✨ CLIENT TESTIMONIAL ✨

"I cannot recommend Renee highly enough! After decades of battling endometriosis, multiple surgeries, miscarriages, severe anxiety, and years of heavy doses of painkillers, I had lost hope.

Within just two days of starting Renee’s protocol, my life completely changed, I was finally sleeping through the night, waking up energised, my anxiety dropped by 90%, and my chronic bloating and inflammation reduced dramatically.

I also discovered histamines were a huge trigger for me, and with Renee’s guidance my constant sneezing, watery eyes, and morning congestion disappeared. My moods are now balanced, I’ve lost weight, and for the first time in years, I feel amazing.

Renee is caring, compassionate, and incredibly knowledgeable. She listens, explains everything, and creates a plan that actually works. If you want to get to the root cause instead of masking symptoms, go see Renee, she has given me my life back!"

- S. Taylor

Why MTHFR Matters for Fertility & What You Need to Know.

Methylation is VITAL for reproductive health: it helps produce healthy eggs and s***m, balance hormones, and support a healthy pregnancy.

If you have an MTHFR gene variant, your body may:
🤰Struggle to activate folate effectively.
🤰Build up homocysteine, affecting circulation and implantation.
🤰Need extra nutritional support for a healthy conception.

Targeted B vitamins, detox support, and a personalised preconception plan can make a big difference, especially if you have experienced multiple miscarriages.

If you’re trying to conceive or planning a pregnancy, testing your MTHFR status can help optimise your fertility naturally.

This week's Oracle Herbal Card is 🌿 ELDER 🌿
~ Wisdom ~

ORACLE MEANING: Rising from the underworld, release, letting go, major transformation, higher wisdom, new perceptions, awakening to the truth.

GUIDANCE: Elder signals the end of a phase in life, as well as the beginning of a major cycle. Elder reminds us of the symbolic death that visits us often as we progress through our physical and metaphysical growth. Elder reminds us of the blooming we experience when we simply allow our old self to decompose. In giving new life, the old one needs to be torn apart and allowed to die. Don't resist it. Elder is a wise guardian, assisting us as we step through the doorways of darkness. Allow yourself to be consumed by her mighty presence, as the dark mother protects our spirit as it goes through the cycles of transformation.

ASTROLOGICAL RULING: Jupiter, Pluto.

This tree is a symbol of sorrow, death and deep magic. It has been used since ancient times as a blood cleanser, anti-viral, anti-inflammatory, used for the kidneys, liver and digestive system. It is also used as a respiratory aid to prevent or recover from colds and flu.

Astrologically, since Elder encompasses the piercing duality of life and death, along with supernatural properties, it falls under the general rulership of Pluto. To properly reap its medicine requires wisdom. It has a strong protective action on the immune system.

What is Methylation & Why Does it Matter?

Methylation is a vital process happening in every single cell of your body, billions of times per second.

Methylation supports:
🌻Energy production (your cells’ “battery life”)
🌻Detoxification (clearing toxins and hormones)
🌻Hormone balance (especially estrogen and stress hormones)
🌻Mood support (producing serotonin, dopamine, and melatonin)
🌻DNA repair (keeping cells healthy long-term)

If methylation slows down, you may experience:
☑ Fatigue or low energy
☑ Poor stress tolerance
☑ Hormonal imbalances
☑ Mood changes or anxiety
☑ Difficulty detoxifying

Methylation is the foundation of your wellbeing. Want to know if methylation pathway needs support?

Have you heard of MTHFR?

Here’s the Truth.

❌ Myth:
“MTHFR is a disease and there’s nothing I can do about it.”

✅ Truth:
MTHFR is a gene variation, not a disease.

It affects how your body activates folate (vitamin B9).

This impacts methylation, which supports energy, mood, and detoxification.

With the right support, most people thrive.

Your genes are not your destiny. Understanding MTHFR empowers you to support your health naturally.

5 Signs Your Body Is Asking for Naturopathic Support

Your body is always talking to you: sometimes with whispers, sometimes with shouts.

Here are 5 signs it might be asking for deeper, Naturopathic support:

1️⃣ You’re always tired, even after sleep: Your energy feels flat no matter how early you go to bed.
2️⃣ Your digestion is unpredictable: Bloating, discomfort, or “mystery” gut symptoms are your norm.
3️⃣ Your moods are up and down: Irritable one day, flat the next, it feels hard to find emotional balance.
4️⃣ You feel ‘wired but tired’: Your mind is racing, but your body is exhausted, hello, nervous system overload.
5️⃣ You’ve tried everything, but nothing sticks: Supplements, diets, and tips from Dr. Google give temporary results, but the real issue keeps returning.

Your body is asking for more than a quick fix, it’s asking to be understood.

That’s where holistic care comes in: I look at the whole picture, uncover the root cause, and create a plan that actually supports long-term wellbeing.

If this resonates, I’d love to help you reconnect with your health from the inside out.

This week's Oracle Herbal Card is 🌿 SAGE 🌿
~ Blessing ~

ORACLE MEANING: Blessing, purification, invocation, sacred gift, spiritual cleansing, reassembling emotional body, mystical sight.

ASTROLOGICAL RULING: Moon, Jupiter.

The genus name "Salvia" comes from Latin "salvare", meaning "to save" - an apt name for this powerful and protective herb. Sage has been used for thousands of years for inner and outer purification, and is one of the primary herbs for "smudging". Smudging is a sacred ritual where smoke is "brushed" along the body with hands, feathers or ritual objects, to bless, purify, and invoke ancestral spirits.

Like herbs ruled by the Moon, Sage is a vibrationally powerful plant that deeply influences the electromagnetic field. The moon houses our intuition and emotions, and Lunar herbs greatly affect the tides of our subconscious mind, our emotions and psyche.

GUIDANCE: Sage, like the Moon card in the tarot, is the great portal to the river of life. The silver light of Sage grants us the power of insight while we navigate the darkest hours. The Lunar powers of Sage remind us to look inward to receive visionary insight from Spirit. Surrender, don't stand in your own way. Allow the silvery white light of Sage to shatter illusions as you undergo a great awakening.

Flower Essences: Gentle Yet Powerful Support for Emotional Healing

Flower Essences may look delicate, but their impact runs deep.

Unlike herbal medicines that can work predominantly on the physical body, flower essences specifically support the emotional and energetic layers of health. They help shift old patterns, soften internal resistance, and bring clarity to what we’re truly feeling.

They don’t suppress...they reveal.
They don’t force...they support.

Each remedy works with a specific emotional state:
🌼 Rescue Remedy for acute shock or panic
🌿 Mimulus for everyday fears
💛 Larch for confidence and self-belief
💧 Willow for resentment and emotional rigidity

They’re safe, subtle, and suitable for all ages, including during pregnancy, postpartum, and for children.

I often include flower essences in prescriptions when clients are feeling emotionally stuck, scattered, or overwhelmed. They bring a sense of lightness and alignment that helps other treatments work more effectively.

Healing is more than physical.

Flower Essences help you shift from the inside out.

Are you in need of some gentle but powerful emotional healing? Visit www.reneewest.com.au or email info@reneewest.com.au to book your Flower Essence Appointment.

HEALING THE INVISIBLE LAYER

We can eat the right foods, take the best supplements, do all the "right" things… and still feel stuck in a symptom cycle.

That’s when we need to ask:
What’s happening emotionally, spiritually, or energetically?

Metaphysical symptoms often point to deeper layers:

Liver issues = anger, frustration, suppression
Gut issues = worry, control, fear of letting go
Reproductive symptoms = creativity, self-worth, boundaries

This doesn’t mean it’s “all in your head”, it means your body is working with you, not against you.

Healing includes acknowledging the unseen. And when we include that layer, transformation is possible.
