If you’re feeling stuck in cycles of anxiety, restless nights, or digestive discomfort, it’s not a sign to push harder... it’s your body’s way of asking for alignment.

Imagine waking up feeling calm, clear, and truly connected to your body’s wisdom. What if the key to unlocking that calm was just one conversation away?

✨ I’m offering a free 15-minute discovery session to help you uncover what’s standing between you and the peace you crave.

It’s time to rewrite the story your body is telling. Let’s start with one step.

Stress is a part of everyday life, it is necessary to give us the drive we need to get things done.

However, when it comes to chronic stress, this is something that we have come all to familiar with as a part of a normal way of being.

Stress is defined as a strain or overexertion on our bodies, and our minds.

It is associated with feelings and actions we all know too well, the overwhelm, sleepless nights, excessive thinking, emotional releasing, outbursts, anger, frustration, helplessness, constant worry, nausea, panic and uncontrollable crying.

While these are all outward expressions of stress, it is also relevant to address the internalisations of it as well, for those whom tend to keep the feelings bottled up inside and perhaps not to show a physical exertion, and yet are just as effected by the underlying health issues this can have on the mind and body.

Stress has a huge impact on our physical and emotional body. It effects our gut flora and in turn therefore effects our mental well-being.

The microbiota in our guts are directly linked to our mental and emotional health. As our body breaks down the gut microbiome, it releases by products called metabolites. These metabolites, along with the microbiota, communicate with the brain via the vagus nerve.

When we have a healthy selection of microbiota in our guts then we can send healthy and harmonious messages to our brain.

However, if our gut flora has more of imbalance and therefore is dominated by a higher selection of dysbiotic flora, it can send stress signals to the brain and lead to emotional and mood disorders such as anxiety, stress and depression.

Which in turn leads to more dysbiotic gut flora, and the cycle continues.

If your gut health is compromised then your gut is leaking.

If your gut is leaking then your physical health is compromised.

All of this effects your emotional and mental state of being.

How healthy is your gut?

How Detoxing Effects Your Psyche...

Is a foggy mind something that you experience often?

How about poor judgement, low concentration, cloudy thoughts, short attention span or a jumbled mind?

All of these symptoms are evidence that you may have an overload of toxins in your mind.

This can result from unprocessed trauma, an imbalance of the right microbiome in your gut, hormonal imbalance or severe stress.

All of which can be supported through giving your body a nourishing and cleansing detox, balancing the hormones and gut, and processing the unconscious disturbances deep in your psyche.

When we do the deep inner work, as in processing emotional states of being that may be buried deep in our subconscious mind, having a lighter and cleaner body can support you through much more efficiently.

And thus, once having a clean and clear body and mind, you will naturally feel more drawn to process all that has been locked away in your subconscious to open you up to a greater capacity to live a more fulfilled and abundant life.

Leaky gut is a term that is thrown around a lot in Naturopathic Medicine as it is an easy way to describe how the health of your gut lining is effecting your overall health.

So what is leaky gut? Leaky occurs when your gut lining becomes too permeable, or in other words, the walls of your intestinal lining are inflamed and weakened.

When this occurs, the microscopic particles from your food are able to leak out from beyond the insides of your gut walls and into your blood stream before they have been fully digested.

The gut lining is basically just a barrier between the gut bacteria and what you eat. It's a single layer of intestinal cells (enterocytes) that are chained together by tight junctions. These are the gate keepers of the gut, they get to decide which molecules and food particles get to enter the body and which ones cannot.

Because our body can only utilise nutrients that are broken down to a tiny single molecule, any particle larger than this is denied entry across the gut barrier. This is because it is generally a bacteria, a toxin or a food particle that is too large for us to use.

When this barrier becomes leaky, a flood of bad molecules can pass through the gut lining and into our bodies. These substances are identified as foreign by both our gut's immune system and our body's immune system and will therefore attack these particles thus putting added pressure on your overall health.

This then creates inflammation in the gut and can also trigger an auto-immune response.

Suspect your gut might be leaking? There are signs, symptoms and tests that can be done to know for sure.

Emotional and mental stress changes your gut flora -

The impact of the excess stress hormones in your body dysregulates motility in your gut lining which in turn alters the gut microbiota composition.

This then decreases your gut barrier integrity, a protective epithelial lining, which leave the gut susceptible to invasive pathogenic bacteria and parasites.

Visceral hypersensitivity will also increase under this pressure thus resulting in higher levels of pain in your internal organs such as cramping, stomach aches and other internal sensitivities.

Under these conditions, your gut will continue to multiply the wrong kind of gut microbiota that are thriving in an unhealthy environment, as your gut continues to cater the perfect conditions for them to thrive.

Overall, this will all lead to a case of gut dysbiosis that will in turn increases the pro inflammatory cytokins which further releases more stress hormones, and again, the cycle continues.

Understanding the composition of your gut flora is essential for beginning your healing journey. Different microbiota will thrive in a variety of different environmental and dietary conditions, and sometimes its not just as easy as taking a dose of antibiotics and/or probiotics to restore your GIT back to health long term.
