Mindfulness & Meditation,
Animal Reiki Bach Flower Remedies and much more.

I am a former Head teacher with over 25 years’ experience working in Education as a teacher, trainer and leader. I work from my therapy base in Bathgate and deliver support and workshops throughout Scotland. I am an experienced Reiki Master/Teacher, Hypnotherapist, Mindfulness Coach, Story Massage Instructor and Neuro Linguistic Practitioner (NLP). As a foster carer, I help children recover from physical and emotional pain such as trauma, self-esteem and attachment issues. I specialise in helping children, adults and families move from stress, anxiety, grief and depression to peace, optimism, confidence and happiness. I offer bespoke wellness packages and workshops for primary and special schools, foster agencies and charitable organisations. As a primary teacher I was fortunate to live and work in Spain and Kent before moving back to Scotland in 2000, eventually becoming a Head Teacher in 2008. Stress started to have a significant effect on my health when my mum was diagnosed with Dementia in 2009. Trying to work long hours in school whilst caring for her just became too much for me. In a dark, lonely and frightening place, I found Reiki (or as I know now, it found me!). Such was the positive impact it had on my physical, emotional and spiritual health I booked on a Reiki course and I haven’t stopped learning since. In 2012 I took a leap of faith and left Education to look after my mum and set up Calm Centre Therapies. I continued to train in therapeutic approaches for body, mind and soul including NLP, ThetaHealing, Mindfulness, Story Massage, Hypnotherapy. . I bring a holistic approach to our sessions using intuition and instinct along with professionalism, integrity, confidentiality and commitment. I often combine therapies in sessions to create the perfect space for my clients to heal. I teach Reiki and meditation to children, adults and even families together as well as visiting schools to deliver Story Massage and The Youth Mindfulness Programme. So, I’m still a teacher – it’s just the curriculum has changed a little bit! When I’m not working, I love long dog walks and cat cuddles (and one or both will often join a therapy session if invited!). Yoga and a bit of very slow running are good for my body and mind and I let my inner child out to play when my regular young foster lads are here for weekends or holidays. Contact:

Sunshine and monsoons and survived week 1. Did couch to 5k 5 years ago and never ran after ‘graduating’! fewer hills down at sea level though-Largs park run has to be easier than polkemmet park!

Back to Reiki today after a summer of fostering (and then recovering!!) A lovely lady found me via Reiki Pages (i so appreciate all the lovely reviews there that help people find me!) anyway afterwords I pulled a card-maybe find your ‘calm centre’ a wee subtle message too…Always up for a no obligation chat to see if there’s something I offer that could help you and your wee ones find that little bit of calm. Additional card info below 💜

After I get to 5k…🤣Maybe time to get the running shoes back on-and now I live in a place where the park run has no hills! 😂

In my early 20s I had a huge flare up of arthritis affecting all my joints with several weeks in hospital and wondering if my primary teaching career was over just as it started!. I couldn’t do any high impact sport at all. Even getting out of bed was a challenge. 25 years of drugs and injections and I found Reiki. The more I worked on stripping away layers of energy and emotion I’d held onto, the more I reduced the drugs until 7 years ago I stopped completely and am still in awe of what I achieved in completing the couch to 5k programme. Now to work on the psoriasis! 💪🏻💪🏻

A lovely few days of teaching - completing reiki teacher level in Rothesay and Reiki 2 in Largs. Working with two fabulous healers (and I got practised on which was wonderful) I’ll pop back over the weekend with an angel card or two. In the meantime have a lovely Friday evening. Aly 💜

Instead of saying, "I know what it feels like", let's say
"I cannot imagine your heartbreak".

Instead of saying, "You're strong, you'll get through this, let's say " You'll hurt, and I'll be here.

Instead of saying, "You look like you're doing well, Let's say, "How are you holding up today?"

Instead of saying, "Healing takes time", let's say "Healing has no timeline".

Instead of saying, "Everything happens for a reason, let's say "This must feel so terribly senseless right now".

And when there are no words to say at all, you don't need to try and find some. Love speaks in silences too.

Can't believe 12 years have passed already since I had a ‘proper job’ 😂 So many foster kids, clients, reiki students I’d never have met and although the last few years of my head teaching career were incredibly stressful as my mum’s health deteriorated (then mine!) as I tried to do everything on my own, I wouldn't change a thing as it got me to where I am now. There’s no wrong path and it’s never too late to make positive changes. Solstice always a good time to ponder -What would you do if you knew you couldn’t fail? 💜

A lovely card to take us into another week. Go on, treat yourself! Doesn’t have to expensive. And doesn’t have to be on just one day!
SALMON PINK ANGEL FEATHER: TREAT YOURSELF!
The Angels ask that you take some time out purely for yourself today. "Rejuvenate your soul!"

The Salmon Pink Feather is presented to you as a symbol of "self love". The Angels acknowledge that you are a beautiful being who gives generously and unconditionally to others. You give your love, attention, time and service both randomly and when approached. The Angels however, would like you to understand that there is an energetic balance required between giving and receiving. When you only allow yourself to be the giver, you can easily become fatigued and run down. This balance needs to be addressed so that you maintain good health and energy levels. The Angels ask that you work on this area by allowing others to give to you. They also encourage you to allow yourself to take a little time out to rest or to enjoy something that rejuvenates your soul. Today is the day for a little self-pampering!

AFFIRMATIONS: I am beautiful. I am able to freely give and receive. I am open and willing to receive with ease. I am able to give without losing my power and receive without embarrassment or guilt.I am worthy of receiving love. I love myself.

SYMBOLS: Job satisfaction, true vocation found, self love, following true vocation.
