Seachtain fhiúntach! / A Productive Week!

Seo an chéad seachtain le píosa go raibh aon suim agam nó fuinneamh agam smaoineamh chun tosaigh. Sular tharla gach rud a tharla le cúpla mí anuas ní raibh mé go maith ag pleanáil cúrsaí agus dátaí. Ach leis an mbliain nua ag teannadh linn bhí a fhios agam go raibh rudaí go raibh mé ag iarraidh a dhéanamh agus pleananna a raibh mé ag iarraidh leagadh síos agus anois TÁ SÉ DÉANTA AGAM! Tá mé thar a bheith bródúil asam féin!

This is the first week in a while that I have had any interest or energy to think about anything that is not directly in front of me. Even before everything went down over these past few weeks I was not great at forward planning but I did and have known for a while that there are a few things I wanted to pin down for the new year and NOW I HAVE DONE IT! And I am so proud of myself!

Chuir mé ríomhphost mí na Samhna amach inné (má suim leat a bheith ar an liosta sin cuir ríomhphost go solasrelaxation@gmail.com) agus leis sin a dhéanamh bhí orm na dátaí a shocrú.

I sent out my November update email yesterday (if you want to be added to the list for these monthly emails send an email to solasrelaxation@gmail.com) and in order to send it out I had to think about and organise dates.

Beidh dúshlán 5 lá ar siúl agam i mí Eanáir i mo ghrúpa Facebook 5 Lá de Chineáltas ón 11ú go dtí 15ú lá. Beimid cineálta linn féin agus leis na daoine thart orainn le linn an dúshlán seo le moltaí agus rudaí beaga le déanamh. Úsáidfimid an anáil agus aireachas le cineáltas a léiriú dúinn féin agus feicfimid le linn na seachtaine go dtiocfaidh an cineáltas amach agus go dtabharfaidh daoine eile in ár saolta go bhfuil muid níos cineálta leo. Más suim leat a bheith páirteach linn, glac ballraíocht sa ghrúpa anseo.   

I will be running a 5 day challenge in my Facebook group 5 Days of Kindness Challenge from 11th to 15th January. During this week we are going to use our breath and a sense of awareness to remember to be kind to ourselves. There will be daily reminders and little things to do to show ourselves and those around us kindness. If you’d like to join us, you can join the Facebook group here.

An tseachtain dár gcionn, ar an Déardaoin, 21 Eanáir tosóidh cúrsa 6 seachtain le leanúint ar aghaidh ag cothú an chineáltais sin; Ag Cothú Cineáltais Inmheánach. Tá an cúrsa seo dírithe ar héinne atá ag iarraidh an chaidrimh atá acu leo féin a fheabhsú agus mar sin na caidrimh atá ina saolta a fheabhsú mar thoradh ar sin. Úsáidfimid aireachas agus beidh an intinn níos ciúine le gur féidir linn an guth olc sin atá ionann ar fad a ísliú agus beidh muid in ann glacadh linn féin ar bhealach níos fearr agus níos éifeachtaí. Cabhróidh an cúrsa seo le codail, strus agus buaireamh agus tá an t-eolas ar fad ar fáil anseo.  

The following week on Thursday, 21 January, I will start Cultivating Inner Kindness, a six-week adult course for anyone who is looking to improve their relationship with themselves and with others. During our time together we will use mindfulness and relaxation techniques to ease our busy minds and create space for kindness and acceptance of ourselves and of those around us. This course will improve your home environment, help you to have a slower way of life and in turn reduce stress and anxiety. You sleep will also be improved. All of the information is available here.  

Huzzah! Agus maith mise as ucht rud éigin fiúntach a dhéanamh! Beidh Katie sa todhchaí an-bhuíoch as an obair seo ar fad!

Huzzah to me! I’ll definately be giving myself a pat on the back! Future Katie will be very grateful for all of the work I’ve done!
