Niamh Barrett
has been facilitating mindfulness courses since 2010, she a member of the Mindfulness Teachers Association of Ireland
(formed to uphold mindfulness teaching standards and guidelines), and is an ongoing student of socially-engaged Buddhism and the practice of council circle, primarily with the Center for Council and Zen Peacemakers (U.S.) She is an experienced facilitator of online mindfulness practice. In 2019 she founded showing up, a framework of online and in-person retreats and courses to facilitate mindful civic engagement with the housing and homelessness crisis in Ireland, and with other social issues. On Nollaig na mBan 2019 she facilitated a women's day-retreat, inspired by the bearing witness practices of Zen Peacemakers, on the theme of bearing witness to gender-based violence and resilience and she hopes to offer this again around Nollaig na mBan 2023.
Mindfulness is deliberately paying full attention to what is happening around you and within you – in your body, heart and mind. Mindfulness is awareness without criticism or judgment.
