Episode 4: What It’s Really Like to Give Up Alcohol
Ireland might be pound for pound the hardest place in the world to give up drinking. I wanted to do an episode based around my experiences over the last 2 years and 10 months. The good, the bad, and the mad things that I wasn’t expecting. If you get a chance and you are enjoying the podcast please give it a rating

Meditation: For People Who Feel Sad About the Way the World Is
This is a specific meditation for people who feel sad about the current state of the world. I have noticed that at the moment, the global mental health is seemingly at an all time low. I cannot remember a time, even during global planetary events, where people seemed to be struggling as much as they are now. I wanted to make a specific meditation to pay respect and to acknowledge that, but also to let people know that they are not alone.

Episode 3: War on Spirit
When we are lied to about innocent human lives being taken. What is the spiritual cost of this? What is really happening? And what is the cost of global gaslighting on our souls? In this episode I explore some narratives involving world events, and how they have been manipulated to bring us away from the truth. I also speak about why it’s important to protect ourselves, and our mental and spiritual health, inside of all of this chaos.

Episode 2: For Parents of Children with Additional Needs (And Everyone Else)
I set out to make an episode especially for parents of children with additional needs. My intention was to share my own journey with it. Firstly, because it’s just not something that gets spoken about it a lot. And secondly, because I think it’s rare that we get to look at these things also from a spiritual perspective.What ended up happening was that I think I ended up speaking mostly to myself. Which ended up being incredibly healing and I cried a lot (good tears) while listening back to it. Being a parent of an additional needs child is an incredibly humbling journey. The ups will take you to the highs of the highest peeks of elation, and the downs will take you to the bottom of the deepest caverns of your soul. It’s the most worthwhile thing I’ve ever been a part of, and it woke me in a way that nothing else ever could. This is not exclusively for these parents. I think everyone could get something from it, because everyone has either a family member, or a friend, or a son or daughter with autism, or some other life changing difference. Neurodivergent people themselves will hopefully get something from it as well. I am so grateful that I found this new avenue to share my feelings, thoughts and opinions with the world. I do not take it for granted as I spend a lot of time on my own, and to be able to communicate with people is something that genuinely makes me happy. Peace and love Nelly

Meditation: Peace by the River
A meditation where we focus on breath, becoming present in the body, and some other meditation techniques.
This is a very informal intro to meditation podcast. I promise to keep it extremely honest, while not taking things too seriously. These are guided meditations and loose chats about life, spirituality, the absolute state of the world, and how we might find even a tiny bit of peace, in between the chaos and insanity of this moment in time.
Some of the episodes will be more direct meditation focussed, and some of them will be more me chatting. What I promise not to do, is to say “Imagine yourself in a lovely green field”, in a posh British accent.
