ABOUT ME
My name is Rachel and I live in the beautiful village of Glenbeigh, on the Ring of Kerry. I have a deep appreciation for living in an area surrounded by nature. My connection to nature and the outdoors continues to support my health and wellbeing in many ways, while also inspiring my teaching and encouragement of Mindfulness with others.
I have always had an interest in helping others and a curiosity with regards to human behaviour and emotions. I have a Masters in Social Work through University College Cork since 2014, which offered me the opportunity to work in different sectors and environments promoting wellbeing. I completed a Diploma in Mindfulness and Positive Psychology with The Irish Mindfulness Academy in 2021 after my professional life led me on a path towards Mindfulness.
What is Mindfulness?
“Mindfulness is simply a clear, non-judgemental awareness of our inner and outer worlds. In particular, it’s awareness of the flow of experiences in your inner world- an alert observing of your thoughts, emotions, body sensations…”

TESTIMONIALS
“It was something I always wanted to do but never got around to. How perfect that Rachel was running a mindfulness course in Glenbeigh. Rachel created a lovely welcoming space. It was nice to learn more about mindfulness and why the mind works the way it does. Some really great take-aways and techniques. “
“I cannot thank Rachel enough for her incredible mindfulness course that I recently completed. Over the six weeks, I learned valuable techniques for managing stress and increasing awareness in my daily life. Rachel’s passion for mindfulness shone through in every class and her support and honesty made each class so meaningful. We were given the opportunity to explore different techniques to integrate mindfulness into our day to day lives and with Rachel’s guidance I really learned what works best for me personally. I enjoyed the informal chats with Rachel and the group each week and learned so much from these conversations too. I completed the course just before Christmas and found the tools we learned so incredibly useful during the busy season. I highly recommend this course.”
“I loved doing this course with Rachel. The environment was so calm and relaxing. Rachel is so nice and welcoming. I was nervous the first night especially in a new group but she really made me feel at ease. Rachel created a safe space for me to open up to everyone. She gave everyone a chance to discuss how they were getting on or if there was anything that came up during the week for them. She never rushed anyone and she always had a cuppa and nice treats ready for the chats. The six weeks went so fast. I highly recommend this course to anyone. Rachel’s passion for mindfulness is evident and definitely contagious.”
