Doing NYE my way!
Psychologies UK
|January 2026
From snacking on M&S canapés to crying with a film and comfy PJs, end the year how you want – no FOMO required!
As I feel I might have mentioned once or twice, New Year’s Eve is my birthday. When I tell people this they either assume that every single one of my birthdays has been a wild party since the day I was born, or they give me a look of pity, because we all know how difficult it is to pin anyone down on New Year’s Eve.
The truth is somewhere in the middle. I have held huge parties and had years where it has just been me, toasting to myself as everyone else toasts to the new year.

OTHER PEOPLE'S STRESS...isn't yours to carry
Whether you're at home or work, visiting with friends or catching up with family, the start of the year can stir up old emotions and leave us feeling a little off-kilter. Because New Year's stress doesn't just come from the dark, the weather or even the lack of cash - it's also from the people around us.

Don't fear the D-WORD
While most of us associate this month with fresh starts — new routines, dry spells, gym sign-ups — those who work in the relationship world call it something far more sobering: divorce month. And for good reason.

HARMONY at home
We spend weeks preparing our homes for Christmas...but does anyone prepare for when it's over? You know the feeling: the decorations have come down, the mince pies have been eaten, but your home doesn't feel like it's supporting you into the new year. I believe this is because our homes hold energetic residue.

How many times a day do you hear yourself saying sorry? ‘Sorry, could I just…?’ ‘Sorry, I can’t make it tonight.’ ‘Sorry, I’m not free.’ We apologise for taking up space, for saying no, for changing our minds, even for wanting something different. Sometimes it just slips out before you’ve even had time to check if it belongs there.
