I was also feeling unfulfilled and my life was lacking the balance and stability I was craving. I knew I wanted more out of life and was meant for more. My deep desire to do something that aligned with my values and to pursue my dreams lead me to Australia to study Naturopathy.

This was the wake-up call that I needed!

So I wasn’t Super Woman after all, with the ability to push my body to its limits without any effect!!

It made me realise how little I actually knew about being truly healthy and the effects that my somewhat of a ‘rock-star’ lifestyle actually had on my body.

It’s not easy to make big changes in life, especially when it completely changes the direction you’ve been going and removes you from a life that provided lots of fun, ease, and incredible memories.

YOGA = UNION
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Let’s use our practice to not only bring more union in our own body, mind & soul but unity with each and every human and other being on this planet.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We all share this beautiful planet and it’s resources. We are all equals. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
YOGA = BLISS, JOY, PEACE, CONNECTION & STRENGTH ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I am grateful everyday for the practice of yoga. Yoga has been a part of my life since I was 22 and it always feels like coming home.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
During confinement I finally had the time to bring back an almost daily yoga practice. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It brought me back to myself, to my essence, to my truth.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It was my sanity during lockdown and my practice once again was strengthened.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I was reminded at how big a place yoga plays in my life, in my heart and in being able to connect with my true self and the world around me.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
After things started going back to normal these past few weeks, and I got crazy busy with work, with life and with seeing friends, I stopped making time for my regular yoga practice. I felt it mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually. I felt the void in my life. I’d lost the connection to what really matters & to simplicity. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And this week I came back to my practice, my gratitude and my joy. My mental & emotional health improved, my physical body feels much more balanced & aligned. I feel happy & positive again which I’d lost a little with the re-calibration of this ‘new normal’ & and all these powerful eclipses and other astro changes happening. Not going to lie ... I had a few emotional melt downs these past 2 weeks. 😩
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Anyone else been feeling it?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Serious intense energies in the world!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But thank you YOGA for bringing me back to myself, to gratitude and to love. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
N A M A S T E 🙏

I practice nutrition within the context of Nauropathic Medicine. (see my last post) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In this nutritional therapy we recognise that:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🍋 Individuals have a unique interaction with nutrients.
🍋 Food selection, preparation & eating is a healing art & medicine in itself.
🍋 Whole foods are greater than the sum of their parts, meaning we promote foods in their whole state as nature intended to gain the healing & nutritional benefits.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As Hippocrates said best - 🍏 “Let Food be Thy Medicine and Medicine be Thy Food" ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The practice of Naturopathic Nutrition includes advice on: 🍏Individually assessed dietary therapy. 🍏 Optimal food preparation. 🍏 Traditional approaches to detoxification. 🍏Lifestyle recommendations to optimise dietary therapy. 🍏Education + info that empowers & encourages each individual to achieve optimal health & well-being.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As a Naturopathic Practitioner, I will also advise if herbs or nutraceutical supplements are required to help the body heal along with the nutrition.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Lab tests are a great tool to determine what’s actually going on in the body.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Food intolerance tests for example can help identify which foods are causing inflammation in the body & which foods need to be removed in the diet until gut repair has been done.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Have you ever wondered if some of the foods you’re eating (even the healthy ones) are causing inflammation in your body & making you feel less than average?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As a new customer, the Lab I work with is giving me a discount on their most comprehensive Premium Food Intolerance Test - testing 208 foods until end July! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Normally 180€ - now only 140€ for limited time only!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Special Promotional Packs available now until end July!
Food Intolerance Test + Consultations in $ or € ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
OFFERS end 31st JULY
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

What is Naturopathy? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ F

#mentalhealthawarenessweek
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Mental health should be a focus everyday of every year. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Unfortunately the ‘systems’ don’t do enough to support mental health.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As individuals too, we focus more on our physical health, looking good & feeling good in our body’s.
But how do we look after our mental health? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Our minds are part of our body.
The modern medical system is only just starting to recognise this.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We cannot have physical health without mental or emotional health & vice versa.
They’re directly linked to each other.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Especially now with this global pandemic, mental health needs to be even more of a focus. Looking after our own mental health & that of those around us is essential.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’ve suffered 2nd hand A LOT due to mental health issues in my close family. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As a Naturopathic Nutritionist, people often think we help the physical body but not the mental body.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
That we focus on nutrition & exercise & treatments for physical health. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As a Naturopath & Lifestyle Coach, the mental & emotional health of my clients is just as important. I know their physical health will only improve if their mental & emotional health aren’t suffering. I address ALL of it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Our body is one. It’s all parts combined.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What you eat & how you move also directly impacts your mental health.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A deficiency in nutrients can lead to anxiety, depression & other mental illnesses.
Toxicity in the body & heavy metals can also do the same.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Nutrition, Exercise & Healthy Lifestyle practices such as Yoga, breathwork & meditation are at the forefront of healing mental illness along with therapy.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As I’ve been talking about in my 7-Day Quit Sugar Challenge this week - SUGAR has a big role to play in stress hormone dis regulation, neurotransmitters & mood regulation. Consuming too much can lead to anxiety & depression. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Eat more of these to help boost your mood:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✔️ Omega 3’s (fatty fish, hemp seeds, chia, etc)
✔️ Cacao (RAW) ✔️ Fermented Foods
✔️ Bananas
✔️ Oats
✔️ Berries
✔️ Nuts + Seeds
✔️ Beans & Lentils
✔️ Coffee (1 cup/day)
✔️ Green Leafy Veggies
