Shift your State Series:
Reclaim Joy
4 Mondays · 6.45am-7.30am (Irish time) · June 22,29 July 6, 13 2026
A Summer Solstice series for anyone who is ready to reclaim JOY.
What is your relationship to JOY in these heavy challenging times?
JOY, Gliondar (in Irish) might be the most important thing now in a world that is wants to keep us in negative states.
Over 4 Mondays join me to explore our inner states of Joy, lightness, delight.
To reclaim joy is a radical act now. It's a refusal to be diminished. It's how we stay powerful, expanded, connected and free.
We are drowning in worry, anxiety and dread in the weight of this crucible moment.
This series is not asking us to bypass any of that but an invitation to intentionally expand our capacity to wildly flourish in these times.

What is Reclaim Joy?
Over 4 Mondays from the Summer Sosltice, we will make space for and actively choose Joy.
We will move through practices focused primarily on breathwork which are designed to gently, powerfully and intentionally move heavy energy in the body/ mind.
We will shift our attention and chemistry from hormones of fear, anxiety and anger to the endorphins of Joy agus Glionar ar Croí ( Joy/ delight / gladness of the heart)
Weaving conscious breathwork, embodiment, great tunes and some teachings from Celtic wisdom, psychology, Buddhism, Taoism and neuroscience.
Each session we will move through
- 1 embodied movement
- 3 breaths
- A guided meditation
- 1 journal prompt
Join me for the live sessions or practice with the recordings if the time is not right for you or you are not an early riser. You might liketo us the recordings every day for a 21-day sadhana practice of Reclaiming Joy between classes.( I will be doing that myself)
What we'll explore together
🔴 Inner State, Inner Season of Joy and our Inborn radiance and bliss
🔴 Savouring the glimmers of glee agus gliondar(delight) — those small, luminous moments that we often dont 'let in'
🔴 Finding the full range of emotional fluency - JOY AND sadness, heaviness AND lightness, darkness AND brightness, contraction AND expansion

Mari is a teacher of this time - embodied, earthbound and real - Can't recommend her work enough to any woman looking to (re)connect to a somewhat forgotten and deeply nurturing way of being, and true medicine for the world right now!
