Then I found I could heal it! My story of seeking balance began two decades ago. Nowadays many women have had amazing healing and empowering experiences with this practice. For those new to this space, a bit more about me on the foot of this event. **The [JADE EGG HOLISTIC PRACTICE](https://www.jadecircleanamarta.com/jade-egg-holistic-practice/)** A unique method that addresses all levels of being. Anchored in my shamanic background and two decades of experience in crystal healing. It has kept refining and evolving over the past nineteen years. Presenting the [Jade Egg](https://www.jadecircleanamarta.com/jade-circle-shop/) as a transformational healing tool. It is the culmination of my devotion to the Yin Taoist Practices and Alchemy Secrets. With the commitment to revive the Jade Priestess Lineage and the Dragon Mystic Codes. **[ANAMARTA](https://www.jadecircleanamarta.com/anamarta/)** *Called a Trailblazer in Feminine Empowerment, a Visionary, and a Spiritual Midwife. A Taoist Master by the Independent Newspaper.* Initiated by my grandmother into the family lineage of Medicine Women. I dedicate my life to helping women access their radiant health and self-empowerment. I’m a pioneer of the Tao of Feminine Empowerment. I qualified as a Taoist Master Trainer from Healing Tao UK. And became an Advanced Instructor of the Tai Chi Union for Great Britain. Teaching the Jade Egg Holistic Practice & Kuan Yin Qigong for most of my adult life. I teach ongoing monthly circles, online courses, weekend workshops, and week-long retreats. Women describe these experiences as life-enhancing and for many life-changing. An honour and a joy to hold this sacred space for many thousands of women around the world. Then when the Jade Temple Online started, the world gathered in one place. In the same spirit of love and what I’d like to call sisterhood medicine. Since its birth in London in 2007, the Jade Circle® has visited 14 countries over four continents. I'm grateful for the numerous places that have hosted me.

Experience Dublin's mysterious legends and myths on this 90 minute walking tour. ### **Legends, Ghosts, and Ghouls!** ***[Get your Tickets](https://www.eventbrite.ie/e/legends-ghosts-and-ghouls-of-dublin-walking-tour-tickets-1970375385820)*** Ireland has a unique relationship with its legendary past. Kept alive in the histories of the Filí and the Seanchaidhe, Ireland’s gods were not destroyed but - in the words of Mark Williams - demoted to lesser beings. This is an important element of Ireland’s oral histories, which in turn have coloured its popular histories and left many legends for us to parse over today. On the other side of Irish history we have the ballrooms, the salons, and the private studies of Dublin’s litterati. The seances and unwrapping parties, the mysteries and the macabre, all combining into the secret esoteric orders that strove to unlock the secrets of existence. Come explore with us where these two elements fuse to create the wonderful world of Legends, Ghosts, and Ghouls that are just as much a part of Dublin’s history as any of its citizens and buildings… Our tour has over 100 excellent reviews online and is ranked in the top tours on Trip Advisor. **TOPICS** * Maud Gonne & WB Yeats * The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn * Huguenot Cemetery * The Ghost of the Shelbourne * St. Stephen’s Green’s Grizzly History * Bram Stoker * Graverobbers * Darkey Kelly * Dublin’s House of Horrors * Tenements * Justice in Dublin **PRIVATE TOURS** We are also now doing private tours for groups, if you want to host your own tour get in touch with us.
