I am delighted that Ruth McCarthyis concluding series 4 today with an inspiring podcast about the importance of good listening skills.
The series started on Friday 25th March with Samantha Koshare Edouardestalking about how her partner is lovingly restoring John Lennon’s Sgt Pepper’s Circus Waggon as a message for global peace.
Every Friday morning for the next nine weeks, you can listen to a truly eclectic mix of guests, all engaged in what it means to embrace their mortality so they can help us to live more consciously for a better world.
I am delighted that Embracing Your Mortality is hitting the mark with so many people. It’s spread mainly through word of mouth, so I am particularly grateful to those who have passed on the link.
Series 4 is on its way (with help from the wonderful Cheryl from the Podcast Den), launching on Friday 25th March, with a truly eclectic mix of guests, all engaged in what it means to embrace their mortality so they can live more consciously for a better world.
I can’t believe how these past nine weeks have flown by. And, what a nine weeks they’ve been.
I do hope that listening to my third series of Embracing Your Mortality has given you inspiration and hope as we continue to sail through such turbulent waters.

This is to let you know of the Loss and Grief workshop coming up at the AMMERDOWN RETREAT CENTRE
Leader: Sue Brayne
Saturday, 11th Sep 2021
Starts: 10am – Ends: 4pm
Cost: £50 includes morning coffee, lunch and afternoon tea.
Day Course D1921
It’s been a tough time for so many of us over the past eighteen months, and this workshop is an opportunity to come together to talk about how grief and loss have impacted our lives.
Although grief and loss are part of the human conditions, many of us struggle to cope with the profound personal and spiritual crises that arise, the mental and emotional turmoil that we experience, or how our lives will never be the same again.
This workshop provides a safe space for anyone who wants to explore grief and loss and to understand the profound lessons they can teach us. It will also explore how feelings and emotions can become trapped in the body and discover ways to gently release them.
