Ali has a beautifully gentle and sensitive approach to life. His kindness and deep wisdom has touched many people through his healing work and his music. Those who know him personally generally agree that he walks the Earth with one foot in the world of Spirit and the other placed firmly on the ground. His profound awareness and ability to feel the energy fields of others’ allows him to assist people into stepping into the light of their true and authentic selves, shedding the many layers of restrictive patterning. Through the use of his words and wisdom, he creates and holds a loving space for others to awaken, heal and empower themselves; re-connecting with the beauty and grace of truth, simplicity and love.
From an early age Ali found a great affinity with nature along with the ancient and sacred places. As he got older he dedicated more time to exploring the sacred sites and ancient standing stones of Scotland and England, and at the age of 23, while spending time vision questing in sacred land on the Outer Hebridian Islands, he experienced a great awakening and reconnection to the Spirit world. He was then guided through 3 weeks of transformational processes and initiation that led him through a great re-awakening to his shamanic self and path in this life. As he has continued to learn from the ancient wisdom of the Earth, through the land and the knowledge stored within the ancient stones, he has learnt to reconnect with his own spirit and personal medicine powers, and with them now acts as a guide for others.
In the years that followed Ali travelled in Northern India and spent a winter in the Himalayas, where he again experienced another profound initiation while in the solitude of Nature, before going on to study with a Tai Chi Master. His travels later led him through Mexico and into South America, where he spent 18 months in Peru and Bolivia. It was while living in the Amazon jungle with a family of Shipibo shaman, that he was invited to study their traditional healing methods which involved being initiated into their ancient ways and ceremonies with the sacred plant teachers. He now facilitates his own ceremonies which integrate the Amazonian teachings along with the knowledge he has received through his Celtic Motherland, where others can come and experience empowered awakenings and transformations.
Ali was drawn to music at a young age, with his style developing along with his deep sensitivity and connection to the sacred. His journeys have inspired his compositions and continue to do so, as his relationship with life ever deepens, leading him to discover new dimensions of healing through the use of sacred sound.
