The Self Care Sessions Is Coming To Kilkenny This Autumn

Brought to you by Mastercard Ireland, Benecol, & Disaronno

The Self-Care Sessions are coming to Kilkenny for a very special evening of empowerment, inspiration, and a little indulgence – because true self-care is equal parts mindset and me-time.

VIP and STELLAR are back bringing you a gorgeous event all about prioritising you, your health, and your well being.

In partnership with Mastercard Ireland, join us at the gorgeous Lyrath Esrate on Wednesday 15th October for a night to pause, reflect, and reconnect.

Hosted by Bianca Luykx, the evening will be filled with soul-soothing conversation, rejuvenating wellness moments, and delicious cocktails courtesy of Disaronno.

We’re also partnering with Benecol, who will host a panel on heart health and managing cholesterol – with none other than James Kavanagh joining the conversation.

Our inspiring speakers include:

Niamh de Brún (@niamhdebrun)

Lifestyle creator, fashion influencer, and mum Niamh de Brún is no stranger to self care… which is why she’s the perfect woman to join us in Lyrath Estate this October!

The Kilkenny native will be on hand to tell us all about how she prioritises wellness while she’s busy working and raising a family, and why slowing down sometimes is so important to her.

Fiona Morgan Coleman (@fionamorgancoleman)

Fiona Morgan Coleman is about all things home and health, and she’s going to share her self care wisdom with us this autumn.

A breast cancer survivor and Garda, Fiona knows a thing or two about finding balance in life, and looking after yourself when you need it most.

James Kavanagh (@jameskavanagh)

Presenter and podcaster Jame Kavanagh is known for many things… including encouraging us to look after our heart health!

The Benecol ambassador was recently diagnosed with high cholesterol, and he’s far from the only one. He’ll be chatting all about his life in the country, and why looking after your heart is so crucial – at any age.

Mairead Ryan – @shanti_therapies_hollistic_

Sound Therapist and Reiki Master Mairead Ryan will be joining for a healing and restorative sound bath session – the perfect way to end any Self Care Session.

Sound baths enhance energy, promote relaxation, improve sleep, and provide guidance and clarity. Mairead’s experience is sure to reduce stress and cultivate inner peace.

Tickets are exclusively available at Priceless.com for €30 (with no booking fee!) – and every guest will take home a fabulous goodie bag worth €100. Book now!
