I watch people wake up from anaesthesia for a living. What I’ve noticed about their breathing stays with me long after my shift ends. 🌿

For five years, I’ve worked as a nurse in Recovery, monitoring blood pressure, oxygen saturation, breathing and pulse.

Sometimes, a patient is fully awake, yet their oxygen saturation drops when supplemental oxygen is stopped. In many of these patients, I also notice shallow breathing. These drops can have different causes, but these observations made me look more closely at our everyday breathing habits — including my own.

How often do we hold our breath through stress, rush through our days and never notice?

We pay attention to food, exercise and supplements. Yet many of us have never been taught to recognise how we breathe.

Our health has many connected layers. For years, I’ve wondered why people can do so much to look after themselves and still feel unwell. Those questions have led me to keep learning.

Life begins with our first breath and ends with our last. The breaths in between deserve our attention.

I recently completed an intensive breathing course. Now I’m practising consistently, observing myself and already noticing benefits.

For me, this journey takes patience, self-discipline and gentleness. Making time to practise. Allowing emotions and tears instead of always keeping busy. Listening to my body and seeking support when I need it.

Conscious breathing has become a starting point in my own healing journey — a daily moment to stop and reconnect with myself.

Follow me for more as I share what I’m learning, practising and discovering about breathing — as a nurse and through my own experience. 🤍

With Love ❤️

WE BREATHE EVERY DAY. BUT HOW OFTEN DO WE NOTICE HOW WE BREATHE? 🌿

My journey with conscious breathing began around 20 years ago with a book called “Breathing Techniques”. It continued through yoga and, during the pandemic, daily Wim Hof breathing exercises followed by cold showers. For almost two years, this was my powerful ritual of connection with myself.

Working as a recovery nurse deepened my curiosity. I often noticed shallow, rapid or unsettled breathing in patients. I also saw how a calm presence and gentle breathing guidance could help some of them feel safer when waking from anaesthesia with intense anxiety.

Now, after four days of learning and practising the Buteyko method, I am looking at my own breath with fresh awareness. Even after years of practice, I discovered habits worth changing — including unconscious mouth breathing at rest.

This method has also been shared worldwide by Irish breathing educator and author Patrick McKeown, whose work highlights the importance of our everyday breathing habits.

For me, this course is another step towards understanding how gentle breathing practices can support calm, ease stress and bring us closer to our bodies. I look forward to sharing this knowledge with my patients and clients, including alongside Bowen therapy.

A heartfelt thank you to my teacher, Anna Reszka, for a wonderful course, your guidance and inspiration. 🤍

I leave with gratitude and a reminder: caring for ourselves can begin with noticing something as simple as our next breath. 🌿

Follow my page as I explore the power of breathing and share ways to manage stress, find more joy and live a more fulfilling life. 🌿🤍

MEDITATION – my daily protection against burnout 🌿🧘‍♀️

I’ve been meditating every day for almost two years now. Meditation has become a part of my life — as natural as taking care of my body, getting enough sleep, or eating well.

And I can truly see the benefits.

My concentration has improved, I’m more aware of my emotions, and it’s easier for me to pause before reacting to stressful situations. Difficult moments still happen — especially when you work as a nurse — but what has changed is the way I respond to them.

For me, meditation has also become one of the most important ways to protect myself from professional burnout.

Working in healthcare can be incredibly demanding, both mentally and emotionally. The pressure, responsibility, exhaustion, difficult situations, and the emotions of patients and others around us can take their toll over time.

From my own experience, I can say this: if it wasn’t for meditation, I probably would have left nursing a long time ago.

Not because meditation makes problems disappear. It doesn’t.
But it helps me not to let those problems take away my inner peace. It helps me return to balance and leave work where it belongs — at work.

And you don’t need to start with an hour.

Start with just 5–10 minutes a day. Sit down, close your eyes and focus on your breath. Don’t fight your thoughts. Simply allow them to come and go.

Consistency is more important than the length of your practice.

Give yourself time. With regular practice, you may begin to notice more calm, better concentration and greater resilience to everyday stress. 🌿

In a profession where we spend every day caring for others, we need to remember that we need care too. 🤍

What about you? What helps you switch off after a difficult day and protect yourself from burnout? Have you ever tried meditation? 🧘‍♀️
Share your experience — I’d love to know what works for you.

Sometimes just a few minutes of silence each day can change more than we realise. 🌿🤍

A little update from me… 🤍

Over the past few months, I’ve been focusing mainly on my work as a nurse in the hospital. Caring for patients has always been my passion, and it remains a very important part of my life.

In my free time, I still offer Bowen Therapy, Access Bars®, and Access Energetic Facelift™ sessions. My dream is to gradually dedicate more time to holistic therapies and expand the range of services I offer in the future.

As a nurse, I see every day how many people are looking not only for medical care, but also for support, balance, and healing on a deeper level. That’s why I continue investing my time in professional training and courses—to learn more, grow, and be able to help others in the best way I can.

I have now closed my own clinic in Cork and currently see clients at Dervish Shop & Holistic Centre Dervish Holistic Centre, Cork.

Recently, I’ve noticed that many people have been trying to book therapy sessions through my website. I’m truly sorry for the inconvenience, but it is currently not possible to book appointments online. I promise that in the future I will make the booking process much easier.

If you would like to book a session, please send me a message on Instagram or contact me via WhatsApp: 0892509987.

Because of my work as a hospital nurse, I’m often unable to answer phone calls while caring for patients. The best way to reach me is by WhatsApp or Instagram message, and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can.

Thank you so much for your patience, understanding, and continued support. It truly means a lot to me. 💚

Rogério has arrived in Ireland. 🇮🇪✨

I feel deeply blessed and grateful to be hosting him in my home.

Every day we spend together feels like a private retreat. We talk about life, spirituality, energy, consciousness, and the deeper meaning behind our experiences. Each conversation opens my heart a little more and offers practical wisdom that brings greater peace, clarity, and lightness into my everyday life.

It truly feels as though I’ve already been attending a week-long workshop. 💛

This Sunday, July 5th, Rogério will be leading a very special:

Meditation Workshop: Anapana Sati Yoga – Theory & Practice

📍 Dervish Holistic Centre
🕙 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM

✨ Two places unexpectedly became available, so we now have 3 places available. If you feel called to join us, this may be your opportunity.

During this immersive workshop, you will learn the foundations of Anapana Sati Meditation, explore the transformative power of conscious breathing, and discover how the breath can become a gateway to inner peace, presence, and expanded awareness.

You will leave with simple yet profound practices that you can integrate into your daily life to reduce stress, calm the mind, cultivate mindfulness, and deepen your connection with yourself.

This is more than a meditation workshop—it is an invitation to slow down, reconnect with your true nature, and experience the wisdom that already exists within you.

If you’ve been feeling the need to pause, breathe, and reconnect with yourself, perhaps this is exactly where you are meant to be.

🤍 We would love to welcome you this Sunday.

Only 3 places are now available.
If you feel called to join us, please send me a message. 🙏✨

One of my favourite things about living in Ireland is days like this.

The sun is shining, and for once, I don’t have to be anywhere or do anything.

I can simply be.

I sit in my garden, where the grass isn’t perfectly trimmed and everything is allowed to grow a little wild and natural. It’s a place where birds sing, butterflies dance, and countless little insects come and go, reminding me that nature doesn’t need to be controlled to be beautiful.

Wild strawberries grow here too, and as I sip my coffee in the quiet morning sunshine, I’m reminded how much joy can be found in the simplest moments.

No rush. No pressure. Just peace, nature, and gratitude for this moment. ☀️☕🦋🌿

✨ Why am I so excited about Rogério coming to Ireland? ✨

Because he is someone who chose a different path.

A successful Brazilian actor, he left behind a life of comfort and luxury to spend the last 8 years travelling through India, studying Bhakti Yoga and searching for deeper meaning.

Today, he says:

“Witnessing people understand how to use the breath to awaken consciousness is my dharma.”

Rogério lives simply, teaches from experience, and reminds us that true abundance is not what we own, but what we carry within — peace, love, gratitude, and connection with God. 💛

This will be his first visit to Ireland, and I don’t know when or if he’ll return.

If you feel called to learn powerful meditation and breathwork practices from someone who truly lives what he teaches, this is a rare opportunity❤️

This exercise looks easy… until your brain tries to do it in real time 😅🔥

These kinds of drills improve something called bilateral coordination — your brain’s ability to have both sides of the body doing different tasks while still working together as one.

When each hand performs a different movement, your brain has to work harder, creating new neural connections and improving communication across the nervous system.

Benefits of these exercises:
• better focus and concentration
• faster reaction time
• improved coordination and precision
• memory and attention training
• greater cognitive flexibility
• stronger communication between the brain hemispheres

Consistency matters more than duration — just a few minutes a day, 3–5 times a week, can make a big difference. It’s an amazing workout not only for your body, but for your brain too 🧠✨

Have you tried it yet? 😄

✨ Invitation to a Special Meditation Workshop with Rogerio ✨

Dear ones,
if you feel like you need a moment just for yourself… to pause, to breathe…
this might be exactly what you’ve been looking for 💛

📅 On July 5th, a special meditation workshop will be held, guided by Rogerio — a meditation teacher and practitioner of Bhakti Yoga.

What is Bhakti?
In one word: love ❤️

And this is exactly what you feel in Rogerio’s presence.
This is not just “another workshop.”
It’s a space created from the heart — a true calling, a genuine care for people 🌿

Rogerio has been traveling across India for over 8 years, deepening his knowledge and experience so he can share it with others ✨

Most of us already know how powerful meditation is…
we read, we listen, we understand.
But sometimes knowing isn’t enough —
we need to truly experience it and integrate it into our lives ✨

👉 And the truth is: nothing will change unless you give yourself the space to truly pause.

During these 6 hours (10:00–16:00), you will be gently guided in a calm, authentic, and deeply supportive way.
There will also be breathwork practices, helping you go deeper into the experience 🌬️

✨ These 6 hours may:
• calm your mind
• help you reconnect with yourself
• bring a sense of peace and lightness
• open something new within you

No experience is needed.
Just a little curiosity… or a quiet inner calling ✨

📍 Dervish Holistic Centre
💰 €80 (€20 deposit)

If you feel this might be for you — send a message 💌
I’ll be happy to share more details.

You are warmly invited 🌿
This could be a truly beautiful and meaningful experience ✨

❤️ With love

❤️
