see differently. In what seemed like dead situations, secret possibilities and invitations begin to open before you. In old suffering that held you long paralyzed, you find new keys. When your mind awakens, your life comes alive and the creative adventure of your soul takes off. Passion and compassion become your new companions.
