Also included here are thought-provoking contributions on a range of subjects, including gratitude, belonging, friendship, courage and daring, from influentialfigures such as Abbott Mark Patrick Hederman, leading psychologist and founder of Headstrong, Dr Tony Bates, poet Brendan Kennelly, and producer/director Lelia Doolan - each helping Sister Stan to create an invaluable treasury for our times.
Finding Peace
While the Covid-19 pandemic has been a challenging time, it has also offered an opportunity for individuals to open up to an inner world. A time to find out that there is a human need for something beyond the routine and materialism of everyday life. Quite simply, people need some kind of spiritual sustenance. During this time, Sr Stan gathered writings from well-known people to understand how others bring peace into their lives every day."Where and how do you find peace in your daily life?" was the question posed to the contributors including TV presenter Miriam O'Callaghan, ex-rugby player Johnny Sexton, actor Tommy Tiernan, and women's health advocate Vicky Phelan among many others. Each individual had something different to offer, so the material here is diverse and wide-ranging. All the contributions are a testament to an inner life that needs to be sustained, especially in times of crisis.
Gardening the Soul
In a series of meditations centred on the garden, Sister Stan offers a thought a day to guide us calmly through our ever-quickening world. Taking her cues from nature, she weaves her spiritual advice around the seasons we all share, reflecting on and contemplating the natural treasures that exist 'in our own back yard'. With literary quotes reflecting the breadth of her wisdom Sister Stan gives a different thought for each day of the year. Inspiring, comforting and soothing; whether you need spiritual comfort or just a pick-me-up through the day, this will be a book to treasure. * 3 April - 'Nature has gentle moments: soft winds, sprinkling rain, warm sunshine, floating petals. But nature also has incredible power to harm and hurt: earthquakes, thunderstorms, floods, the constant cycle of predation and death, pain and disease. When we learn to recognise that this power and this gentleness are part of the same nature, we can begin to face the paradox of our own potential for gentleness and destructive power too.'
Gardening The Soul
Sister Stan, as she is affectionately known, was brought up on a farm in Dingle, County Kerry, one of the most beautiful parts of Ireland. It was there that she learnt to appreciate the earth, its stillness and its energy, its beauty and its bounty. In this hugely powerful and evocative book, Sister Stan looks to the earth that is so precious to our existence for inspiration throughout the year. Reflecting the garden's changing rhythms through the seasons, Gardening the Soul offers us a daily thought to keep us going as we face the challenges of modern life. All our moods are covered here... * in January, when there is silence in the garden, she looks at Solitude in our soul... * in March, with emergence in the garden, she offers Hope... * in August, when there is fullness and abundance everywhere, there is Blessing, and * in October, the time of harvest, there is Harmony Comforting and insightful, Gardening the Soul is an inspirational daybook of lessons gleaned from the wisdom of nature.
