Would you ever leave a holiday let like this?!

I honestly can’t repeat the first words that came out of my mouth yesterday morning when I walked in and saw how my New Year Spanish guests had left the place 😳

And that was just the dishes…you can imagine the toilet and the hob 🥴.

Was I annoyed? Oh yes. Absolutely.
But interestingly, not for very long.

Because once the initial ‘grrrrr feeling’ had passed, I realised something important. I wasn’t really annoyed about the extra hour of work. That part was manageable. It wasn’t, after all, the end of the world.

What I was annoyed about was ‘the principle’.

And it got me thinking…

How many times do we say that?

‘But it’s the principle….’

When actually, if we’re honest, no real harm has been done. We haven’t been personally attacked. Nobody has set out to hurt us. No real damage has been done.

Our peace, though? That’s what ends up paying the price. As they say:

Holding onto anger is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die.

So I cleaned up. I sighed a bit. I moved on. And my peace stayed intact.

The next time you catch yourself feeling irritated ‘by the principle’ maybe pause and ask:

Is this really worth my energy?
Is this worth losing my calm over?

Most of the time… I don’t think it is.

And you can, as my partner would say “put it in a balloon and let it go.”🎈

Some days, if I’m honest, I stumble. I trip over my own doubts and fears. I had a day very recently where the self-criticism was loud and relentless.

And you know, sometimes I make mistakes. And sometimes I even repeat them!

But I don’t believe in coincidences. I believe the people we meet cross our paths for a reason. And I’m deeply grateful for those who walk beside me - who encourage me & who see potential in me that I often don’t, who remind me of my worth.

And I’m grateful for all the clients who come to No55 and trust me to enrich their journey. And for the women who’ve sat here in circle together with me 😊.

Sometimes I look back and feel amazed at how far I’ve come. I remember moments in my life when I didn’t think I’d make it through, or want to, when I felt lost or broken. And yet, here I am. Still moving forward. Still learning. Still loving. Still growing. I’ve become someone I never imagined I’d be - certainly not perfect, but always growing and unfolding.

And I’ve come to see that everything belongs. Every experience, every feeling, every lesson is part of a bigger picture - a story that’s mine alone. I’m not here to have it all figured out. Or to be perfect. I’m here to live, to learn, and to love as openly and bravely as I can.

And, along the way, to help others in my own unique way.

As I step into this year, I carry my past with wisdom, my future with hope, and this present moment with gratitude. I honour the whole journey - the highs and the lows - trusting that I am exactly where I need to be. Every step, every stumble, every leap is shaping me into who I’m becoming. Who I was sent here to become.

Because the real trick isn’t in having life figured out.

It’s in living it fully. Fearlessly. Gratefully.

It’s in receiving and giving help along the way.

One imperfect moment at a time.

And that - truly - is enough.

Sending love

Get yourself outside today. Feel the cold. Notice how it feels in your nostrils as you breathe in. Notice the sharpness in the air. I’ve got a full day of reiki today, but in between clients I’ll be doing just that.

You see I believe, when we walk in nature we have an opportunity to make it a spiritual practice. By inviting in new levels of awareness - the smell of the muddy earth, the sound of the waves, the texture or colour of the emerald moss on the wall, the elegant bending of branches in the wind, the creak of the broken branch, the frost on the ground, the moon and sun in the sky…our noticing can be a form of meditation.

And, as we bring our breathing and footsteps into a rhythm, as we notice the cool air entering our bodies and the warmer air leaving it, as we feel our feet connect to the earth and as we sense our oneness with all living things we bring ourselves into our natural state of being - grounded, connected, clear, and whole.

In this, the last Sunday of the holidays, no matter the bitter cold, give yourself the healing gift of a walk in nature.

And fully bear witness to the wonder of your surroundings. To the wonder of you. To the magic and miracle of the life force within your body.

Today - be here now.

Sending love,
Ali xx

🙏 Thank you to the 8 lovely women who came along last night to the first circle of 2026.

We brought in the New Year in meditation, in alignment with our higher selves, in connection with the greater energetic field, we created sigils and empowered them - ohhh and there was tea & plenty of chat too!

I love when women come together and share 💕😊 The energy was beautiful 💫

And…I’m looking forward to more of the same this evening with the 2nd group 💕😁

If you haven’t been before, and would like to come along to the next circles at the end of March/start of April then do get in touch 💕

Sending love,

This is the New Year.
A fresh page in your book of time.
Your next chance to really live.

Your opportunity to use what the last twelve months have taught you — about life, about the divine and about yourself.

Everything you searched for but didn’t find last year, waiting for you to look again. This time with more intention. More focus. More clarity.

All the good you reached for but didn’t quite get to - that lives in this year too.

This year, change becomes possible when your energy isn’t pulled in so many directions. When you develop more clarity about yourself and what it is you are here for.

All the dreams you held but didn’t fully act on.

All the hopes you had but didn’t fully choose.

All the faith you spoke about but didn’t fully feel.

They are resting here, in this moment, waiting for you to decide - properly - that this time matters.

And that YOU matter.

Every one of the coming 365 days offers you another chance.

Each morning. Each afternoon. Each evening and night. Each second of each day…is a chance to step back into your life with fresh eyes.

To step back into the fullness of yourself.

This is your next chance - and the next, and the next, and the next - at the art of living.

At the gift of life.

Sending all my love and blessings for this New Year.

As we approach the New Year bells, our attention inevitably turns to resolutions.

For many of us, that might include a few extra winter pounds to lose. I know it does for me!

And before we know it, we’ll be bombarded with dieting plans, “new you” promises, and messages on TV and social media telling us what’s wrong with us - and how to fix it.

But here’s a truth we often forget.

It doesn’t need to be a new year to make positive change.

This isn’t a once-a-year permission slip.

We can enter the freshness of our lives again and again, all year round.

In the small moments.
On an ordinary Tuesday.
After a difficult conversation.
At the end of a tiring week at work.

Each time we put aside what no longer works for us.

Each time we reassess what truly makes us feel happy, alive, and fulfilled as we move through our days.

As the poet Mary Oliver asked:

“Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?”

And the answer to that question doesn’t have to arrive on the first of January!

We are always changing, growing, and discovering more about who we really are - and about our true, divine nature.

What nourished us five years ago may no longer fit.
What once felt impossible may now feel achievable.
And what we once judged ourselves for may be ready for compassion.
What we once held tightly on to, we might be ready to let go of.

We are all on a journey to become the person we were created to be.

Not just at New Year - but in every season and moment of our lives.

And frankly, a few extra pounds is the least important thing about you…

So as you consider your New Year resolutions, remember this: you are pure divine energy, unfolding in perfect timing.

There is nothing about you to “fix.”

You are whole.
You are enough.
And you already carry everything you need within you.

As Rumi so beautifully wrote:
“Why are you busy looking for a cure when the disease is your separation from love?”

The only place meaningful change can ever come from is love.
Not guilt.
Not shame.
Not beating yourself up into becoming someone else.

Real change happens when we move our bodies because we honour them, not punish them.

When we nourish ourselves because we care, not because we feel unworthy.

So perhaps let that be your first resolution - starting now.

To love yourself a little more.

And an amazing thing happens - from that place, love naturally ripples outwards:

Into your relationships.
Into your work.
Your community
The wider world
Even into unseen realms….

Let us all step more fully into our divine potential - our potential for love - not once a year, but each day, and each moment in small and loving ways.

Sending love and New Year’s blessings

Today is my last day of reiki.

For this year anyways…😊

And as 2025 draws to a close I’d like to say a massive and very heartfelt thank you to all the people who have come through the doors of No55.

Some have come just once or twice, some have come very regularly for a spell, others throughout the whole year.

Some have become friends. Everyone holds a place in my heart & in my memories of 2025.

However often you come, thank you.

Lots of you have joked that the living room in No55 has some sort of truth serum in it!

I’ve loved every sincere and open chat, even the teary ones. Actually, especially the teary ones. There really aren’t many places in life where we can connect so honestly & deeply. A space that’s judgement free and safe. We all need that. So thank you for your trust.

I’ve loved seeing the changes in some people’s lives over the last year. As reiki and self reflection work together to make a magical difference. I get the privilege of witnessing people going deeper into their lives, learning to love themselves more, having more compassion for themselves and living in a more aligned state. So thank you for sharing your journey with me.

It’s also been a deep honour to have acted as a bridge between this world and the next. And loved ones have been able to make their spirit and love felt, whether grandparents, parents, husbands or children, or old friends…there have been moments and messages I will carry forever in my heart.

New or old, regular or not so regular client; I look forward to seeing you on the table in 2026, where our souls will meet as old friends and where our time together helps lead you to your highest good.

My intention for 2026 is the same as it is always; May it be for our greater unfolding.

New Year blessings to us all
Sending love, and deep gratitude, as always. And see you in 2026!

You have two bank accounts.

One is your current account, holding the money you have… and, at this time of year, the money you don’t.

The other is your personal energy account.

Just like your current account, you need to make sure you don’t slip into the red. Energy has to be paid in regularly. And it can’t be spent endlessly - especially when you’re already overdrawn.

And yet, that’s exactly what many of us do.

Most people are only vaguely aware of their personal energy account until there is absolutely nothing left to spend and they find themselves deep in the overdraft.

We all need to know what spends our energy and what pays it back in - and to keep those two in balance. Ideally, we never want to go into the red at all.

And if ever there were a time of year when our energy account really matters, it’s about now.

This season can be beautiful… and exhausting.

So much expectation. So much noise. So many ‘shoulds’.

Energy takers become especially sneaky at this time of year:

Overdoing it.

Too much screen time.

Too much shopping.

Eating the wrong foods.

Mess and clutter.

Old resentments resurfacing.

Worries about money.

Family tensions.

Alcohol

Too much time indoors.

Even nostalgia can drain us if we live more in the past than the present.

Meanwhile, the energy givers are often so simple - and yet are so easily overlooked beneath the tinsel and bustle and buzz of the season:

Rest.

Daylight.

A walk in nature.

A big glass of water.

Deep breathing.

Eating real food.

Gratitude

Moving your body.

Meditation

Singing loudly.

Saying no.

Decluttering

Being playful

Spending time with people who genuinely fill you up.

The best thing we can do is choose what feeds us rather than what drains us - during the ‘festive season’ and all year round.

I’m reminding myself - and you - that generosity isn’t only about what we give to others. It’s also about how kindly we treat ourselves.

So as the festive season continues - be vigilant with your energy.

What (and who) is depleting it?

What (and who) is restoring it?

Where is your energy current account sitting right now?

Wishing you a run-up to New Years filled with things that truly nourish and restore you.

And…It won’t happen by accident 😉

Sending love

In my life I never imagined I’d be visiting a prison on Boxing Day - or on any other day.

The truth is, none of us end up with the life we imagined we’d have.

There is next to nothing about my life that followed the naive ‘white picket fence’ dreams of my girlhood…

I remember, about 17 years ago, one of my dearest childhood friends bouncing her baby on her hip, standing in her country cottage vegetable garden, her dog lying lazily in the sun, exclaiming ‘How did I end up with your life instead of mine?!’

You see her life hadn’t worked out the way she’d planned (a word to the wise, the withdrawal method is highly ineffective!) and, for different reasons, neither had mine.

Still, it’s easy to mourn the lives we never had. The happy marriage we didn’t have, the friends we didn’t make, the house we didn’t buy, the career path we didn’t take, the language we didn’t learn…

But life rarely follows the script we once wrote in our minds.

And maybe that’s the point.

Macmillan famously said when asked the greatest challenge to statesmanship ‘events, dear boy, events’.

Perhaps that might also be true of life - an affair, a divorce, an unexpected illness, a death, infertility, a bankruptcy, a heart attack, a mental breakdown, the betrayal of a friend…just one of those can lead us into living the sort of life we never ever imagined for ourselves.

Certainly not one we would have chosen for ourselves.

I’ve personally come to the conclusion that the life I thought I wanted wouldn’t have been big enough to hold who I was meant to become.

If I’d had the life I wanted I would have been fairly shallow & selfish, I’d have developed very little empathy or compassion, and no resilience or strength. I’m sure it would have been a wonderful life - but perhaps not one of much worth.

So, instead of mourning the life that never was, let’s celebrate the one that actually IS.

Life is a gift. And like some Christmas gifts, it may not have been the one you’d have picked out for yourself…

It might well be radically different from the life we pictured, but it holds its own kind of magic.

Precisely because it’s the life we have.

And the life we have is exactly the one that can grow us into who we’re placed here to be.

And, in remembering that, we can also be a gift to life.

Sending Boxing Day blessings.
