In this powerful and deeply personal episode of the Health and Wellness Coach Journal Podcast, Dr. Jessica Singh sits down with Dean Hall, a licensed therapist and success coach with over 35 years of experience. A two-time cancer survivor and two-time world record-setting extreme distance swimmer, he is the first person in history to swim the entire 187-mile length of Oregon's longest river, the Willamette River, which he completed as an active cancer patient, and Ireland's longest river, the River Shannon, measuring 180 miles. These swims were not only physical feats but also marked spiritual and emotional turning points that led to an unexpected remission and ignited a powerful new calling. Dean shares the extraordinary story of how the death of his beloved wife Mary and his own repeated brushes with mortality catalyzed a profound transformation in his understanding of healing. Instead of following the conventional advice to "fight cancer," Dean began to question the cultural conditioning around illness and realized that staying in a chronic state of fight-or-flight was preventing true healing. Inspired by a shift in perspective—from battling disease to loving life—Dean embraced the healing power of nature and purpose, leading to an unexpected remission and the founding of his initiative, Wild Cure Way, to help individuals leave behind the confines of concrete jungles and digital distractions to rediscover the transformative healing power of nature through his nature-based approach. Throughout the episode, Dean and Dr. Singh explore how becoming one's own best advocate, reclaiming agency, and reconnecting with nature can lead to physical, emotional, and spiritual healing. Dean reflects on how his fight against cancer evolved into a practice of surrender, presence, and purpose—urging coaches and healthcare providers alike to walk alongside patients with humility, grace, and deep listening. His story is not only a testament to the resilience of the human spirit but also a reminder that healing is not merely about pursuing a cure; it's about reclaiming meaning and connection during the time we have. Dean and Dr. Singh explore how purpose, immersion in nature, and mindset shifts can foster profound healing physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Dean also shares how he reframed his fight with cancer by choosing to love life rather than fight disease, and how this shift in perspective empowered his transformation. This episode is a powerful testament to the power of purpose, the impact of nature on health and healing, and how coaches and healthcare providers can support individuals during their most defining moments through deep listening and by encouraging reconnection with what matters most.

The Minister for Transport will officially open a long-awaited bridge in East Clare in the coming week. Minister Darragh O'Brien is set to unveil the Brian Boru Bridge connecting Killaloe and Ballina next Thursday at 3pm. The major infrastructural project crosses the River Shannon one kilometre south of the existing Killaloe Bridge and will connect the Killaloe Bypass with the R494. Killaloe Fianna Fáil Councillor Tony O'Brien says it's a gamechanger.

There were heated exchanges over hogweed at the most recent meeting of Clare County Council. Giant Hogweed can cause burns and even blindness if humans come into contact with it. The potentially dangerous invasive species of weed is present in parts of Clare, having spread through part of the River Shannon catchment, including alongside the River Blackwater in South-East Clare. A motion came before this month's Council meeting,urging the local authority to ask the relevant Minister to provide the necessary funding for the eradication of Hogweed. To speak about the issue of hogweed, Alan Morrissey was joined by Shannon Banks Sinn Fein Cllr, who suffered a burn after coming into contact with hogweed as a child, James Ryan and Clonlara Independent Cllr, Michael Begley.

This week it's a book club episode with Patsy Peril, who co-wrote (with Deirdre Nuttall) ‘Swimming Upstream: one man's fight to save the Atlantic salmon'. It's a fascinating memoir about the life of a netsman on the River Shannon.  Patsy talks to us about the importance of the salmon to the communities and villages along the Shannon and how the building of Ardnacrusha decimated a way of life for so many. He talks about his work as a netsman and the increasingly difficult years, dealing with industrialisation, pollution, salmon farms and overfishing which led to the decline of salmon numbers before his eyes. But he also details his efforts to fight for the salmon and a friendship with the lifelong wild salmon campaigner, Orri Vigfússon, that developed along the way. ‘Swimming Upstream: one man's fight to save the Atlantic salmon' is available in all good bookshops.  Keep up to date with all the latest Ireland on the Fly on https://www.IrelandontheFly.com and get regular updates on https://Instagram.com/IrelandontheFly.

fWotD Episode 2873: Geography of Ireland Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Monday, 17 March 2025 is Geography of Ireland.Ireland is an island in Northern Europe in the north Atlantic Ocean. The island, of up to around 480 km (300 mi) north-south, and 275 km (171 mi) east-west, lies near the western edge of the European continental shelf, part of the Eurasian Plate. Its main geographical features include low central plains surrounded by coastal mountains. The highest peak is Carrauntoohil (Irish: Corrán Tuathail), which is 1,039 metres (3,409 ft) above sea level. The western coastline is rugged, with many islands, peninsulas, headlands and bays, while the southern and northern coasts feature a smaller number of substantial sea inlets, such as Lough Foyle and Cork Harbour; no part of the land is more than around 110 km (68 mi) from the sea. It was administratively divided into 32 counties, gathered in 4 provinces, though current arrangements, especially in Northern Ireland, differ from this model. The island is almost bisected by the River Shannon, which at 360.5 km (224 mi) with a 102.1 km (63 mi) estuary is the longest river in Ireland and flows south from County Cavan in the province of Ulster to form the boundary between Connacht and Leinster, and later Munster, and meet the Atlantic just south and west of Limerick. There are a number of sizeable lakes along Ireland's rivers, of which Lough Neagh is the largest.Politically, the island consists of the Republic of Ireland, with jurisdiction over about five-sixths of the island, and Northern Ireland, a constituent part of the United Kingdom, with jurisdiction over the remaining sixth. Located west of the island of Great Britain, Ireland lies at approximately 53°N 8°W. It has a total area of 84,421 km2 (32,595 sq mi) and is separated from Great Britain by the Irish Sea, bounded to the north and south respectively by the North Channel and St George's Channel, and from mainland Europe by the Celtic Sea. Ireland forms the second largest landmass in the British Isles, together with Great Britain and the Isle of Man.The island has a temperate oceanic climate, mild and humid, and is warmer than other landmasses at the same latitude due to its position vis-a-vis the winds on the Atlantic Ocean, and ocean currents and circulations. The island is one of the least forested areas in Europe, though afforestation is growing, but has a strong agricultural sector. It has a limited range of mineral resources, and has only had two major gas finds, and none in the oil sector. Hydroelectric energy is actively used, and wind farms are extending; neither solar nor tidal energy is as yet much exploited.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:36 UTC on Monday, 17 March 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Geography of Ireland on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Emma.

Finally, it's our favorite time of the year – Irish fairy tale month! FOUR for the price of two!!! Turn down the lights and pretend it's raining because Kelsey tells two ghostly tales perfect for a dark and stormy night; Sheela-Na-Skean and The Dreamhouse. Then, Abbie follows it up with two very cool Irish creation/mythology stories Fintan MacBochra and The River Shannon.

As Ireland's capital faces a growing water crisis, a controversial multibillion-euro pipeline threatens to reshape the fate of the mighty River Shannon. This is a story of rural-urban divide, corporate thirst and a river's uncertain future.

Uisce Éireann will press ahead with a long proposed 170km pipeline from the lower River Shannon through the midlands all the way to the capital. But not all those living along the route of the Shannon Pipeline or near the site of the proposed water extraction are convinced. John Cooke reports.

Plans to pipe water from the River Shannon to a reservoir in Dublin have gone out for public consultation. Uisce Éireann says it's a "once in a generation" project, which would connect the Parteen Basin with a treatment plant in Birdhill in Tipperary and Peamount in Dublin. It's due to become a "spine" to serve communities along the route, with the potential for more infrastructure to connect it further out. Uisce Éireann will host a series of information open days at key locations as part of the consultation, which is also available online. To discuss this further, Alan Morrissey was joined by Pat Murphy, Senior Programme Manager with Uisce Éireann. Alan was also joined by Killaloe Councillor Tony O'Brien and Kay McGuinness, from the River Shannon Protection Alliance. Image (c) Uisce Éireann

Niall Gleeson was 13 years old when he realised he wanted to be an engineer. Influenced by his grandfather, whose love of tinkering and ham radio sparked Niall's curiosity for how things worked, he developed a passion for taking things apart and understanding the mechanics behind them. After earning his engineering degree from Bolton Street College in Dublin, Niall began his career with General Electric in the United States, where he installed gas turbines and power plants. He went on to lead major infrastructure projects across the UK, and Asia before moving back to Ireland to work with Shanahan Engineering. In this episode of the EY CEO Outlook podcast, Niall Gleeson, Chief Executive Officer of Uisce Éireann, joins host Richard Curran to discuss the major challenges of managing Ireland's water infrastructure. Niall reflects on his career journey, the infrastructure issues facing the country, and his vision for the future of Uisce Éireann. They also discuss:-                 Infrastructure Challenges: €60 billion in investment is needed to bring Ireland's water infrastructure up to modern standards.-                 River Shannon to Dublin Pipeline: 50% of the population will benefit from it. A vital solution for ensuring water supply not only to Dublin but also to towns along the way.-                 Network Management: Ireland's 64,000 km water network had a leakage rate of 48-50%, now reduced to 31% in Dublin and 37% nationwide.-                 Leadership approach: The importance of active listening and giving people time to find their solutions.-                 Private vs Public Sector: difference between the sectors i.e taking on new tasks often means stopping old ones.-                 Community Focus: Uisce Éireann's vision is to deliver for communities.-                 Housing Crisis and Infrastructure Capacity: Currently, the system can support around 30,000 new homes per year, which may not be sufficient for future housing needs.-                 Water Conservation: Protecting Ireland's water resources and using them responsibly.

In this inspiring episode, we sit down with Dean Hall, a two-time cancer survivor and powerful advocate for holistic healing. Dean shares his remarkable journey back to health after facing life-threatening illnesses and explains why he considers himself a "bio-haver" rather than a biohacker. He opens up about the link between environmental toxins and disease, shedding light on the factors that may have contributed to his diagnoses. He also discusses the healing power of nature and cold therapy, two practices that played essential roles in his recovery. From hiking scenic trails to embracing cold water immersion, he reveals how reconnecting with the environment helped him find peace, resilience, and strength. This conversation dives into his unique perspective on health and wellness, offering listeners actionable insights and a reminder of the body's incredible capacity to heal.Dean is a licensed therapist and success coach with over 30 years of experience, a best-selling author and highly sought-after speaker, a two-time cancer survivor, and a two-time world record-setting extreme distance swimmer. He is the first person in history to swim the entire 187-mile length of Oregon's longest river, the Willamette River, (which he did as an active cancer patient) in 2014, and Ireland's longest river, the River Shannon (180 miles), in 2017.Dean's unexpected radical remission from his cancers as a result of his immersive adventures in nature inspired him to create his organization, The Wild Cure Way. His mission is to encourage everyone to get out of concrete jungles, manmade boxes and away from digital devices and explore and embrace wild waters, deep forests and open oceans as the most powerful and means of authentic, deep healing for mind, body and spirit.SHOW NOTES:0:52 Welcome to the show!3:31 Dean Hall's Bio4:40 Welcome him to the podcast!6:32 The Willamette River7:20 Why he's a “Bio-haver”8:45 The advice he would give his 20 year-old self11:02 Pesticides, Herbicides and Chronic Disease13:48 The beginning of his and her symptoms17:27 His first diagnosis22:02 Nutrition & lifestyle changes for the Cancering process27:35 Leukemia & lymph swelling29:24 Victor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning32:29 *BIOPTIMIZERS GIVEAWAY*34:55 How the brain answers your deepest questions37:02 Dean's childhood journal & dreams38:12 His first exposure to cold therapy44:43 “Young Woman & the Sea” & “Wild Summon” movies46:27 The “Desert of Big Dreams” & Perseverance52:01 Supporting the Lymphatics54:16 Why cold water for cancer?1:02:02 The reason he started meditating1:11:43 His final piece of advice1:17:58 Where to find himRESOURCES:Website: The Wild Cure WayBook: The Wild CureIG: @deanhallofficialBiOptimizer's Giveaway - code: biohackerbabes10Our Sponsors:* Check out Puori: puori.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/biohacker-babes-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

They kayaked Ireland's longest River Shannon, cycled 160km and climbed Ireland's highest mountain Carrauntoohil, all over 8 days to raise funds for better mental health literacy for young people.  The Rising 2024 is complete and this week Niall reminisces on the journey, everything he and the team learned along the way and what it means to complete it. Although there were challenges along the way, from injuries to capsizes, and moments where they had to dig deep, we have almost reached the €200k target which will go towards developing further programmes to help our young people.  You can donate to The Rising here: https://www.alustforlife.com/therising  For more mindfulness content check out Niall's 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.

With a growing population and economy. How can we address our water shortage problems? And is our infrastructure up to the task ? All to discuss with Angela Ryan Asset Strategy Manager at Uisce Eireann.

Bressie told Brendan all about The Rising which is a daunting week-long expedition, kayaking the River Shannon, cycling from Limerick to Killarney and finishing with Carrauntoohil next Sunday. The Rising 2024 is the flagship national fundraiser for youth mental health charity, A Lust for Life.

A former West Clare councillor says he has "zero sympathy" for Dublin despite claims the capital city is "running out of options" in terms of resolving water capacity issues. It comes as Uisce Éireann has reiterated its stance that the controversial Shannon tor Dublin water pipeline project - which would see 2% of the River Shannon's flow diverted to the capital each year - is the best option to prevent water shortages in the east of the country. The €6 billion project would involve running a 170km pipe from the Parteen Basin in Tipperary to a reservoir at Peamount in Dublin and it's expected the pipeline would cross roughly 500 farms. Former Kilkee Fianna Fáil Councillor Cillian Murphy claims Clare and other areas are being "constrained" due to a lack of investment while Uisce Éireann's focus is elsewhere.

☀️ Willkommen zu einer Sommer-Spezialfolge, der letzten Episode vor der Sommerpause hier bei EINFACH AUSSTEIGEN. Wir gehen in dieser Folge der Frage nach, wie man eigentlich ein Land auf authentische Art und Weise entdecken sollte, um herauszufinden, ob es das perfekte Auswanderungsland für einen ist. Heute geht es darum, wie man ein Land vom Wasser aus entdeckt. Denn, auch das ist je nach Land sehr gut möglich und gibt einem ganze neue Einblicke und Erkenntnisse. Und anstatt ich nur in Theorie darüber erzähle, habe ich mit Unterstützung von Tourism Ireland meine Freunde von Welttournee – Der Reisepodcast losgeschickt auf eine besondere Tour mit dem Boot durch Irlands herzliche Mitte.

The controversial Shannon to Dublin water pipeline has received government approval and Uisce Eireann is moving forward to the next stage. The 170 kilometre pipeline would extract water from the River Shannon to serve the Greater Dublin area. Costs and contingencies for the scheme have been developed and scheme estimates range from €3.3bn to €10.4bn with a management base cost of €4.6bn. Our reporter Josh Crosbie has been taking a look at this project.

This September, musician, podcaster, and mental health advocate, Niall ‘Bressie' Breslin, alongside a small group of friends, is set to embark on a remarkable fundraising journey to raise funds for the award-winning youth mental health charity; A Lust For Life, co-founded by Breslin in 2017. Following the success of their 2023 expedition, which saw them kayaking the River Shannon, "The Rising 2024" promises an even greater challenge. To discuss this further, Peter O' Connell was joined by Bressie and Bernie Keogh, Managing Director of A Lust For Life. Picture (c): A Lust For Life via Instagram.

A West Clare Councillor is imploring the Government to prioritise water infrastructure upgrades in rural Ireland with the same urgency as the capital. It comes as Cabinet has this week approved a €4.5bn project to extract 2% of the River Shannon's average flow each year, to address water supply deficits in the Greater Dublin area. Uisce Eireann says the project is neccessary as currently 1.7million people in Dublin are served by a single water source at the River Liffey. Doonbeg Fianna Fáil Councillor Rita McInerney says it's unacceptable that West Clare has to live with near daily outages, while Dublin flourishes.

This week's episode is a fascinating look at the famous Castleconnell Fishery on the River Shannon in Limerick with Pat O'Connor who is chair of the Castleconnell River Association. It's a fishery steeped in history when it was internationally renowned for its huge salmon in the 1800s to the early 1900s and it became a thriving centre for tackle development including the Castleconnell rod. But since the Ardnacrusha development dammed the lower part of the Shannon in 1929 to provide power for the nascent Irish Free State, the fishery became a shadow of itself, and coupled with modern day issues around salmon numbers, it's reckoned that they're now at just 3% of their historic levels. But, the Castleconnell River Association is trying to do its part in helping to save the existing broodstock and increase the numbers through conservation measures and ambitious projects. Pat O'Connor takes us through the incredible history of the fishery as well as the work they are doing with some hope for the future.  Rate, review and follow the show to keep up to date with all the latest Ireland on the Fly episodes on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.    Plus you can sign up for our newsletter on IrelandontheFly.com and get regular updates on Instagram.com/IrelandontheFly.

The black poplar may be a native Irish tree, although rare. It has been found especially in the midlands, predominantly in hedgerows in wet farmland near deep water-filled ditches, particularly along the River Shannon.

In today's episode I have the pleasure of welcoming back Dean Hall (www.thewildcureway.com) to the show. Dean and I explore how movement may help harness the superpowers of the brilliant ADHD mind.    About Dean   Dean has been a licensed clinical therapist and coach for over 30 years. Astonishingly, in that time he has conducted over fifty thousand face-to-face, one-hour sessions.    Besides being a best-selling author, and highly sought-after speaker, Dean is also a two-time cancer survivor, widower and two-time world record-setting extreme distance swimmer. He is the first person to swim the entire 187-mile length of Oregon's longest river, the Willamette River, (which he did as an active cancer patient) in 2014, and Ireland's longest river, the River Shannon (180 miles), in 2017.    This much time spent immersed in the flow of mighty rivers has changed Dean's life in many dynamic and miraculous ways. His Willamette River swim threw Dean into radical remission unexpectedly healing his leukemia without chemo or radiation while easing his trauma and grief from losing his wife fifteen days before their thirtieth anniversary. Buoyed by his firsthand experience of the healing power of nature when his lymphoma worsened and doctors once again pushed him to do chemo and radiation Dean chose to try Forest Bathing first. Dr. Qing Li's research on the proven efficacy of time spent in forests and how it boosted NK (Natural Killer) cells and the immune system by over two-hundred and fifty times for a period of two weeks gave Dean the courage to decide instead for a weekly regimen of forest bathing instead. In May of 2015, he started spending all day once a week forest bathing deep in the Mt. Hood Wilderness and by March of 2016 he was declared cancer free.   These gifts of natural healing pushed Dean to make it his organization, The Wild Cure Way, whose mission is to encourage the world to get out of concrete jungles, manmade boxes and away from digital devices and dive into wild waterways and venture into deep forests as a form of authentic deep healing and, oddly enough, environmental protection. He believes it's impossible to swim in wild waters or amble through ancient forests without falling in love with them and like Jacque Cousteau used to say, “You protect what you love.”

January can be a difficult month for a lot of people, but we must hold onto hope even in the longest and darkest days.  Niall is joined by Dan Murphy, lead singer of Irish band Hermitage Green. The band's latest single ‘Younger Days' comes with a profound and timely message about our current mental health crisis, something Dan has seen burgeoning in his own hometown of Limerick, which has one of the highest suicide rates in the country. Dan explains why now felt like the right time to address this topic in their music, and how the beautiful spoken word piece by Gregory David Roberts came to be. He and Niall also discuss the complexity of masculinity, how it's leading men to the bridge of the River Shannon and why reconnecting with community and spirituality may be the thing that brings us back to hope.  This podcast discusses some difficult subjects, 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.

In today's episode I had the pleasure of sitting down with the great Dean Hall. Dean has been a licensed clinical therapist and coach for over 30 years. He is also a best selling author (www.thewildcureway.com). Dean and I explore how harnessing his ADHD superpowers of curiosity and inner resilience helped heal himself from cancer by being the first person to swim the entirety of the 187 mile Willamette River.  Some say Dean has lived multiple lifetimes in his 63 years. I have to agree.  Come join me as we explore Dean's remarkable life and how he saw his inner resilience during the darkest periods of his life.  Besides being a best-selling author, and highly sought-after speaker, Dean is also a two-time cancer survivor, widower and two-time world record-setting extreme distance swimmer.  He is the first person to swim the entire 187-mile length of Oregon's longest river, the Willamette River, (which he did as an active cancer patient) in 2014, and Ireland's longest river, the River Shannon (180 miles), in 2017.  This much time spent immersed in the flow of mighty rivers has changed Dean's life in many dynamic and miraculous ways. His Willamette River swim threw Dean into radical remission unexpectedly healing his leukemia without chemo or radiation while easing his trauma and grief from losing his wife fifteen days before their thirtieth anniversary. Buoyed by his firsthand experience of the healing power of nature when his lymphoma worsened and doctors once again pushed him to do chemo and radiation Dean chose to try Forest Bathing first. Dr. Qing Li's research on the proven efficacy of time spent in forests and how it boosted NK (Natural Killer) cells and the immune system by over two-hundred and fifty times for a period of two weeks gave Dean the courage to decide instead for a weekly regimen of forest bathing instead. In May of 2015, he started spending all day once a week forest bathing deep in the Mt. Hood Wilderness and by March of 2016 he was declared cancer free. These gifts of natural healing pushed Dean to make it his organization, The Wild Cure Way, whose mission is to encourage the world to get out of concrete jungles, manmade boxes and away from digital devices and dive into wild waterways and venture into deep forests as a form of authentic deep healing and, oddly enough, environmental protection. He believes it's impossible to swim in wild waters or amble through ancient forests without falling in love with them and like Jacque Cousteau used to say, “You protect what you love.”

Professor Ralph Kenna As many friends of Story Archaeology will now have heard, Professor Ralph Kenna passed away and left the world we know, last Thursday. I received the sad news from his wife, Claire, last Friday. It is so very sad that it has taken me a few days to feel ready to write this post. I will stay in touch with Claire, and have sent her my deepest condolences but if any of you wish to leave a message of sympathy below I will willingly forward it on to his family. You can also send messages of sympathy through the link below. It feels as though Ralph has been a friend and colleague for years, but in fact, he first contacted me in early 2020. The impact he has had on me, and the work of Story Archaeology. in that time. is considerable. He now leaves a creative, imaginative, enthusiastic 'Ralph-shaped-space' but in his support for Irish Mythology through the 'Art for Sinann' competition and the on-going ÉIRÍ project, he has passed us an important legacy. I am certainly not, in any way, qualified to speak to his work as a statistical physicist. I clearly recall his patience in our first, quite lengthy, online conversation, as he tried to explain the processes that lead to his ground-breaking paper Maths Meets Myths: Quantitative Approaches to Ancient Narratives. I did read it, or did my best to read it, but I did appreciate that this process represented a innovative method of comparing the characters and structures of myth from various places and times, gathering some illuminating and very useful data. It was an inspiring cross-discipline approach; a way of working I very much admire! I also discovered that this paper, first presented in Moscow, was one of the most downloaded papers of the year! And, of course I mustn't forget that about a year ago, November last year, I think it was, he also published a futher paper, based on a similar approach, on the Kyiv bylyny cycle, the East Slavic epic narratives originating in modern-day Ukraine. Impressive! But I want to talk about Ralph's impact on Irish Mythology. I was delighted when I received Ralph's email, especially when I discovered that he was a longtime listener to Story Archaeology and was more than happy to help when he told me about his plans for a new project based on the character of Sinann, who gave her name to the River Shannon. Ralph had followed our explorations on Sinann, supported by Isolde's own translations, since the first episode of Story Archaeology. He was more than irritated when plans were made to set up a male, 'river god' sculpture in his home town of Athlone. In 2020, Ralph created a well-funded competition to raise awareness of Sinann and together, in October, with the support of Daniel Curley from Rathcroghan and Mal Rivers from the Irish Post, we launched the Art for Sinann competition, offering three prizes of 1000 euros. Ralph was also very active in promoting events to raise awareness of Sinann in Athlone. But Ralph didn't want to stop there! Data he had gathered in his papers on quantative approaches to ancient narratives, including the new paper on the Irish hero Fráoch', demonstrated strong evidence suggesting more active agency of women ,in Irish stories, than in story cycles from other countries. I must admit, I was delighted with this. I always felt that this was the case, but here was real supporting evidence. We talked this over in one of our lengthy online chats and launched a second even bigger and better project in 2021, Ralph came up with the acronym ÉIRÍ for the event. This arts and information project was not only intended to promote the centrality of women in early Irish stories but was also designed to resonate with the celebration of the position of women in Ireland in the recent past, now, and in the future. You can find out all about the ÉIRÍ. competition on Story Archaeology, of course, and there are also several podcast episodes that explore the journeys of a...

He is also a two-time world record-setting extreme distance swimmer who became the first person in history to swim the entire 187 mile length of the Willamette River as an active cancer patient in hopes of inspiring other cancer patients to refuse to be defined by a diagnosis. Dean also swam the River Shannon in Ireland in 2017 to raise money and awareness for the Childhood Cancer Foundation of Ireland.

More than 400 people in Ireland took their own lives in 2022. In Limerick, helicopters are often heard flying above the city in search of missing people in the River Shannon. But in response to this tragic situation, a group has sprung up to patrol the Shannon in the evenings to speak with people who are feeling desperate. Katie Flannery joins them on a Saturday night to see how they work and to hear their stories. We also hear about a law that is under consideration in several US states, which would allow people with mental health problems to voluntarily put themselves on a do-not-sell list for firearms. This programme contains discussion of suicide and suicide attempts. If you feel affected by this topic, you can speak to someone who can help.

Welcome to Where Is My Mind? A podcast about how we can better look after our heads and our hearts in the head-melty chaos of the modern world. Niall has just completed his biggest challenge to date, kayaking the longest river in Ireland, the 300km River Shannon. Niall and some friends took on ‘The Rising' as a fundraiser, to get the mental health programmes created by his charity A Lust For Life into every school in Ireland.  Although for a great cause, this gruelling challenge brought the team of kayakers to some vulnerable places, physically, mentally and emotionally. In this week's podcast we hear from Niall at different stages across the 7 days and how he really leaned on his mindfulness toolkit throughout every moment of pain, sickness and tiredness to push through to the end. This journey is a true testament to Niall's passion for passing these skills onto young people, helping them to understand their own minds.  Follow Niall on IG @bressie, TikTok @niallbreslin, FB @whereismymindpodcast and Twitter @nbrez and visit his website: www.niallbreslin.com.

Welcome to Where Is My Mind? A podcast about how we can better look after our heads and our hearts in the head-melty chaos of the modern world. In this week's episode Niall is going solo, talking about a new challenge he's undertaking that's very close to his heart.  Niall's whole work is based around a passion to push for paradigm-shifting change in our mental health systems. This July he's raising funds for his charity A Lust For Life, and the schools programme they've created to teach children to build resilience, increase wellbeing & enhance emotional literacy. Niall and some friends will be taking on the gruelling challenge of rowing the River Shannon in Ireland.  Niall explains the journey that led him to his research and advocacy work, why teaching kids about their emotions at an early age is so important and the systematic change we need to better support people through their mental health struggles.  To find out more or to make a donation visit www.alustforlife.com/therising Follow Niall on IG @bressie, TikTok @niallbreslin, FB @whereismymindpodcast and Twitter @nbrez and visit his website: www.niallbreslin.com.

It seems like everyone is heading to Slane for Harry Styles and Bressie fondly remembers his time at the iconic venue. Niall 'Bressie' Breslin joined Dermot and Dave in studio to chat all things Slane and his plan to kayak the length of the River Shannon this summer for charity.

Welcome back to the Candlelit Tales podcast, and this series on Waterways. This is the story of Lough Sheelin, the lake of the fairie pool. This is more closely linked to folk tales and the folk beliefs that surround the mysterious lake in Co. Cavan. At the North Eastern tip of the waterways that connect to the River Shannon, this lake has a number of tales of merpeople under the lake, or houses spotted under the surface. Our protagonist is known only as the student, and he was sick and tiered of hearing these superstitious stories his father would frequently. Unfortunately for the student, he had attracted the attention of one of the merpeople, and that's not often a good thing. The source of this story, stories tied together as one, was inspired by two stories of “Loch Síodh Linn” from the book ‘Meath Folk Tales' by Richard Marsh.

Clonmacnoise was among the busiest, most economically complex, and intensely sacred places in early medieval Ireland. In Animals and Sacred Bodies in Early Medieval Ireland: Religion and Urbanism at Clonmacnoise (Lexington Books, 2021), John Soderberg argues that animals are the key to understanding Clonmacnoise's development as a thriving settlement and a sacred space. At this sanctuary city on the River Shannon, animal bodies were an essential source of food and raw materials. They were also depicted extensively on religious objects. Drawing from new theories about the intersections between religion and economics, John Soderberg explores how transformations emerging from animal encounters made Clonmacnoise a sacred settlement and created the sacred bodies of early medieval Ireland.  Dr. John Soderberg is an assistant professor in the Department of Sociology and Anthropology at Denison University and holds his degrees from Middlebury College, Boston College (MA), and the University of Minnesota (PhD). He has excavated sites in Ireland, Scotland, and Wales. His main research interest is the archaeology of religion, with a focus on the development of large religious centers in Ireland from the Iron Age into the Middle Ages. Other interests include the development of cities, medieval Northern Europe, zooarchaeology, and three-dimensional scanning of artifacts. Dr. Danica Ramsey-Brimberg is a multidisciplinary researcher, who is currently the Coordinator for Digital Engagement for the International Center of Medieval Art and an assistant editor for the journal, Church Archaeology.
