Heartfullness
Heartfulness is a simple system of meditation and relaxation which can be easily integrated into our daily lives.
With regular practice, we can achieve a calmer and more balanced life.
Heartfulness can reveal inner resources and attributes such as resilience, tolerance and a calmer way of being. These attributes become stronger and more permanent, the more we practise.
This provides us with inner strength to support us in difficult times and situations. There are also many health benefits for our body, mind and spirit.
Anyone and everyone is welcome to try Heartfulness.
When?
Wednesday 24th & Thursday 25th March
What Time?
1.15pm - 1.55pm
Where?
We will be going Live on Facebook tomorrow Thursday 26th March so tune in!

Safetalk Training
SafeTALK is a half-day training program that teaches participants to recognize and engage persons who might be having thoughts of suicide and to connect them with community resources trained in suicide intervention. SafeTALK stresses safety while challenging taboos that inhibit open talk about suicide.
The program recommends that an ASIST-trained resource or other community support resource be at all trainings. The ‘safe’ of safeTALK stands for ‘suicide alertness for everyone’. The ‘TALK’ letters stand for the practice actions that one does to help those with thoughts of suicide: Tell, Ask, Listen, and KeepSafe.
The training is on next Tuesday, March 10th at 9:30 am in the Blue Room
The session is 3 hours long with a short break for tea/coffee in the middle
To sign up and secure your place - pop down to the SU Reception with €20 DEPOSIT (returnable upon completion of the training) and pop name down on our sign up sheet.
