Dear Ones, I received a timely reminder of how important it is both now and in the months ahead, to stay calm... to access the peace within and to sit quietly in the saddle.
Horses are sensitive beings with HUGE hearts. Our ability to remain calm and practice peacefulness is essential in the months ahead - along with good grounding.
I was also sent this beautiful Fire Horse song. πππ Enjoy xx

Featuring the Sun, New Moon, Mars, Venus, Singing Bowl Wind Gongs and more.... this sound bath recording is a perfect accompaniment for the year ahead.
Celebrate this new beginning and solar eclipse. Stay grounded and relaxed in times of profound change. Each gong has been selected and played for its ability to bring the body, heart, and nervous system into harmony with the powerful creative energy of 2026.
Happy Chinese New Year - welcoming the Fire Horse!ππ₯π«
While the Horse is associated with:Β·
Freedom & autonomy
Vitality and momentum
Ambition and success
Strong social presence
Decisiveness and drive
The Fire element amplifies these qualities with passion, courage, and transformational force. Together they create a uniquely Yang, forward-moving year - one that supports bold steps, visionary leadership, and rapid progress.
May you be blessed with freedom, self expression, truth, courage and energy. π

πππ "the key to unlock Peace is mindfulness.. within our breath..all we need to do is come back within... slow down.. gently close your eyes, take a deep breath, another, and another.... Pay attention to the beat of your heart, love your inner world, pay attention to your inner world... to your heart, your inner child...Come back within, to feel your heart beat... for Peace " xx
The Venerable Bhikkhu Pannakara addresses supporters as the Buddhist monks' 'Walk for Peace' concludes in Washington, D,C,
We are entering one of the most potent combinations in the Chinese system: an energy of movement, courage, creation and heart-led living. This only occurs once every sixty years!
The Fire Horse does not whisper β it calls. It calls us into life, into creation, into connection, into movement. π«
After a year of shedding, healing, and becoming, we now step forward β not as who we were, but as who we are finally ready to be. π
The Year of the Fire Horse brings action, creativity, and powerful momentum. This blog explores its meaning, symbolism, and how to align personally and collectively with its heart-centred energy - and a unique sound bath to support your journey through 2026.

Still raining here this evening. It's been another grey, soggy day that can feel a little heavy.... so I wanted to share a story that has been quietly lifting my spirits. π
This is the ongoing story of a group of Venerable monks walking for peace across the United States, and of Aloka, a former Indian street dog who chose to walk with them. Through autumn colours, winter cold, injury and recovery, and countless small kindnesses along the road, they keep going - slowly, attentively, together.
Itβs not a loud story, or a dramatic one. But on a day like today, it feels like the kind of story that might lighten hearts just a little, and remind us that peace is often practiced in the smallest, simplest ways. May we all be blessed with love and peace. πππ
Step into the ongoing story of Aloka, a former street dog walking with Buddhist monks on a long peace pilgrimage across the United States. Through changing seasons, injury and recovery, plus countless small acts of kindness, the walk continues toward Washington, D.C..

It's time to let go of old, self limiting beliefs.
It's time to be the radiant soul that you are.
With love and Full Moon Blessingsπππ

Greetings and blessings dear Ones, ππΉπ Under a beautiful waxing moon, and the holy season of Imbolc, there arrives a potent time for dream-seeding and envisioning. The festival of fire and light; Imbolc is a celebration of fertility, purification, and of new beginnings. In Celtic mythology, it is the goddess Brigid who comes to spread the first light into the silent darkness that still covers the land. What ritual, song, or heartβs offering have you been holding close within your sacred heart? Let yourself rest and be, in the loving beauty of your becoming. ππ«π
For more information and stories about Imbolc as well as journaling prompts and well-being tips, visit our latest blog at :
Imbolc is an ancient Celtic festival that marks the quiet turning from winter toward spring. This blog explores its origins, symbolism, and gentle wisdom, offering simple ways to work with Imbolc energy for renewal, healing, and positive change in everyday life.
Happy New Year one and all βοΈ
Thank you for your support and encouragement in 2025 and here's to a wonderful 2026! With love Alexandra and the Gongs xx

Story-Well is a wellbeing service. Promoting relaxation, meaningful engagement and healing on all levels I use sound and vibration to encourage vibrational re-alignment by playing the gongs and telling traditional stories.
Using sound to promote relaxation it becomes possible to relieve stress, clear mental/physical/emotional blockages and boost the immune system. The more relaxed we are the more we allow our bodies in both the physical and non-physical sense to re-discover a sense of balance. Health improves and our creativity flourishes.
Working across Health, Community, Education and Business settings using some of the world's oldest narratives to inspire imagination I offer a simple yet powerful way to explore human nature -as well as core values such as loyalty and courage. Groups are encouraged to practice listening skills whilst exploring all kinds of themes and issues, including some of life's more challenging ones!
I also offer Gongbaths for groups and individuals. The Gongs are powerful instruments and invaluable tools for stress reduction & personal transformation. The sound of the Gong is organic, deep and nurturing. The βliving tonesβ build upon each other and evolve on their own, producing a sea of sound that is both timeless and alive. Through this experience, tensions are released, blockages cleared and the mind is able to stop its chattering.
Wellbeing boosts health, motivation, learning, productivity, clarity, staff loyalty and respect. Working with groups and individuals, recent commissions include: Silverhill School, Forget-Me-Not Dementia Group, North Yorkshire County Council, Yeovil Hospital, Minehead Middle School, Center Parcs, Unison South West, Exmoor National Park, Barchester Health Care, The Minehead Development Trust, Williton Children & Family Centre, Exmoor Home Educators Group, Barnfield Unit - NHS as well as a wide range of residential care homes for the elderly.
