Day 5 of the 12 days of Calm-mas is here with another Free gift 🎄🎁

Today we're stepping into the foundation of Calm Body - regulating your nervous system to create inner peace and allow yourself move beyond your struggles and heal.

If you're:
🪷Exhausted from the endless to-do list
🪷Stressed about getting everything done
🪷Overwhelmed by family dynamics
🪷Anxious about money, food, plans, people
🪷Running on fumes and wondering how you'll make it to the 25th

Your nervous system might just need a shift 💖

When you're stressed:
🧠 Your body goes into fight/flight/freeze
🧠 Your heart races
🧠 Your breath shortens
🧠 Your patience disappears
🧠 You snap at people you love
🧠 You reach for wine or chocolate or
🧠 scroll your phone to numb out.

This isn't a character flaw. It's biology.

And luckily I've created a simple way to regulate your nervous system in just 5 minutes 💃🎁

I developed the Lotus Moments Protocol while I was in an 8-week Buddhist retreat in Nepal in 2024. I watched my body heal from chronic hives, nerve pain, and reacting to everything in my environment (even lettuce and pumpkin).

The protocol is simple: 5 elements, 5 minutes = massive shift.
🪷 Loving-Kindness
🪷 Openness
🪷 Togetherness
🪷 Unbroken
🪷 Safety

Today's Calm-mas gift is the Christmas version of the Lotus Moments Protocol.
It's a beautiful PDF with:

🎁 The full LOTUS practice explained
🎁 Christmas-specific applications for each element
🎁 A 7-day tracker to help you stay calm through the chaos

It's free for you as a member of the Cup of Zen Facebook group

So head on over to Cup of Zen and I'll DM you the guide 🎁🎄💖

Today's gift comes from a story that's close to my heart. The story of how I got my eyesight back after the Dr's told me there was nothing more they could do and I would be using my blindcane forever.

The story of how I met His Holiness the Dalai Lama and the immense calm and inner peace I felt from him made me realise that life's wishes aren't about having my eyesight back or perfect physical health...

That having inner peace is the most powerful gift of all.

If you want to read the full story, keep reading.

Back to the story for those who want to hear it🎄✨

No matter what life throws at you, the most important thing to have is a calm mind.

I know this because on the day that I met His Holiness the Dalai Lama in December 2018 I had the chance to make one wish.

I was on my first Buddhist Pilgrimage to India and Nepal.

I went along on the Pilgrimage because I was taking the year off work and what a perfect end to my Eat Pray Love year than travelling to India and Nepal just like Elizabeth Gilbert did.

This trip was done with a blindcane, my vision had deteriorated quite badly and I was taking the year off work to find myself again because the doctors said I was going to keep losing vision.

Photo: Dec 2019, me with my Australian Buddhist teacher, Lama Choedak Rinpoche - proudly using my blindcane because without it I couldn't do stairs to get to the auspicious caves.

I lined up with my fellow pilgrims, about 40 of us, waiting to meet His Holiness.

I saw people crying and screaming as he walked in and was like 'right, I'm really missing something here' 😅 either that, or I'm not a true Buddhist yet.

But the moment changed when it was my turn to go up and shake his hand.

Oh my goodness, the inner peace exuberating from this man was beyond incredible

We looked right into each other's eyes

I felt his warmth touch my heart and send this incredible peace through my body

like everything just calmed down

everything felt at home.

His eyes, oh my goodness, I can still picture them as vividly 7 years later.

They had the Universe swirling around in them - stars, swirls like the milky way, they were endless.

Is this what complete inner peace gives you?

Compassion? Kindness? Forgiveness? Meditation? Letting Go?

This man was exiled from his home as a child and had to sneak out under the cover of darkness and walk over the Tibetan mountains to seek refuge in India.

1000s of his people died in these religious wars between Tibet and China

Yet he still had all this inner peace and not one ounce of hatred or a grudge.

He wasn't pretending

The peace was real.

As he spoke to me I realised

Far out, life isn't about getting everything you want

In fact, the Buddhist teachings are all about helping us navigate through the suffering that life presents us.

At that moment, looking into the captivating swirls of His brown eyes, I found myself wishing for, requesting, that one day I can share all of the knowledge and experience that I've learnt to help other's find their inner peace.

My vision loss journey had me in heights of anxiety

I had lost the life that I knew and loved

There were times I contemplated su***de

I just couldn't see through the dark clouds.

But by the end of 2018 I had found my inner peace

I had found my own miracle

and seeing His Holiness that day,

seeing the 1000s of people on pilgrimage praying for peace

praying for forgiveness

praying for happiness

I knew what my wish was

It was helping others to find their sparkle, their joy in life 💖🥰

How funny, I'm even crying writing today's message

Such strong emotions coming up, the sadness of Nat pre finding hope and happiness

The girl who thought that life might be stuck in the walls of her apartment because what can you really do as a blind person (when you know the paralympics are out of the question coz you're the most unsporty person ever 😅)

If any of my story is ringing true for you today

If you're feeling called to take the next step in your journey so that you can create the foundation of happy life, then you are going to love today's gift!

I've never had a deal this super epic before 🙂🙂💃🕺

For day 3 of Calm-mas 🎄🎁 we are still on the Calm Mind Foundation and this time we're looking at how our stress narrative affects our food choices and our weight.

The more I've been living with ongoing health challenges I've noticed that it's harder to lose weight.

I'd still go to the gym, do yoga, do my beach walks, I was even counting calories - but the weight wouldn't budge.

So I decided to look deeper and see what's actually happening in our body.

What slows down our metabolism - besides ageing...

Why eating healthy isn't enough ...

I was really surprised that the answer was stress - but not the old narrative of stress, the deeper narrative of how our body can be in a perpetual stress cycle just from simple every day thoughts or the stress signals our pain or ongoing health issues send to our brain.

It's eye opening and I reveal all about it in this Masterclass PLUS support you with incredible bonuses to last you all year long.
2026 is the time to take back control of your eating habits

Wow what an experience 🤩
It’s a long video but shares every detail of my experience meeting HH the Dalai Lama back in 2018 🥰
So interesting to see my eye differences hey? I was legally blind in the left eye then and no glasses prescription could help, and it was a year after the shingles virus attacked my eye
Little did I know I was burning off negative karma during the pilgrimage and all the work I did in the 3 month personal retreat … all led to the miracle that got my sight back
🤯😬
Same girl inside but different hey? 🥰🥰

Self-healing for the soul

Nat is your Go-to Zen Chick. She is passionate about supporting people to self-heal through meditation, mindfulness and wellbeing practices.

Nat has an inspiring story of resilience, in August 2015 the doctors told her that she would be blind by Christmas. That heart-wrenching moment changed Nat’s life, she knew there had to be another way to help herself; it was time to look within. Nat’s soul searching worked, on that Christmas morning she woke up and she still had some sight! Though it wasn’t enough to allow her to get about safely without a blind-cane and the limited sight meant that Nat had to re-consider her career.

She was determined to continue on this path of meditation, mindfulness and energy work, to calm her nervous system and allow her body to restore itself.

Fast forward to the present day, and Nat is living her dream life in a cute beachside town, with most of her sight restored! After successful eye surgery in 2019, she left her life in the city to pursue a simpler one, where she can teach the gifts meditation and chakras by the beach.
