• When ‘Looking Healthy’ Isn’t the Same as Being Healthy•

The way a body looks is not a reliable indicator of health. And honestly, it’s exhausting that we’re still pretending it is. We’ve been taught to equate leanness, tone and “discipline” with wellness, yet some of the most unwell people I see look fit and thriving on the outside while their hormones, digestion and nervous system are under constant strain.

At the same time, bodies that don’t fit the wellness aesthetic are quietly assumed to be unhealthy, unmotivated or doing something wrong, despite often functioning far better internally.

This is your reminder to stop comparing your body to someone else’s highlight reel.

Health is not one-size-fits-all. Your body has its own history, biology, stress load and needs, and it doesn’t exist to keep up with anyone else’s routine.

Wellness has become something to perform. A look to maintain. A lifestyle to sell. But real health isn’t an aesthetic…
It’s stable energy, a regulated nervous system, digestion that works, a menstrual cycle that arrives without fear, sleep that actually restores you, and a body that feels safe enough to communicate honestly.

A healthy body is not a trend.
It’s a relationship built through listening, nourishment and trust.
And most of the real work happens where no one else is watching!

Think of our bodies like orchids.
There are thousands of orchid varieties. Some are delicate and light, others are fuller with thicker stems, broader leaves and heavier blooms. They all look different not because one is better but because each one evolved to thrive in different conditions.

Some orchids need constant warmth and humidity. Others are built to survive cooler air, less water or long dry spells. Their shape, size and structure reflect what they have adapted to, not how healthy they are.

Our bodies work the same way.
A smaller or leaner body is not automatically healthier.
A larger or fuller body is not a sign that something has gone wrong.
They are different expressions of adaptation, protection and resilience.
This is why comparison is so misleading… You are comparing your orchid to someone else’s without knowing the environment it grew in.

Health is not about forcing every body to look the same. It is about understanding what your body needs to feel safe, supported and able to bloom.
You do not need a different body, you need the right conditions for yours!! 🌸

Postpartum is one of the most intense physiological transitions a woman will ever experience, yet so many women are expected to cope with very little support.

From rapid hormone shifts, nutrient depletion, nervous system overload and the ongoing demands of motherhood, it’s no wonder so many women feel exhausted, anxious, flat or unlike themselves after birth.

This isn’t weakness. It’s biology asking for care.

Postpartum isn’t a bounce-back season. It’s a rebuild season. And mothers deserve support that nourishes their bodies, hormones and nervous systems long after the early weeks.

If you’re in this season and something feels off, know that support exists 💗

“Unexplained” hair loss is rarely without a reason…

From a Naturopathic lens, hair is a reflection of what’s happening internally. When the body is under stress or running low on key nutrients, hair is often one of the first places we notice it.

Common underlying contributors I see in clinic include:
• Low iron or ferritin
• Thyroid imbalance
• Blood sugar dysregulation
• Chronic stress and elevated cortisol
• Post-pill or postpartum hormone shifts
• Gut dysfunction affecting nutrient absorption
• Inflammatory or autoimmune processes

Hair loss isn’t just a cosmetic concern. It’s information. Your body is asking for deeper support, not a quick fix.

If your labs are “normal” but something still feels off, this is where looking at the full picture matters. With the right testing, nourishment and nervous system support, we can address the root causes and create an environment where hair can regrow and thrive 💆🏻‍♀️

It’s certainly heating up in Melbourne!! And while soaking up the sunshine can feel amazing, what you put on your skin matters just as much as sun protection itself ☀️
As a Naturopath, I always recommend choosing a low-tox, reef-safe sunscreen. Many conventional sunscreens contain chemical UV filters that can be absorbed through the skin, potentially adding to hormonal load and triggering irritation. Low-tox mineral sunscreens (using zinc oxide or titanium dioxide) sit on top of the skin, reflecting UV rays rather than being absorbed into the body.
These formulas are also far gentler on the skin, making them a great choice for those prone to acne, eczema, rosacea or sensitive skin, and they’re generally safe for children and babies. Plus, choosing reef-safe options helps protect our oceans and marine life.

It’s a simple swap that supports your skin, hormones, immune system and the environment all at once.

When the Gut Is “Cold,” Digestion Slows 🥶

In Naturopathy we often talk about digestion as a warm process. Your gut needs adequate warmth and circulation to break down food efficiently, absorb nutrients and keep things moving smoothly.
When the gut is “cold,” digestion can become sluggish. This may show up as bloating, gas, heaviness after meals, constipation, loose stools, food sensitivities or feeling tired after eating. A cold digestive system struggles to fully extract nutrients, which can quietly impact our energy, hormones, immunity and skin.

Warming and gently spicy foods help to “wake up” the digestive system. Ingredients like ginger, cinnamon, turmeric, chilli and black pepper stimulate digestive enzymes, improve circulation to the gut and support stomach acid production. This creates a more favourable environment for proper digestion and absorption.

Warming the gut isn’t about eating hot or spicy foods all day. It’s about supporting digestive FIRE. Choosing cooked meals over cold ones, adding warming spices, sipping warm drinks and being mindful of excessive iced beverages or raw foods when digestion feels weak.

If you often feel bloated, cold, sluggish or heavy after meals, your gut may simply need more warmth and support. Nourishing digestion is foundational… when the gut is warm and functioning well, the whole body benefits!

Painful periods are often dismissed as “normal”, but they’re one of the body’s clearest signals that something needs support.

If period pain is showing up month after month, it’s rarely random. Inflammation, hormone imbalance, gut health, stress, and under-fueling all play a role, and addressing these foundations before your period starts is where real change happens.

A pain-free period isn’t about pushing through, relying on pain relief, or waiting for it to pass. It’s about supporting the body across the entire cycle so it feels safe, nourished, and regulated enough to menstruate with ease.

If period pain affects your energy, work, mood, or quality of life, it’s worth looking deeper. With the right support, your cycle can become predictable, manageable, and something you trust, not dread!

The holidays don’t require perfection. You don’t need to “fall off the rails” or wait until January to care for your body.
Health is built from patterns, not single meals, and it’s so important to remember ENJOYMENT is part of nourishment too.

This season is about balance:
✨ enjoying festive and traditional foods
✨ supporting your digestion
✨ returning gently to your normal rhythm

No guilt. No restriction. Just simple nutrition basics that keep you feeling well and allow you to enjoy the moment with your loved ones.
