Coming from a strict Roman Catholic background in rural Ireland, she discovered druidry 20+ years ago and has been following the Wheel of the Year through seasonal ceremonies ever since. As a psychologist and celebrant, Eimear bridges the practical and mystical aspects of druidry, helping others connect with nature-based spirituality. She hosts weekly "Fireside Chat with Eimear" live streams where she speaks with druidry practitioners, and her work focuses on helping people find their connection to the natural world and their inner landscape.Where to find EimearWebsite: https://www.kilkennydruidry.com/Facebook & Instagram: @EimearBurkeDruidSeanchaiWeekly live stream: "Fireside Chat with Eimear" (Thursdays 8pm UK time) OBOD (Order of Bards, Ovates and Druids): www.druidry.org Additional resource: "DruidCast" podcast by Dave the BardAbout the HostI’m Iris Josephina—functional hormone specialist, orthomolecular hormone coach, and entrepreneur.
