Letting Go - Book & CD

Letting Go a Mother’s Healing Journey through Diaries, Poetry & Song

 

Letting Go -- Book and CD by Claire Marie Barton

I have always loved keeping a diary and more recently I started writing songs and poems, inspired by my life as a mother,  by travel and by the sea and nature around me in west Cork. When my baby Alan died, I wanted to write a book to celebrate him and I wove the elements of journaling, songs and poetry together in my book and CD ‘Letting Go a Mother’s Healing Journey through Diaries, Poetry & Song.

 

When my baby died at birth, I did not expect the grace, love and blessings I was gifted beyond my grief. This is my journey of hope & healing. Click here to listen to samples from the CD. or have a look at my videos on youtube.

Card for the Month: September 2025 – ‘Selenite’

Card for the Month: September 2025 – ‘Selenite’

This month’s oracle card is Selenite – a crystal of cleansing, clearing, and fresh possibilities. The message is simple: clear with lightness. Let go of what no longer serves you, not with heaviness, but with joy. Just like the jackdaws I watched outside my window – exploring, realising something wasn’t right, and moving on with ease.

Earthsong

I wrote this song during my very first Earthsong Camp back in 2013, as a way to capture the magic of the experience — the connection, the nature, the music, and the deep sense of community.
