Hi Friend,
We are about to enter the most joyful, social, sparkly sparkling…
and the most over-the-top, over-doing, over-consuming time of the year.
The magical marathon of modern Christmas.
And let's be honest, a lot for the body to hold.
✨ Before we dive into December… think back to last Christmas:
What actually felt good - for body, mind and energy?
What was too much?
What would you love more of this year?
What would you happily not or even never repeat?
And really ask yourself:
How much energy will you need to do all of this in December?
Because the truth is… even the “most wonderful time of the year” can come with:
• cancelled plans or travel
• family or workplace tension
• unexpected expenses
• illness + burnout
• returning body aches
• emotional overwhelm
• the pressure to “be on” and at every event
And what do most of us do when we hit the “I have nothing left in the tank” moment?
We numb, push, snap, shut down, and run on adrenaline and cortisol.
Not our fault - it’s just survival mode.
But there is another way: a calm body.
✨ Calm is something the body remembers...
A calm body can create a completely different trajectory:
✔ micro-moments of peace that ripple outward into experiences
✔ interrupt overwhelm before it spikes
✔ regulate emotions instead of imploding or exploding
✔ restore clarity + focus (fast!)
✔ create safety + steadiness in relationships
✔ improve digestion, sleep, and mood
✔ build resilience and expansion for both joy and challenge
✔ stay grounded + focused when life gets loud + chaotic
Calm isn't something we can think our way into, calm is a state that the body remembers.
And your body has innate and highly intelligent shortcuts to calm: acupressure points are like magic buttons that calm the body in vey unique ways.
I have been working on a guide (so damn excited!!) to help you to shortcut OUT OF our most habitual high-stress states INTO CALM. Keep an eye on your inbox this week for the Calm Body Kit - a great resource for the festive season.
✨ A Homebody member shared something this week that made me smile
“I’m entering festive season feeling so far away from my neglected summer bod lol x I joined (Homebody) feeling off, sluggish, disconnected, and honestly avoiding my body.
Now I’m aware, I’ve got space, my back is straighter (bye tech neck) I feel centred and I HAVE ABS. I booked a photoshoot for spring because obviously with homebody I'll be in my zen but sizzling spring babe era.”

✨ Sunday Pocket of Peace
Place your right hand on your chest and left on your belly.
Breathe slowly for 4, exhale slowly for 4 x times, and then ask yourself:
“What does my body need to feel calm this December?”
Not perfect.
Not productive.
Just calm.
Your body will answer when you listen.
