I’ve been incredibly fortunate to have met a wonderful lady called Jenny Wilson. My first healing session with her was three years ago and since then, whenever I’m feeling overwhelmed or out of synch, Jenny is one of the first people I call for energy healing.
She has an amazing gift with crystals and intuitively, through her connection with spirit, knows exactly what’s required to help you shift blockages and connect to a higher level of vibration. Every session with Jenny has helped me to a deeper level of self awareness and given me the strength needed to proceed with the next step of my journey.
I’m delighted that Jenny has now set up a website Sacred Tribe Energy Healing and hope that this will enable her to help many more people. Jenny you’re a very special lady and I owe you a huge debt. A true empath and healer, a visionary and seer. Keep shining your light in your own inimitable way.

This is the first of the series of meditations I have experienced by Treasa Kerrigan. The meditation is set out very well. Beginning with a steady rhythm of a shamanic drum the body eases gently into the suggestion of the journey. The description of Loughcrew and the surrounding cairns brings a focus and personal touch lacking in many meditation cds. For me it brings a wonderful visual of this very sacred place that I have visited many times, I can only imagine this would be extremely useful for those who have never visited this site.
Meeting the ollamh fodhla in the journey was a wonderful experience, like an old wise friend with whom a release of any attachments is possible.
My personal favourite part of the journey was connecting with the white whispering stone. A sensuous description of the curves of the stone brings another dimension to the journey, and the senses become more engaged allowing for a deeper release and connection, to the land and the Cailleach.
Although the meditation is a specifically guided one, there are many times when the individual is allowed time to find their own personal understanding of the rock art, the surrounding site as well as the deity’s and ancestors involved. I enjoyed the balance of light and darkness throughout the journey, Treasa’s voice is well suited to guiding the individual on a journey, gentle and confident, it offers guidance and allows for space. I look forward to experiencing more of this series.

I must admit to being quite ignorant of many of the amazing sacred sites of Ireland, but it is something I have made a decision to rectify in the past year, visiting the Hill of Tara, the Hill of Slane and Kells for the first time last summer. Although it was my first physical visit to Tara, I had journeyed there in ethereal once before to your guided meditation beneath the Destiny Stone on Tara, and it was amazing to finally stand on the sacred ground that held the stories of so much history on both sides of the Veil.
Now once again I ethereally travel with you, this time through your guided meditation to absorb the ancient Light encoded in the sacred stones and spirits in Loughcrew Cairns, a place of power and ceremony, a place to seek Healing and Wisdom.
Treasa, you have been chosen to give this wisdom an expression, a voice for Mother Earth that all may hear as she speaks through you, so these sacred mysteries are recorded and not forgotten and the knowledge that these places of ceremony still resonate with the active vibration of all that was, that can be, and still is. And you serve her well!!
Your meditation guides, while upholding the integrity of the individual journey, you impose nothing as all good meditations should, for each connection with spirit is a personal one, one attuned to our individual resonance as every soul is sacred.
It is not by chance, that I journey through the Cairns of Loughcrew, or beneath the Destiny Stone on the Hill Of Tara, nor chance that you, a stranger then, gifted me a crystal skull that the Universal Light had told me would be gifted to me, nor by chance that by your sharing of information that we sat next to each other in a group in Ireland and experienced the awesome energy of one of the ancient Crystal Skulls ‘Synergy’and its keeper Sherry, who traveled here from Arizona.
And the catalyst in all of these experiences is you, and I am just one, one person who momentarily drifts in and out of contact with you, so never ever underestimate your light, for you are a true Light Walker. Thank you Treasa!!!

I have a couple of Treasa’s meditation cds & really like them all. This one is particularly interesting to me as Lough Crew is a very special & spiritual place I have always felt a deep connection with. Treasa brings you on a beautiful journey through the Cairns. It’s such a calming & intensely spiritual journey that allows you to reach a deep meditative state.
Treasa has a lovely soft voice that will gently guide you through the process to your inner planes in this ancient setting with a deep connection to our land, ancestors & Spirits. She really knows her stuff and has so much knowledge about the many Sacred Sites in Ireland.
I highly recommend this guided meditation to anyone at any level, particularly those with an interest in Irish Spirituality.

Another beautiful grounding guided meditation Treasa, initially the drumming caught me but as I immersed myself into it, your calming voice took me away to a forgotten time , which is always a pleasure in these modern times. You can bring me an energy that I don’t always get with other meditations, have recommended this Loughcrew meditation to others. Namaste . PS….Keep them coming.
