The Philosophy
Emerald Being is a body of work devoted to conscious living, emotional truth, self-respect, creativity, purpose, beauty and the quiet courage it takes to live more fully awake.
It is for those who sense there is more to life than coping, performing, pleasing and drifting.
It is for the person who wants to return to herself, understand her inner world more deeply, and begin creating a life that feels peaceful, truthful and alive from within.
Through one-to-one mentoring, online courses, retreats, speaking and the Emerald Being Library, this work offers a warm, intelligent and spiritually grounded path back to presence, joy and conscious choice.
“Begin gently. Begin consciously. Begin here.”

Ways into the work
Emerald Being offers several ways to deepen your understanding of yourself and bring that understanding into the way you live. Choose the pathway that best meets you now.
01
Private Mentoring
One-to-one guidance for the moments when a wise, clear and compassionate perspective can change everything. In a discreet and fully confidential setting, Deirdre listens deeply, notices what may be difficult to see from inside your own life and helps you find the next step that feels true.
The Emerald Being Journey
A transformative six-week experience that turns self-awareness into a way of living. Discover how the conscious and subconscious mind, conditioning, mindset and emotion shape your days, and learn practical ways to bring greater choice, steadiness and intention to them.
The experience culminates in your own Emerald Being Blueprint: a personal vision that gathers what matters to you and gives your future a clear, living direction.

Ideas to Return To
The Emerald Being Library
Essays that illuminate the inner life and give language to what we often sense but cannot quite name. Thoughtful, beautifully written and grounded in ordinary human experience, they are made to stay with you.
The Emerald Being Film Series
Drawing on Deirdre's creative background, the Film Series will translate Emerald Being into image, voice, story and atmosphere — making space for ideas to be felt as well as understood.

About the Founder
Deirdre Mc Nally
At the centre of Emerald Being is Deirdre McNally - producer, mentor, speaker and writer.
Warm, intuitive and abundantly joyful, Deirdre brings a deep love of people and an enduring sense of awe to everything she creates. Her work is rooted in years of research, spiritual inquiry and a personal journey through adversity, healing and awakening.
What she shares has been lived, tested and embodied. Emerald Being carries her belief that when we understand ourselves more deeply, we can meet life with love, choose with greater freedom and allow peace, purpose, joy and a fuller sense of possibility to become part of the way we live.
A percentage of Emerald Being profits will be donated to charities and causes supporting women.
"Emerald Being is built on a simple belief: When we live with awareness, compassion and clarity, life becomes more peaceful, more joyful and more deeply our own."
