Twin Hearts meditation in Rush
The Twin Hearts Meditation was developed by Master Choa Kok Sui to help flush out negative thoughts and emotions that congest our mind and body every day.
Meditating on the Twin Hearts enables the body to absorb a tremendous amount of energy which many refer to as Prana, Chi or life’s energy. This has a flushing and cleansing effect, then stimulating and energising effect through the practitioners’ system resulting in better physical, emotional and mental health.
For Stress Relief & Wellbeing. Scientifically validated to reduce stress and anxiety, increase memory, focus and positive brain activity.
Flush out negativity and achieve peace and stillness in less than 30 minutes.
COST: Donation Box
(Donations cover the cost of the room and proceeds are then donated to Pranic Healing Charity Ireland)
Sound healing, Meditation & Connection in Dublin 12
Saturday 28th of march at 12:00pm give yourself the gift of sound & stillness✨💜
This immersive sound journey is a sacred space to pause, reflect, and consciously set intentions.
Small group sessions are held in my home Sanctuary in Dublin 12.
This is a payed session a 30 euros energy exchange applies, to confirm your attendance you must email to info@soundsouljourney.com and a 10 euros deposit must be payed
A Sound Journey is a deeply restorative experience designed to harmonize your energy, promote relaxation, and facilitate healing.
What to Expect in the Session:
Gentle Pranayama (Breathwork) – We begin with simple breathing exercises to open the energy channels (nadis) in the body, preparing you to receive the benefits of sound and Reiki. This helps calm the nervous system and cultivate a state of presence.
Guided Meditation with Sound & Vibrations – As you settle into relaxation, you will be guided through a meditation accompanied by the soothing tones of Tibetan bowls. Their vibrations help bring balance to your energy centers (chakras) and deepen your meditative state
Himalayan Bowl Healing – the sound healer will use Himalayan bowls near or on the body, allowing the vibrations and specific frequencies to work at a cellular level restoring balance to you fisical, emotional and mental levels
Closing Sound Bath – The session concludes with an immersive sound bath, where a combination of instruments—such as Tibetan bowls, chimes, gongs, drums ...—create a soothing soundscape, allowing your mind and body to fully integrate the healing experience.
By the end of the session we'll enjoy a cup of yogi tea, time to share, connect and integrate the practice.
No previous experience is needed, just bring your intention and I'll provide everything else
love & light

Dance Workshop for Women: Walking With Confidence
Over the past two months, we’ve explored the foundations of dance through four different styles and choreographies. But there’s one essential element we haven’t fully tapped into yet: **the walk**. And not just any walk. I’m talking about a **confident and powerful walk**.
In this class, we’ll use some fundamentals of **heels** technique to learn one of the **hottest**, most **iconic** **walks** trending right now: *That’s Right* by Bontan. If you haven’t seen it yet… we might need to fix your algorithm 😉
This is a beginner-friendly choreo that has loads of room for improvers to work on the details.
If you feel comfortable, you’re very welcome to bring heels. But truly, most people don’t start there. Sneakers or runners that don’t have too much grip work perfectly. You can even take the class in socks. **Just come as you are.**
This is a space for us to tap into our confidence, power, and joy together, without pressure.
If you don’t see yourself as “the most confident girly in the room,” this class is *especially* for you. It’s a relaxed, beginner-friendly introduction where I’ll guide you step by step. **No experience is needed**. And if you **do** see yourself as a confident person, come let it shine and **be a reference for others walking the path you did.**
I cannot wait, so excited I am for this. Am I allowed to dream about a video of us walking together in a beautiful outdoor spot nearby? 😆✨
**Location:** The Liffey Trust Studios
**Date:** 28/03/2026
**Time:** 11:00
To reserve your spot, please join this event and complete the payment. You can choose between:
• **Drop-in class:** €16
• **Full module (4 classes):** €60 when paid in advance
Payment can be made at the class or in advance via this link:

Reconnect with your powerful side and take care of yourself through movement.
Rusalka (Bord Gáis Energy Theatre)
Plan to have a pre-show drink at the Bard Gais Energy Theatre, if anyone feels like joining. I'll add more information closer to the date.
Please buy your own ticket here: [https://www.bordgaisenergytheatre.ie/show/rusalka/](https://www.bordgaisenergytheatre.ie/show/rusalka/)
Driven by her consuming love for a human prince, water nymph **RUSALKA** abandons her realm to navigate his mortal world. A tale of longing, transformation and the high cost of desire, Dvořák’s rich, lyrical score brings this darkly poetic fairy tale to life with the iconic *Song to the Moon* at its heart.
Irish National Opera’s new production features a world-class cast, with Irish soprano **Jennifer Davis** in the title role. A rising star on the international stage, her performance in INO’s *Faust* (2023) was praised as “exquisite and vibrantly emotional” (Sunday Independent).
New York tenor **Ryan Capozzo** is the Prince, with American mezzo-soprano **Michelle DeYoung** as the witch Ježibaba and Croatian bass **Ante Jerkunica** as Rusalka’s father, Vodník. Soprano **Giselle Allen** is the Foreign Princess with baritone **Benjamin Russell** as the Gamekeeper. Completing the ensemble are sopranos **Rachel Croash** and **Sarah Richmond** and mezzo-soprano **Alexandra Urquiola** as the Wood Nymphs.
Direction and design are by the visionary **Netia Jones**, who co-created and directed INO’s Olivier award nominated *Least Like The Other, Searching for Rosemary Kennedy.* INO’s Artistic Director **Fergus Sheil** conducts the INO orchestra and chorus.
*Rusalka* is sung in Czech with English surtitles.

Would you like to try Jyorei - Japanese Energy Healing in Dublin ?
Hello everyone,
My name is Taka. Introduction Workshop to learn about Jyorei - Japanese Energy Healing.
\*\*Location :\*\*Oscailt
8 Pembroke Rd, Dublin
This introduction Workshop is a wonderful opportunity for you to learn about a simple yet profound healing art—Jyorei—which helps us become healthier and happier by shining Divine Light within us. Mokichi Okada, the creator of Jyorei, officially began his healing work, applying Jyorei in its earliest form in 1934. He viewed spiritual/physical impurities in our bodies as the cause of various forms of suffering, and developed Jyorei as a healing method to dissolve those impurities. Currently, over a couple of million people around the world are practicing Jyorei, and are experiencing remarkable benefits from it.
Jyorei is a shared act involving two people, one who gives and one who receives. No physical contact occurs , therefore we observe social distancing. Besides profound healing, the person receiving Jyorei may experience a sensation of tranquility and well-being. The nature of Jyorei is such that its blessings are even greater for the giver. Not only does the giver benefit by Jyorei, but he or she also gains a larger capacity for compassion and love for others by sharing these benefits with close relatives, friends, and neighbours.Jyorei can be given at any place and to anyone.
We look forward to seeing you at the class.
Jyorei story on Youtube.
[https://youtu.be/-ZnHILhENQM?feature=shared](https://youtu.be/-ZnHILhENQM?feature=shared)
**Who are we?**
Shumei, a spiritual organisation, fosters health, happiness, and harmony for all by applying the wisdom and insights of the spiritual leader, Mokichi Okada, whom its members refer to as “Meishusama”. Meishusama taught that a world free of sickness, poverty, and discord is within everyone’s reach through the spiritual healing of Jyorei, the practice of Natural Agriculture, and the appreciation of Art and Beauty.
Kind regards,
Taka

Yoga and Meditation Day Retreat (29th March)
Yoga is a form of physical exercise that will have positive effects on your body and mind. It is a highly effective tool to help calm the body and mind, as well as alleviate stress, leaving you more relaxed, energised and calm.
Yoga gives energy, which enables us to lead life fully and with enjoyment, and works on lots of different levels of our being.
Buddhist meditation techniques offer a way of encouraging and developing positive states of mind, such as calmness, clarity, emotional positivity and a deeper seeing of the true nature of things.
The day will be an opportunity to reconnect with your meditation or yoga practice if it has slipped, or serve as a great way to try out these practices if you haven’t done them before.
Sunday 29th March 2026, 10am – 5pm

Zazen Meditation + Dharma talk or Kinhin
The meaning of the word zen is meditation, zazen means sitting meditation. In zazen practice we begin to know ourselves, and to go beyond the limits of our personal ego. Within our tradition zazen is referred to as shikantaza, not doing, letting go of thoughts, dropping off body and mind. This sitting meditation is the focus of our practice. Language limits our ability to communicate the true nature of zen; it is something that is better understood
through practice. We are open to everyone interested in learning about zen.
Intro workshop for newcomers is available at 5.30pm each Sunday. The dojo is a sacred place and it is important to be considerate of everyone. We have many people that travel to practise together once a week or once a month. So for that reason it is really essential that we all know the structure of the sitting practise (when to sit, how to do Kinhin, the different bell sounds and their meaning etc), to ensure a silent, safe and meaningful meditation. And it's also great to meet everyone before the sitting practise. And answer any questions you may have.
We have zafus and zabutons (mats and cushions) for all to sit on. Chairs are available too.
Comfortable clothing for sitting, black or neutral tones best.
We greatly appreciate a donation of €5 to cover costs if it's possible for you.
Please arrive 10min before start so 6ish (if you're not doing the intro workshop).
You are very welcome to our dojo!

Using Philosophy to Cope with Current Events
So this month's prompt is more general. I think we can all agree that we are living in "unique" times that require coping skills. I think that one role and/or purpose of philosophy is to help us deal with our daily lives and our "unique" times. So, let's share our feelings and thoughts about which philosopher/philosophy we turn to in order to deal with our crazy events. Who/what helps you stay focused in your daily life and helps you sleep at night. I find that Stoicism with a little philosophical pessimism mixed in goes a long way in helping me deal with what I see as very destructive, fearful and mean spirited public policies at both the state and federal levels. Hope to see you on March 28th!
