Ireland is rich with ancient wisdom and has a unique connection to spirituality and the land that has been carried forward by some incredible souls.  In this episode, Niall is joined by the beautiful soul Nóirín Ní Riain, an Interfaith Minister, an internationally acclaimed spiritual singer, theologian, writer, musicologist, and Celtic Spirituality expert. Nóirín’s relationship with spirituality began as a small troubled child, when she spent a lot of time in Glenstal Abbey near her home in Limerick. This relationship grew all through her music career and expanded outside of christianity when she was ordained an interfaith minister in 2017. Niall and Nóirín discuss Ireland’s complex relationship with spirituality and how institutionalisation ripped away our rituals and connection, how listening to our hearts and to the land will always guide us home and share a mutual ‘grá’ for the wisdom of Nóirín’s good friend John O’Donohue.  This podcast discusses some difficult topics, please take care when listening.  Check out our 31 Days Of Mindfulness over on Patreon. https://www.patreon.com/niallbreslin Follow Niall on IG @bressie, TikTok @niallbreslin, FB @whereismymindpodcast and Twitter @nbrez and visit his website: www.niallbreslin.com.
