A Year Of Alchemy
49 weeks. 49 practices. $49 NZD.
A year-long invitation to come back to your body and cultivate more presence, pleasure, power and play in your everyday life.
One small practice at a time.
What if you didn’t need to change your life to feel more alive in it?
Once a week, for 49 weeks, I’ll offer you something small to explore in your own body and your own life. This isn’t a programme to complete, or another version of yourself to become. Just a regular invitation to notice what happens when you give your own aliveness a little more attention.
A little Alchemy, once a week.
Each week, you’ll receive an email with:
A guided somatic practice
An audio invitation to listen to and explore in your own time. Beautifully curated. You choose when to listen. Allow 10 - 20 minutes.
A question to take with you
A journal invitation for noticing what the practice stirs, reveals, or makes you curious about. Imagine keeping an Alchemy journal for a year.
A little extra delight
Sometimes, I’ll offer something more - a passage from a book, a sensory adventure, or something I’ve stumbled across that feels worth sharing.
Every practice, journal invitation, and extra delight will live inside your private members’ space, so you don’t need to keep up. You can return whenever you like. Dip in. Wander off. Come back.
A year of presence, pleasure, power and play.
Presence
Practices for noticing, tracking, sensing, breathing, and learning to stay with yourself. Building the foundations for all that follows.
Pleasure
We explore the senses, desires, receiving, beauty, nourishment, and the pleasures already woven through your ordinary life.
Power
Root into the quiet power of inhabiting yourself more fully. Cultivate your boundaries, expression and feel agency in your choices.
Play
Movement, creativity, curiosity, experimentation, mischief, surprise, delight and a little reflection on what might stop us from allowing play in.Between seasons we pause. Three times during our year together, I’ll offer an integration practice. A chance to stop, notice what’s shifted, revisit what mattered, gather what you want to carry forward, and acknowledge what you might like to leave behind. Integration is part of the practice too. There is no rush to become anything here. Just a year of paying a little more attention to our own aliveness.
Perhaps this is for you…
For the sensitive ones, the deep feelers and overthinkers. The capable people, who work hard, care deeply, and sometimes hold rather a lot. For anyone who longs for a little more depth, beauty, spaciousness, and delight in ordinary life.
You just need a body, a little curiosity, and a willingness to notice.
Why I’m doing this
I'm turning 49.
And as I step into my 50th year, I've been thinking about everything I've learned, and everything I'm still learning.
I've spent many years studying the body, touch, movement, embodiment, and the endlessly fascinating business of being human.
I've also lived some life. I've loved, lost, mothered, worked hard, started again, changed my mind, got a few things right, made a few wrong turns, and found my way back. And I finally feel as though I’m starting to consciously and consistently inhabit my life.
A Year of Alchemy is my way of bringing all of that together.
It's a gift I'm giving myself as I enter my 50th year, and it's a gift I want to share with you. A year of presence, pleasure, power and play.
A whole year. $49 NZD.
That's it.
About $1 a week for 49 weeks of practices, prompts, invitations and access to your private Alchemy library.
I've deliberately made A Year of Alchemy unusually affordable. Not because I think this work has little value. Quite the opposite. I want lots of people to be able to say yes without having to think too hard about whether they can justify spending money on themselves.
And there's another part of the exchange that matters to me. I'm a single mum creating Alchemy alongside work, children, and ordinary life. Your $49 genuinely makes a difference to me and my family, while allowing me to create something I hope makes a difference in yours.
That feels like a pretty lovely exchange.
Yes. I'm in →
A few things you might be wondering
-
We begin mid-November 2026, around about the time of my 49th birthday.
-
Not much. These are small practices designed to fit into real lives. Some weeks you might give Alchemy 10-minutes, other weeks you may feel the impulse to linger longer. There is no ‘required’ amount of time.
-
There are no urgent start dates or deadlines. The practices I’ve already sent to members will be waiting in the Alchemy library for you. If you join mid-year, you can choose how you want to engage with the library. Ill be happy to provide gentle guidance.
-
I’ll send you a weekly email from when you join to mid-November 2027. It will be a note filled with kindness and care. I’ll include that week’s invitation and a link to your private Alchemy members’ space, where the practices live.
-
No, and not at all. A Year of Alchemy is an experiential offering for personal exploration. It isn’t psychotherapy, healthcare, or a substitute for professional medical or mental health support. You are always invited to adapt a practice to suit your body, circumstances, and curiosity.
-
As long as Alchemy exists. 49 weeks to create your library that you get to keep and return to.
One year.
49 small invitations to come back to yourself.
To notice more, feel more, choose more, play more. You don’t need to become someone new. Let’s see what happens when we spend a year becoming a little more intimate with who we already are.
