This kind of tired isn’t just “mum tired”. ⁠
⁠
Yes, motherhood is exhausting, but ongoing, deep fatigue isn’t something you have to just push through. ⁠
⁠
When tiredness feels constant, heavy, or out of proportion, it can sometimes be a sign your thyroid needs a closer look.⁠
⁠
In clinic I often see people reassured with “normal” results after only one marker is tested, but thyroid health is more complex than that. ⁠
⁠
Looking at a full thyroid panel can give a much clearer picture of how your thyroid is actually functioning.⁠
⁠
That’s why we recommend asking your practitioner about:⁠
〜 TSH⁠
〜 Free T3⁠
〜 Free T4⁠
〜 Reverse T3⁠
〜 Thyroid antibodies⁠
⁠
Understanding your results puts you back in the driver’s seat, and helps guide more personalised support.⁠
⁠
Download my free Thyroid Pathology Guide to learn what these markers mean and what to ask for.⁠

Comment CHEAT SHEET and I’ll send it through 🤍

Big pharma watching you prioritise sleep, regular meals, movement, and stress support… 👀

If you’re feeling guilty about how you ate over the holidays, read this.⁠
A few indulgent days (or weeks) don’t undo your health, your habits, or all the care you’ve already given your body. You don’t need a full reset, a detox, or a list of new rules. ⁠
⁠
You just need time and gentle support to settle back in and reintegrate your routine. ⁠
⁠
I see this every year, people feeling anxious, guilty, and pressured to make big life changes straight after the holiday season. ⁠
⁠
But rushing into extremes usually creates more stress, not better health.⁠
Let your body recover.⁠
⁠
Ease back into routine with habits that work and feel manageable. ⁠
⁠
Focus on nourishment, not punishment.⁠
⁠
Your nervous system, digestion, and hormones will thank you for it.⁠
⁠
Health isn’t built in a week, and it isn’t lost in one either.⁠

A gentle reminder as the year begins…🤍⁠
⁠
You don’t need a new version of yourself.⁠
⁠
You don’t need to start over.⁠
⁠
And you definitely don’t need to overhaul your life.⁠
⁠
Instead, take a moment to reflect on what actually worked for you last year. The habits that felt supportive, realistic, and sustainable, and start there. ⁠
⁠
Maybe it's...⁠
〰️Regular meals.⁠
〰️More fibre.⁠
〰️Morning sunlight.⁠
〰️Hydration.⁠
〰️Daily movement.⁠
〰️Less overwhelm.⁠
⁠
These small, steady habits are what create real change over time. Not intensity. Not perfection. Just consistency.⁠
⁠
Choose one habit that already feels familiar and reintroduce it this week.⁠

At this time of year, when your energy feels pulled in every direction, protecting your energy is essential.

You don’t have to say yes to everything.
You don’t have to be endlessly available.
You don’t have to push through when your body is asking for rest.

Honour what you have capacity for.
Protect the energy you do have.

Move slower, choose intentionally, and let your nervous system breathe 🫶🏼

Podcasts I've been enjoying listening to lately...

I’ve always loved podcasts, there’s something so nourishing about instantly feeling inspired, grounded, entertained or understood.

Whether it’s on a walk, driving between appointments, cooking dinner or winding down at night, podcasts have become one of my favourite ways to learn, laugh and feel connected.

〜The Imperfects – for honest conversations and real-life wisdom
〜 Good Hang with Amie Collier – light, fun, and beautifully human
〜 Medium at Large (David the Medium) – for all things intuitive + spiritual
〜 Menopause & Cancer with Dani Binnington – empowering, evidence-informed conversations for women’s health

If you’re looking for something new to tune into this summer, these are well worth adding to your playlist.

What are you listening to at the moment? I’d love to hear your recs 🤍

This is why I do what I do! These results are truly incredible...

I’ve been working with this beautiful client (shared with permission) to support her Hashimoto’s symptoms, gut health, inflammation, nervous system, and relationship with her body.

She didn’t get here through restriction, punishment, or pushing harder…

She got here through consistency, nourishment, emotional safety, and personalised support.

〜 By reducing inflammatory triggers
〜 Repairing her gut microbiome
〜 Supporting her thyroid and nervous system
〜 Creating a healthier environment
〜 Introducing gentle movement
〜 And learning to trust her body again

The shifts have been incredible.
This is what happens when you work with the body, not against it.

If you want to put your thyroid health first in 2026, now is the time, January appointments are already filling fast.

Book your consultation via the link in bio or send a DM if you’d like to chat about whether this approach is right for you 🤍

As we begin to wrap up the year, a little reminder that I will be taking a restorative break over Christmas and New Year.⁠
⁠
〜 Last day of consults: Friday 20th December⁠
〜 Clinic closed: 21st December – 13th January⁠
〜 Reopening: Tuesday 14th January⁠
⁠
If you’re needing a December appointment, or a refill on your herbal or nutrient prescriptions to carry you through the holiday period, please book in early... there are only a handful of December appointments left and I want to make sure you’re fully supported 🫶🏼⁠

Date & cashew ice cream bars.

Gluten free. Dairy free. Crap free. And honestly, ridiculously delicious.

If you love ice cream but don’t love all the added junk that comes with store-bought versions (and don’t have a Ninja Creami because… who needs another kitchen gadget 🙋‍♀️), this one’s for you.

You'll need:
300g of raw cashews
200g of pitted fresh Medjool dates
1 cup of light coconut milk
1 cup of water
Pinch of salt
1 tsp of vanilla extract
200g of dark chocolate

Method:
1️⃣ Soak cashews in filtered water for 4+ hours.
2️⃣ Drain and blend with dates, coconut milk, water, salt & vanilla until smooth and creamy.
3️⃣ Line a 20x20cm baking tray with baking paper and spread the mixture evenly.
4️⃣ Freeze overnight (or at least until firm).
5️⃣ Melt half the chocolate and pour over the top. Freeze again for 1 hour.
6️⃣ Flip the slab, melt and pour the remaining chocolate over the other side. Freeze again.
7️⃣ Slice into 16–20 bars and store in an airtight, freezer-safe container.

Tip: Heat your knife when cutting to prevent splitting the chocolate. Or consider slicing the ice cream first and individually sipping in chocolate.

Happy cooking and tag me in your creations 🫶🏼

My Journey Into Natural Health

Hi & welcome.

I’m Melissa, degree qualified Naturopath & owner of Elixir Naturopathy. At 27 I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer and underwent a total thyroidectomy leaving me in a hypothyroid state.

I struggled with anxiety and depression for years prior to my diagnosis only to be told that it was just part of growing up and without anyone considering the underlying cause.

I realised that there wasn't much information out there for those dealing with a thyroid disorder, so embarked on my own journey to learn as much as I possibly could about how I could turn my health around. What I learnt, along with my health science degree helped me to get my health back.
