"Journeying to the Well" with Deirdre Ni Chinneide
Deirdre Ni Chinneide is a composer, singer, psychotherapist, spiritual director and workshop facilitator and joins the C&SI team this week to speak on her work. She shares her story of exploring life and life experiences in music and art and helping to create spaces to encounter the Divine for others through music and workshops especially at her Sli Aonghusa retreat centre on Inis Mor. Deirdre reflects on how music is a creative force especially in this month of November to help us to come to terms of grief and loss - loss of loved ones, loss of loosing connection, and fear of loss. Her music CDs provide reflective and gentle space to sing the soul home with the reminder that each step is a movement of Easter, that to get to Easter morning we must pass through Good Friday but also that we remember that Easter morning is our destination.
