Irish Summer - Friday May 1st

There's something quietly healing about an Irish summer, isn't there? Not the blaze of heat or long guarantees of sun, because we don't get those, but something gentler and more rooted. A softness in the light, a scent in the air. May arrives with its sudden warmth, a kindness in the breeze, and the stretch in the evenings that invites us to linger.

April Blossom Thursday 30th

In April, isn't it easier? Because the blossom is incredible, but we don't celebrate it enough in this country. In Japan, the cherry blossom, or sakura, is a national obsession, and yet our seasons are just as good as theirs. It begins with blackthorn blossom in February, then fruit tree blossoms in March and April, then the incredible displays of hawthorn in May.

Scath Shadow Wednesday April 29th

In each other's shadow we live. This shelter speaks to a truth deeply rooted in Irish life, our interdependence and shared humanity. To find out more tune into Teresa from Mental Health Ireland.

Spring Tuesday 28th April

As I struggle to open the gate, I glance down and there it is. Frog spawn, clumps of it, floating like grey, slimy sponges on the surface of a puddle. I crouch down to be close to it, to the beginning of new life. That's Michael Morpurgo writing from his farm in Devon, where he's lived for more than 40 years.

Just One Person, Monday April 27th

There's a lot coming at us at the moment. Politics, conflict, the state of the planet, the constant cycle of news. And it can leave a sense that everything is too big, too complex, too far away to meaningfully respond to. And in that space, it's very easy to feel both overwhelmed and unsure of what, if anything, actually makes a difference. To find out more tune into Teresa from Mental Health Ireland.
