Gizzy Lyng on hurling, meditation and more...

(Oldest Posts First)

Folks, just posting this up as a few people have got in touch with us directly to say they found out about the podcast here and have really enjoyed it.

****
In search for answers about himself and his relationship with the game, Diarmuid Lyng went and travelled the world. On that journey, which included a stay in a buddhist temple, he found some of the answers he was looking for but was also left with many more questions.

This week, he sat down with Alan O'Mara to talk about life now in West Kerry and to reflect on many of the life lessons he has learned along the way - http://realtalks.ie/podcast/episode-17-diarmuid-lyng/

Our podcast has been listened to over 50,000 times no and has featured Kevin McManamon, Brendan Maher, Oisin McConville, Briege Corkery and more. Go to www.RealTalks.ie to learn more or search for 'Real Talks' on iTunes or SoundCloud.

Nothing wrong with a bit of meditation. These people had built civilisations while us lot were still living in caves.

Meditation is excellent. Having done it as well as Cognitive behavioural therapy to deal with anxiety its very good to deal with your demons

It's probably something I should look into Ormond. I've always had my fair share of anxiety issues and anything that calms the mind would be worth a try.
