I had never tried mindfulness, or really knew what it was, until I began a session with Jacinta. It is a truly special experience to feel completely present in a moment, and to be fully aware of your body and your emotions. Jacinta's mindfulness techniques really help me to maintain focus and positive light throughout the week, especially when life gets tough. It has changed my perspective on being content with what I have in life and being kind to myself. I can't thank her enough.

I found Jacinta kind, open minded and sympathetic to my needs. The sessions were always beneficial to me and I've always came away from her sessions feeling better the more grounded

As an anxiety sufferer, Jacinta has taught me many wonderful coping mechanisms of dealing with stress & anxiety. She has taught me how to avoid destructive habits. Jacinta has encouraged me to breathe, to be present, to accept, to be positive & to love & forgive myself. She has an amazing lilt in her voice, which is very soothing to the ear. Her sessions are always carried out in a very caring & non judgemental way. Jacinta has a true passion & belief in mindfulness, which is portrayed in her sessions. I cannot recommend Jacinta enough. I am so grateful to her for giving me the tools to be present rather than living in the past or future.

I am extremely grateful for the support and guidance Jacinta has given me over the last few challenging years. Her mindfulness, meditation, and breathing techniques have undoubtedly helped me to overcome life's challenges, building resilience to everyday stressors and reducing my anxiety levels. I would highly recommend Jacinta to anyone going through the menopause and as well as people experiencing burnout.

Jacinta is an incredible mindfulness and meditation teacher who has transformed my approach to life. Her sessions are thoughtfully crafted, blending positive thinking with practical meditation techniques that leave me feeling refreshed and balanced. Jacinta has a unique gift for creating a warm, welcoming space where personal growth feels natural and achievable. Her guidance in mindfulness has helped me manage stress, stay present, and build resilience. I feel more centred and optimistic since working with her, and I can’t recommend her enough to anyone seeking a deeper sense of peace and positivity in their lives.

About me

My name is Jacinta Byrne and I have over 20 years experience working with people in the public sector and the voluntary sector.

My journey to becoming a mindfulness coach and meditation teacher is one which I have reached due to the many life events which I have experienced to date.

Over the last 10 years, I have been looking for a way to create a deeper sense and awareness of self. I realised that I needed to change the way in which I experienced life and to use an improved self-awareness to help me find the joyful moments in each day.

Mindfulness has given me the opportunity and skills to view and experience the world through the lens of self-compassion, kindness, improved resilience and acceptance.

I now am looking forward to using my knowledge and skills of neuroscience, mindfulness, meditation and coaching to enable others to begin their own journey of self-development and resilience building.

I have a strong professional interest in supporting neurodivergent families, women’s health (e.g. perimenopause, menopause, endometriosis), Pregnancy and Infant loss, family members supporting loved ones coping with health issues, individuals experiencing workplace burn out and carer’s stress.
