Déanfar scagadh ar na réimsí éagsúla den phleanáil teanga – an phleanáil chorpais, an phleanáil stádais agus an phleanáil sealbhaithe – agus déanfar iniúchadh ar an gcaidreamh atá idir na réimsí sin agus próiseas na pleanála teanga féin. Chuige sin, breathnófar ar stair agus ar fhorás na pleanála teanga in Éirinn ó bhunú an tSaorstáit anuas go dtí na 1990idí.

In this episode Barry Ó Siochrú is joined by Fiona Roche, Student Counsellor in the University of Galway. Fiona explains that ecotherapy is about deriving therapeutic experiences out of anything that is naturally occurring, such as, swimming in the sea or noticing your own breath. When coming up to exams, using the outdoors as a study space is a great way to help you focus, especially if you are feeling overwhelmed in a library setting. If you are finding it difficult to focus, stop for a second and ask “what do I need now?” Being aware and understanding what you need at a particular moment is so important. Fiona discusses the concept of a “Sit Spot”, which has been around for years, but at busy times in our lives it can be helpful to take a few moments out and just sit outdoors and notice the trees, listen to the birds singing and take in all the sounds, sights and smells around you.
