A group of teachers and myself recently attended a course in “Confidence for Women”  given by Maria Lynch in Emmaus Retreat Centre.  Maria was in attendance well before the class began to make sure everyone knew where to go and would be on time.  We are a group of separated teachers much in need of a confidence boost.  Maria’s love of imparting this quality was evident from the very beginning.  She has an amazing aura and put a lot of energy into imparting her message.  She used every minute of the time to full advantage and I did not feel that there was a moment wasted.   She took care to make sure that everyone in the group was included in a sensitive manner.  She is a lovely caring person and that comes across in her courses.  Any participant could not fail to go away feeling better about themselves and their lives after experiencing her class.  As a teacher we are a critical bunch but there was nothing but praise for Maria from my group and I would recommend her to any other teachers who wish to achieve their full potential and learn to love themselves,  Would recommend Maria to anyone needing a confidence boost. She talks the talk and walk the walk. Iseult

 

I found this course to be of great benefit in identifying why my self-esteem is so low and ways in which I can improve on this. Karen

 

I found the course very practical-the group activities were very effective and Maria’s knowledge on the subject/field was extensive and relevant-good advice that I can use to help me. Carmel

 

I feel very positive after the workshop. I feel I would benefit by consistently doing the exercises covered as they help to rewire the negative thought processes and bad habits I have and maybe would not have been aware of. Caroline

 

I would recommend this workshop to anyone who needs it-it was wonderful,inspiring, powerful, wonderful course. Maria was a wonderful facilitator, beautiful personality. Ann

Fantastic opportunity to meet people my own age- with the same outlook on life who also need a tiny bit of guidance or a boost.
