Echos & Roots is a space to slow down, listen and explore what it means to be human.
Through body-based practices, reflections and conversations, I explore the body, emotions, relationships, wellbeing, nature and the experiences that shape us, inviting you to feel, question and discover something for yourself.
I also explore sacred places and the echoes of the past, not only through their stories, but through what we can feel and experience for ourselves.
Grief is often hidden behind closed doors, tears are suppressed and we are left alone in our pain and sorrow.
But our ancestors left us stories that carry medicine to hold us, to nurture us and to brings us back into life after heartbreak and loss.
I am sharing one of these stories here, an old Irish tale called Mis and Dubh Ruis. It's a story of grief & romance and it's the story of a poet and harpist.
In that spirit I will also play the harp for you afterwards, taking you on a journey of connecting to your body, hearing the medicine of the past and feeling the music to soothe you.
As we move into autumn, nature's cycles can confront us with loss and can reawaken grief in us. I hope this episode is helping you to connect deeper to your own emotions and ancient healing wisdom.

The Medicine of Sound: Ancient Sound Healing You Can Experience Yourself
Music has been used as a way to connect, express and heal. Your voice is one of the most powerful self-healing tools.
In this episode we explore the science behind sound healing and how some of our ancestors built temples, churches and megalithic monuments to use sound in therapeutic and spiritual settings.
Then it's time to experience.
In the hands on part of the episode you will be able to relax with healing harp music and explore a Daoist sound exercise designed to release fear in the body and to invite in more joy and harmony.
Relax, feel the power of your voice and enjoy.

Finding Your Voice: How to Express Your Feelings & Needs
In this episode we explore what happens when we begin to speak from the heart by becoming more aware of our feelings, our needs and what is truly important to us.
Drawing on the principles of nonviolent communication, I look at how feelings can guide is towards our needs and why expressing what we feel and need can sometimes be so difficult.
What keeps us silent? What makes us speak in a critical and judgemental way and what helps us to be soft but effective in our communication?
If you want to dive deeper into this topic, in my live course Women Who Sing Themselves Home (https://www.echosandroots.com/liveclasses), beginning October 7, we explore our voice and expression and reconnecting with our inner knowing.
