Hi ,

Happy New Year 💙🎉

(or perhaps more honestly…easing back into your own pace and priorities).

At the start of a new year, there’s often pressure to decide, commit, and push forward.

✅ New goals...

✅ New intentions...

✅ A new version of you...

But here’s something I want to gently name:

If your goals aren’t aligned, your nervous system will quietly resist them.

And that resistance isn’t laziness, lack of discipline, or “self-sabotage"...

We actually like resistance here (yes, I said it 😄).

Because the truth is - resistance is valuable information 👀

It shows us where something feels unsafe, misaligned, or in need of gentler support.

When we listen to it, rather than push it away, resistance can help dissolve mental, emotional, and even physical blocks...

What alignment actually means (and what it doesn’t)

Most people think alignment should feel energising and motivating straight away - but often it feels quieter, slower, and more subtle than that.

Alignment isn’t about forcing yourself into a vision that looks good on paper.

It’s about:

• Your body feeling safe with the direction you’re heading
• Your nervous system not bracing or tightening
• Your goals matching your values, capacity, and season of life
• Your inner parts being included - not overridden

Oooo this sounds good - more of this in 2026 please 🙏

When you’re not aligned, you might notice:

• Constant second-guessing
• A heavy or pressured feeling around your goals
• Starting…stopping…restarting
• Guilt for “not doing enough”
• Quiet dread, even around things you want
• An off-kilter feeling...like something isn't quite right

Hmmm... kinda relatable, right?! 🤦‍♀️ (yes, me too)

Why EFT tapping supports alignment so beautifully

EFT doesn’t try to talk you into alignment. It gets curious...

It listens to the body, the emotions, and the quieter inner parts that often get ignored when we’re “trying to be positive”...

Tapping works more like a gentle detective than a drill sergeant 🕵️ opening things up, following the clues, and uncovering the layers underneath resistance, rather than arguing with it.

Through tapping, we can:

• Calm the nervous system enough to hear inner guidance
• Gently release fear about the future
• Soften self-doubt and internal pressure
• Include protective parts that are scared of change
• Create goals that feel true, not forced

Alignment often comes after safety - not before.

This month inside The Heart Circle 💙

This Month’s Theme: Aligning with Your Year Ahead

Next Tuesday at 4pm GMT, I’m hosting a live audio EFT tapping session for members (No video, no pressure. You can just listen and tap.)

In this session, we’ll gently work with:

• Fear or worry about the year ahead
• Self-doubt around your goals or direction
• Pressure to “get it right”
• Reconnecting with your inner guidance
• Creating a felt sense of alignment - in your body, not just your mind

This is an audio-only session, so there’s nothing to watch or perform - just space to tune inward...

And tapping together as a group can feel really supportive. There’s something special about sharing that kind of quiet, intentional space.

What you might experience

• Softening of tension in body and mind

• Emotional release and lightness

• A steadier nervous system

• Greater self-trust

• A clearer, more aligned sense of what this year is really asking of you
