The Deep Shore
The Deep Shore is a podcast that offers short, immersive episodes that seek to translate the soul of the living world through poetry and meditations. These episodes are designed to act as companions throughout your day, offering a moment in time, dedicated to beauty, language, connection, and the often left-untended landscape of our inner worlds. They are invitations to slow down and pay attention, to see clearly the nature of our own lives, to be willing to live and to feel.

BLESSING
This week on The Deep Shore, a poem of blessing. A poem to bless your life and bless your way.
This poem is inspired by John O'Donohue's 'Beannacht', which is the gaelic word for blessing.
The ocean soundscapes in this episode were recorded on wukaluwikiwayna (Maria Island) on the East Coast of Lutruwita, Tasmania, a place of deep remembering and heartache. May the spirit of the ocean touch your heart and bring a moment of peace to your day.
Words by Helena Turner.
Music by Cat Bednarski.
