This week, Diarmuid Lyng is Passing Through!
Many of us simply speak. Others load their language up with love, respect, humor, humility, kindness, poetry and play. Today’s guest, Diarmuid Lyng, is one of the latter.
Diarmuid is an educator, former Wexford hurling captain, facilitator and lover of nature with a great passion for the Irish language. His work is rooted in a deep commitment to helping others find clarity, purpose, and connection in their lives, while ensuring Ireland’s cultural heritage continues to inspire and transform future generations.
In our conversation we of course talk about language, we talk about faith in the unfolding moment, working with the full-spectrum of our human emotions, creating sacred spaces where we can experience profound and magical moments of alignment with nature (and one another), facilitation, and space-holding. Near the end he shares a beautiful story about a recent event he held with singer Peia Luzzi, and ends with the imagery of a benevolent boatman guiding us toward better shores.
I really loved this talk and hope you do, too.
