Hi my name is Audrey Cole and I am an Accredited Creative Mindfulness Practitioner (IMMA), mum of two amazing daughters and wife to an incredibly fun and supportive husband. When I completed school ( all those years ago ) I went on to college to become a Nursery Nurse (NNEB). Following this I worked in an Early Intervention Centre teaching Children with additional needs. I have always loved to teach, and found great joy in helping children achieve their full potential. For the last number of years I have wanted to go back to college but was unsure exactly what it was I wanted to study. Having attended a Workshop hosted by Louise Shanagher and Dr. Chris Willard titled 'Supporting Anxiety in Children and Teenagers with Mindfulness and Self Compassion' it ignited an awareness and excitement to learn more. I then went on to complete my training with Creative Mindfulness for Kids and spent the next few months setting up Mindful Mindset. I absolutely love being able to share the amazing tools of mindfulness in a fun and creative way that will empower children to take care of their mental health and well-being for years to come.

Hi, I'm Maria Catalina Piñol , before arriving to Patagonia, I lived in Europe, (Ireland) where I had the opportunity to work and specialize in the area of Mental Health Prevention and Early Intervention. I worked as an Accredited Play Therapist and family consultant, working in different agencies of the Irish community, charities, family violence centers, schools, and Psychology & Counseling centers. I also worked as a coordinator of projects, subsided by the family court, that focus on child protection and improving relationships. Over the years I got closer to contemplative practices and trained as an instructor in different programs such as the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Teacher Foundation course, the Instructor for adults F. Columbia, and the Creative Mindfulness programme, among others. In my free time, I provide my support to different charities that work with children in vulnerable situations or to environmental issues, and I write children's stories. I invite you to get to know me and support you wherever you are, from a place of contemplation, calm and Love.

Hi my name is Denise and I have worked with many children and teenagers over the past ten years through trauma informed care. I am passionate about the wellbeing of children, teenagers and adults alike and feel there is a strong need to support children's emotional wellbeing. I believe that teaching them the skills at a young age to deal with difficult emotions and difficult challenges that they may face can help strengthen their overall wellbeing and that they can grow to become strong resilient children and teenagers, which will also help them into adulthood. I teach children through creativity and play about Mindfulness, how to cultivate kindness and self love for themselves and others and how to calm their busy minds. Children learn all about their feelings and how to feel calmer with the overall goal being to decrease stress and anxiety. At present I feel there is a lot of need for my work in the local and wider community and feel that it is imperative that we teach our kids the importance of mindfulness practices. I am currently offering 8 - 10 week programmes for children, teenagers and also parenting programmes. I also offer workshops.

I am an accredited Creative Mindfulness Teacher based near Cork city. At present, I am teaching children and teenagers on a one to one basis in their own home. I teach an eight week mindfulness course and throughout this course the child or teenager will be introduced to mindfulness. They will learn how to relax and calm their “busy minds”, through a better understanding of their thoughts and feelings and they will learn how to be kinder to themselves and others through meditation, breathing techniques, art, journaling, and visualisations. By the end of this course each child/teenager will have built their own personal “toolkit” which will help them in their everyday lives.

I am a Creative Mindfulness Practitioner for Preschoolers, Children & Teens and a Mindfulness teacher and Coach for Adults. My training is accredited by the ACCPH, IPHM, IMMA & CPD. Based in Kerry, I am available to teach classes and facilitate workshops in person and online and also to provide one to one mindfulness sessions for all ages.

In my classes, I focus on cultivating the qualities of awareness, kindness and compassion to promote positive mental health and wellbeing for all who share space with me. I also facilitate an eight week mindful parenting programme which helps parents to cultivate their own mindfulness practice and to share it with their children in fun and creative ways at home. Some of the main benefits of doing this course are cultivating the practice of being a loving connected presence in your children's lives, even in the most challenging of moments, and helping your children to self-regulate when big emotions come up for them. In addition, I offer a free one hour workshop to schools and organisations working with children who would like to learn about the creative mindfulness method and how they can bring mindfulness into their classes and groups.

I teach mindfulness classes to children through creativity. I am passionate about promoting children's positive mental health and teaching them the gift of mindfulness. In todays fast-paced, digital and uncertain world it is important to teach children how to be present in the here and now. I can show children how to do that in my classes and also teach them the benefits of practicing kindness and compassion, gratitude and awareness of emotions and thoughts.

Learning mindfulness has so many wonderful benefits and I feel privileged to be able to share this knowledge with children. I can teach them how to find their inner calm, a tool that will be valuable for them throughout their lives.

I am a Creative Kids Mindfulness practitioner, Reiki Master, Energy Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) Master and a holistic massage therapist from Tipperary. I am a volunteer Parent/Youth Mentor with Le Cheile Youth Justice Support Services. With my therapies, I work with every age, from very young children to adults, and I have seen for myself the profound difference it makes to a person's wellbeing, when they are given the skills on how to care for themselves, and the knowledge of how their energy body works. Everybody deserves the opportunity to live a joyful and happy life. Children especially, deserve to have their world free of anxiety, worry and stress. Our children deserve to be given the coping skills to calm their inner world. By coming together as a community, I believe we can all help in achieving that world.

Bear Fruit promotes positive mental health for children in fun & creative ways. Classes equip children with the tools they need to cope and thrive in today’s world, to nourish roots of well- being & to plant wholesome seeds of kindness & self-compassion. Classes introduce mindfulness to children. I intend to create a special atmosphere, signalling to the students that this class is a time for restfulness, a chance for them to simply be..... and connect inwards! They learn how to calm their busy minds, understand & manage their thoughts and feelings, develop self-confidence & to cultivate kindness for themselves and others through arts & crafts projects, music, stories, discussion, breathing techniques/meditation & visualisation. My classes are about helping children bear the fruit of their practice. For more information on upcoming classes please contact me.

My goal and passion is to share the gift of mindfulness and self-compassion with children from an early age to help them develop self-care tools and cultivate kindness for themselves and others. My background is in Nursing and Special Needs Assistance in Primary schools. I like to create a space where children feel safe, contented and free to relax. Classes involve helping children learn basic mindfulness/self-care techniques which they can use to calm and relax their busy minds (through stories, discussion, meditations, art and craft activities etc.). Over the course of the programme, children begin to develop an understanding of their thoughts and feelings, thus growing emotional intelligence. With time and practice, they can begin to recognise how emotions “feel” and self-regulate accordingly. This is especially helpful for children who struggle with managing difficult emotions/struggle with worries/anxiety/fears. I work with schools, wellbeing centres, in community spaces and afterschool clubs offering six or eight-week programmes based on the principles of the Creative Mindfulness Kids Method, adapting classes to suit each individual’s needs.

I am very passionate about teaching kids Mindfulness & Meditation. I am an energy therapist and like most people who do this work would have had big issues myself when I was younger especially with self-love and self-worth, so feel quite strongly about being able to give kids tools that they can utilize themselves if and when they need to. I really believe that everyone will benefit from this work.

"You’re gonna be happy”, said life, “but first I’ll make you strong”. Teaching Mindfulness to Children can lead to many positive outcomes; it helps them feel calmer & more fulfilled, improves concentration and empowers them with the tools to deal with stress and anxiety. Objectives and outcomes are set over a 6 week period of 1 hour per week. I am passionate about teaching this to children, and with my training and expertise, I would welcome your child to the Mindfulness Chalet, Athenry."

While my children were small. I ran a small childcare service for 5 years. I have a huge interest in early childhood education and how we can empower children from a young age to be confident and encourage their strenghts to shine through. Having completed Creative Mindfulness for children in 2020 and introducing mindfulness to my students, I went on to study mindfulness for adults. Practicing mindfulness has had such a positive impact on my own life, my relationships and on my work. Practicing mindfulness is suitable for anyone at any age and can take as little as 1 -5 minute’s of practice a day to experience the results. I really believe that mindfulness is a powerful self-care tool that every child and adult should have in their back pocket for when they might need it. I have worked for 25 years in sales and marketing and have recently moved into Human Resources. There is a huge emphasis on employee wellness and the benefits of providing corporate wellness programs in the workplace are huge. I am passionate about introducing mindfulness and wellness practices into the workplace. Running regular engaging programs for employees promoting self care, wellbeing and coping strategies is a great way for employeers to take care of their employees. If you take care of your employees they will take care of you!Everyone has struggles at some point in their lives and sharing these practices could really help someone make a difference in their life.

I am originally from Limerick, but have been living in Birr for about 16 years. We have 3 kids, and our youngest son has Down syndrome. I have learned unconditional love, compassion, and kindness from my son, which he shows us every day. I have being praticising reflexology for a number of years and in this role I have noticed the rise in anxiety among kids, teenagers and families. My aim is to provide a safe space, to share the gift of mindfulness through meditation, creative expression and movement. I hope to bring mindfulness classes to kids and teenagers. I also hope to bring mindfulness to parents of children with special needs.

I am an advocate for being present in and living in the very present moment. From a journey of mental, emotional and physical illness to self-help, healing and recovery, I have spent the last number of years practicing mindfulness. Coupled with journaling, gratitude exercises, practicing yoga, meditation, energy healing, using essential oils and deep thought and reflection, I have reconnected with and healed my core centre, my life force, my tree of life. With my first-hand experience in dealing with illness, post-traumatic stress, and anxiety, I can share with you some of the techniques that I used to transform my life, to help you to become the best version of yourself, to reconnect with your core centre and to achieve your hopes and dreams.

I provide an overall Mindful and Wellness approach to living from the inside to the outside of the Mind, Body & Spirit, and promote and help to achieve a balanced, consistent, easy-living approach to daily life through Mindfulness, Meditation, Wellness, and through the Energetic Body.

Creative expression is something that has always been important to me, both professionally and personally. Participating in mindfulness can be hugely beneficial for many reasons. It can be helpful in terms of emotional recognition and self regulation. It can also promote a sense of wellbeing and self-compassion. I hold a Masters in Art Therapy. I also have a BA in Fine Art from Crawford College of Art and Design.
As a therapist, I have worked in many educational and residential settings, including experience working with The Blue Box Centre in Limerick, my own private practice in Cork and with The Brothers of Charity. I am delighted to be currently working as a Senior Art Therapist for The Rainbow Club in Cork. The Rainbow Club is a charity that aims to help and support children, teenagers, young adults and their families living with autism.

I started working with children over twenty years ago, teaching dance and drama. For several years I taught dance as part of the P.E. curriculum in national schools and ran courses for principals and teachers. After my son was born, I decided to focus on bringing movement and storytelling to toddlers and pre-schoolers at parent and toddler groups and play cafés. Pre Covid, I achieved a post graduate diploma in Cultural Event Management and ran a play café and children and family events. I’ve been practicing mindfulness and meditation for several years myself and after completing a wellbeing in schools course with the Irish Mindfulness Academy, I went on to do the Creative Mindfulness course. Teaching children about mindfulness and meditation through arts and crafts is such a great idea and the children really enjoy it. It is so important now more than ever that we give children the tools to manage their mental health. I am currently working with children aged 5-12 in North Dublin through Zoom classes with craft materials posted to the children each week.

I am a qualified Accredited Children's Creative Mindfulness Practitioner. My aim is to promote children's positive mental health and wellbeing. Mindfulness enables children to understand all of their feelings and therefore be kinder to themselves & others by using fun and creative mindfulness methods. I am a mum to two boys and I am aware of how difficult it can be for children growing up in this ever changing world. I worked previously as a children’s nurse for 15 years and had a tough decision to leave my job to care for my son which is when I found my love for mindfulness. I feel very strongly that children should be able to accept their feelings, understand them (both good and bad feelings) and who they are, and by using mindfulness techniques, I aim to give children the internal tools to help them deal with difficult situations they may encounter in everyday life. I feel so privileged to be able to share my knowledge with children and currently, I have the honour of working with children aged 4-12 years in schools, youth clubs and group sessions.

Mindfulness is awareness that arises through paying attention, on purpose, in the present moment, and non-judgmentally.” Jon Kabat-Zinn

Mindfulness aims to help you:

become more self-aware
feel calmer and less stressed
feel more able to choose how to respond to your thoughts and feelings.
cope with difficult or unhelpful thoughts
be kinder towards yourself.

Mindfulness supports children to develop skills to manage stressful situations, to focus and improve attention, builds resilience, improves emotional regulation and emotional literacy and builds positive mental health and wellbeing.
The benefits of mindfulness are becoming more and more well known. I believe that teaching these skills to children will help their mental health and wellbeing and help children grow to be more compassionate to others and themselves as well as having strategies to combat whatever life throws at them- which is essential in the world we live in as so many children are struggling with their feelings, emotions and life generally.
This has grown to become a passion of mine over the last few years- particularly due to the pandemic and the increase in mental health and wellbeing issues being identified in children and young people. Helping children to build a tool kit to cope is a driving force within me. I want to make a difference.
I have qualified as an IMMA certified Creative Mindfulness Practitioner, meaning I am able to teach mindfulness to groups of children aged 4-12. I am also trained to deliver the Mindful Heart Curriculum developed by my amazing mentor Louise Shanagher.

I am a creative mindfulness practitioner based in Dublin and can facilitate groups of children aged 4 to 12. I am currently furthering my training through additional courses in mindful parenting and creative mindfulness for pre school and teenagers. My training is enhanced with regular practice day sessions and workshops. In 2022 I attended a workshop on supporting anxiety in children and teens facilitated by Dr Chris Willard and Louise Shanagher and also attended Trauma informed mindfulness practices for kids with Louise Shanagher and Karen Power. Through art and craft, storytelling and activities within the classes, the children learn mindfulness. The classes focus on awareness and compassion based practices, which helps support the children's mental and physical wellbeing for life. As a parent to four children, I have witnessed first hand the immense benefits of the creative mindfulness method on their mental health and wellbeing. My background is in learning and development in multinationals. I have a huge love for learning and have been interested in mindfulness for some years. It is an immense privilege to facilitate creative mindfulness classes for children.

Hi everyone, I am so grateful to have completed my accredited Creative Mindfulness Practitioners Course allowing me to work with children ages 4 to 12. Being creative and bringing in lots of visuals is a great way to introduce children to mindfulness. Children will learn how their thoughts affect their emotions and reactions, and how that can reflect in the body. Scientific studies tell us that mindfulness plays a part in promoting positive mental health and well being. Louise Shanagher has taught so many children throughout the country. With Louise's teachings and vast experience in creative mindfulness for children, she has inspired me also to teach. I look forward to passing on Louise's teachings with the values and integrity that Louise promotes.

I am mother of 2 children and a Special Needs Assistant for my other work. I am passionate about supporting Children’s well-being and love working with them to help them reach their full potential. The mindfulness classes I facilitate creates a safe and nurturing space for children to explore their thoughts, feelings and develop kindness to themselves and others in a creative way.

At Let's Create Art Club Ltd we give children the opportunity to express, explore and experiment through visual arts. I became an accredited Creative Mindfulness practitioner in early 2023 and now teach mindfulness courses both in and out of school settings with small groups of children aged 4-12. Course length and content can be discussed as there is a degree of flexibility. Through meditation, discussion, breathing techniques and creativity, we will teach young children a wide variety of ways in which they can add to their mindfulness toolkits which, with practice, will assist them day to day and throughout their lives. For twenty years meditation and mindfulness - mind, body & soul - has been a regular feature in my life. I believe everyone should have access to both their own creativity as well as access to tools for mindfulness and self awareness, and the two together is a fantastic complimentary pairing with huge benefits. I feel incredibly passionate about being proactive not just reactive when it comes to mental health and teaching children early how to support their own good mental health as much as supporting someone experiencing poor mental health, is of equal importance.

Hi there, my name is Michelle Sheerin and I am thrilled to introduce myself as an Accredited Mindfulness Practitioner (IMMA certified). My training was led by the amazing Louise Shangher from Creative Mindfulness. My main focus is on introducing children aged 4-12 years old to mindfulness practices that will help them cultivate kindness and compassion towards themselves and others. Over a period of eight weeks, we'll explore different emotions in creative ways while learning how to calm our minds and bodies. As a certified SNA with trauma-informed skills, I believe it's essential to promote positive mental health tools that can be used throughout life. I also offer workshops throughout the year for both older children and adults who are interested in practicing mindfulness techniques. Thank you for taking the time to learn more about me!

Hi, my name is Natasha, I’m Irish and a Mum of two spirited young boys, living in Belgium. I am passionate about sharing the gift of Mindfulness with growing minds and empowering children through creative resources and movement. Mindfulness practices allow children to feel valued and supported in their life. Cultivating love, kindness, compassion, awareness and acceptance, children learn how to respond to the world around them and nurture and care for the world within. After searching for the key to happiness in my own life, Mindfulness took me on a beautiful journey home to my heart. And since then, it has shaped the minds of my own children in so many positive ways. To share the benefits of Mindfulness with other children is not only sharing a life skill but an endless gift. Please feel free to contact me with any questions. And remember, All of you belongs here.

Hi! I am Dora, a passionate mom who has a dream and life goal to inform and help parents and children to know the importance of developing Emotional Intelligence and Mindfulness and assimilating their tools into their daily lives. I started training as a parenting coach, continued as a Social and Emotional Intelligence Consultant and a Mindfulness Teacher for children. As a mother myself, I understand the joys and challenges of parenting and am here to support you on your parenting journey. My purpose is to empower parents like you to adopt positive parenting and equip children with the skills they need to thrive emotionally and socially. I firmly believe that cultivating emotional intelligence in children lays a strong foundation for their overall well-being and success. Through my own experiences with my children, I realized the importance of social and emotional learning. I was seeing the positive impact of teaching coping skills and mindfulness strategies to my children. This inspired me to delve into this field and become a children's mindfulness teacher. Empowering children to recognize and manage their emotions in healthy and constructive ways. To develop empathy, learn to love and care for themselves, in creative and joyful ways.

Hello, I am Marie Morrissey, a dedicated Creative Mindfulness practitioner and a seasoned teacher of both Cosmic Kids Yoga and traditional Hatha Yoga. I am also a mother of two children who often become my helpful assistants during the classes. With 15 years of personal yoga practice under my belt, I have developed a deep love and appreciation for this discipline. Over the recent years, I have immersed myself in studying and practicing mindfulness. This journey has not only been immensely beneficial for me but also for my children. My mission is to share these profound benefits with children everywhere, nurturing their minds and bodies through the power of yoga and mindfulness. Together, we can cultivate a compassionate, loving, and kind environment for our children. My primary focus is on empowering children aged 6-10 years through engaging, hour-long weekly sessions. These sessions, brimming with captivating stories, interactive games, and expressive activities, are hosted at the welcoming Clerihan Community Hall, in Clerihan, Clonmel, Co. Tipperary. My classes go beyond just physical activity. They offer a nurturing environment where children can explore their emotions, learn to manage feelings of anxiety and stress, and develop strategies to manage depression. By intertwining yoga and mindfulness, my classes provide the tools necessary for children to foster emotional resilience and mental well-being. Let's embark on this journey towards wellness together!

Hi, my name is Michelle. I am an accredited play therapist and creative mindfulness practitioner for children. I am based in Prosperous, Co. Kildare.
With my goal being the promotion of positive mental health for children, I offer individual and group play therapy sessions, and creative mindfulness classes for children.
I teach children about mindfulness using play and creativity. Children learn about their feelings and how to identify, process and manage them, helping them to feel calmer and promoting positive mental health and well-being.
Sharing mindfulness skills with children at an early age allows them to develop self care tools, assists with growing their emotional intelligence, and ability to self regulate.
Please get in touch for more information about upcoming group creative mindfulness classes for children.
