  1. Mindfulness in Autumn

    Mindfulness in Autumn

    October 10th 2024, World Mental Health Day

    Wherever you might be as you read this, take a moment… unwind… reflect… breathe. Pour yourself a cuppa. Autumn is here. Instead of resisting, complaining and looking towards the summer months, let’s try to embrace the change in weather, in light and in season. Replace the takeaway cups of iced coffee with steaming mugs of tea. Ditch the light salads for warming, hearty stews and seasonal veg. Say hello to woolly layers and pink noses. Rich tones of earthy browns, deep orange and forest greens decorate the landscape. Fragrant notes of cinnamon, spiced apple, and pumpkin fill the air, as logs crackle on the fire and rain taps upon the windows. Welcome the darker evenings and the nip in the air telling us to slow down a little.

  5. The Ancient History of The Tailteann Games

    The Ancient History of The Tailteann Games

    According to Irish legend, the Tailteann Games were first established in 632 BC near the Hill of Tara, by the High King of All Ireland, Lugh. He founded the games in memory of his foster mother, Tailte, who had died of exhaustion whilst clearing the plains of Ireland for agriculture.

    Lugh was not only the High King but also the Celtic god of the sun, harvest and light, he established the Celtic Festival of Lughnasadh, one of the four great festivals in Ireland. Lughnasadh is celebrated on the 1st of August, marking the beginning of Autumn and the celebration of the harvest season. The Funeral Festival honouring his foster mother, Aonach Tailteann, lasted two week and were celebrated during the Lughnasadh Festival. The last Tailteann Games were celebrated in 1168 AD, as the last High King of Ireland, Ruadhri O’Connor sat on the throne, just before the Anglo-Norman invasion.
