In Traditional Chinese Medicine, spring is the season of the liver and gallbladder. These organs are connected not only to digestion and detoxification, but to clarity, movement, creativity, and emotional flow. 🌀🌸

When the Liver energy is balanced, we feel:
✨ Clear in the mind
✨ Light in the body
✨ Emotionally flexible
✨ Motivated, decisive, and steady
But when that energy is stuck or overburdened, we might experience:
• Bloating or digestive tension
• Irritability, frustration, anger or emotional overwhelm
• Waking between 1–3am
• Hormonal imbalances
• Weight gain that won’t budge
• Raised cholesterol or elevated liver enzymes
• Tenderness under the rib cage or hardened abdominal fat
• Skin breakouts, flares or dullness
• Sensitivity to smells (perfume isle) or alcohol
• Headaches
• Fatigue, brain fog, or heaviness
• Cravings, especially for sugar or stimulants
• Tightness in the body - especially around the neck, jaw, or shoulders
• Changes in stool - pale, clay-coloured, floating, or greasy stools can signal poor bile flow and sluggish liver/gallbladder function

These are all messages letting you know your liver may need support. 💞

And spring time is a great time to do this. 🍃
✨ Begin simply - with foods, rituals, and herbs that support and nourish the Liver:
🥬 Bitter green leaves – rocket, dandelion, mustard leaf
🍵 Herbs – St Mary’s thistle, schisandra, globe artichoke, nettle, rosemary
🌱 Sour flavours – lemon, apple cider vinegar, fermented foods
🥦 Brassicas – broccoli, kale, cauliflower, cabbage
🧘‍♀️ Movement, massage, breath, sunlight and space – to support the free flow of Qi (life force energy)

You don’t need to do it all at once. Just pick a couple that are achievable and start there. And you don’t need to do it alone. If you’d like individualised, therapeutic support ~ I’d love to guide you. I love supporting liver and digestive health and there are some amazing supplements we can utilise! 💚 (and even more important for people with known issues or post gallbladder removal).

📩 Book in via the link in bio or send me a message. Let’s support your body to release what it no longer needs and welcome in a new season of flow. 🌷😊

🌸🌱 A flower affirmation:
I allow myself to soften and trust the light to guide me. It’s okay to climb in my own time, rebuilding boundaries that protect my energy. I honour my intuition and speak clearly from within. Even when the ground shifts beneath me, I choose to thrive ~ gently, wisely and with grace. 💫🌱

🌿📣 Just because it’s common… doesn’t mean it’s normal.
Your body is always communicating with you ~ and it’s time we start listening. 💛 If we don’t, the small issues can turn into bigger ones... and our future selves will wish we had listened sooner. 💞

Instead of reaching for antacids, fibre supplements with artificial sweeteners, synthetic laxatives made with petrochemicals like PEG 3350 (yep 🥴), the pill to “manage” periods or acne, sleeping tablets, poor-quality synthetic supplements, or steroid creams…

✨ Please know this: naturopathy truly shines when it comes to supporting the root cause of:
🔥 Reflux + heartburn
💩 Bloating + IBS symptoms
🩸 Heavy, irregular or absent periods
🛌 Insomnia + low energy
😥 Anxiety + low moods
🧴 Skin issues (acne, rashes, eczema)
💅 Thinning hair, brittle nails or eyebrow loss

These symptoms aren’t random, and they’re definitely not “just in your head” or something to keep “monitoring” for years, until bad enough to need medication. They’re signs your body is out of balance ~ and it’s asking to be restored, not suppressed.

🌱 Naturopathy gently uncovers the root causes of issues and aims to resolve these for the individual, not just mask or suppress them. You deserve to feel well, whole, and truly supported. We all do! 🌷✨

When you should come and see me (a naturopath)… 🥰

❤️ When you’ve been trying to figure it out on your own, but nothing’s really shifting.
🧡 When you know something’s not quite right, even if your blood tests are “normal.”
💛 When you’re feeling dismissed, confused, stuck, or just not seen and supported.
💚 When you’re dealing with something ongoing and want to support your body in a way that feels aligned and personalised.
🩵 When you are receiving medical care, but know deep within that there’s more you can do to support yourself and your being.
💙 Sometimes it’s not about finding a miracle fix ~ it’s about being witnessed, feeling supported, and having someone help you make sense of what’s going on.
💜 Naturopaths are trained to look at the full picture. I interpret your labs, refer for testing if needed, refer to your GP when it’s appropriate, and also work with holistic nutrition, herbs, energetic medicines, lifestyle, nervous system support… all the juicy stuff that helps you come back to yourself.

🧠✨ Naturopaths hold degrees in health science and work at the leading edge of restoring health and supporting the body’s natural balance, not just treating symptoms. Most of us are heart-led practitioners who have significant experiences and a sense of purpose leading us to this incredible profession. 💗

We’re not doctors, and we’re not trying to be - at least not in the modern, medical sense of the role. (That said, some naturopaths do hold doctorates or PhDs or are actual doctors as well… but not all of us).
Doctors are trained to treat disease and provide life-saving critical care - and we absolutely need them.
Naturopaths are trained to support the body’s healing processes, identify and address root causes, and create space for deep, personalised, and holistic care.
It’s not about choosing one over the other - both hold a very important place. 🙏🏼

As our world shifts and changes, I truly believe that taking responsibility for our own health, accessing the best possible care (and trustworthy information), and giving ourselves — and our loved ones — the time, support, and nourishment we all deserve is essential to staying strong and well. 🌳

Motherhood has changed what self-care looks like for me. 💛 It used to be frequent massages, cafe dates and road trips to waterfalls or pottery classes… now it’s a slow walk outside in the sun, gazing at flowers, 20 minutes alone to journal and sit quietly, and even just drinking a warm cuppa before it goes cold are my daily prop-ups. 😌 Nothing fancy.. but really special to me. 🌸✨ In a world that’s constantly speeding up and feeling very chaotic, these small daily moments help me stay grounded, soft, and (mostly) sane. 🤪💗

What does self-care look like for you these days?
Has it changed over time? I’d love to hear it.

This is a beautiful daily question to ask yourself. 🩵 Everything is always changing, including your intuition, which is like a GPS that constantly re-routes as new information comes in. Keep tuning in and stay curious. Honouring your ever-changing needs, staying connected to your body and building self-trust is what keeps us truly healthy. What worked yesterday, might not be what we need today, and that’s ok.

Don’t underestimate the power of herbal tea 😌🌿
Just like tinctures, teas can be blended based on herbal actions (like nervines, carminatives, or depuratives) and energetics (warming, cooling, moistening, drying) to support what your body needs in the moment. ☕️✨
Sipping on tea is a simple and beautiful way to connect with the plants and support your body everyday. 💛

You can’t just ‘let go’ of emotions… but you can let go of thoughts that contribute to an emotional experience. 💗
By realising and shifting any underlying beliefs (“This always happens to me”, “I’m not enough”, “They shouldn’t have done that” for example), you’re not denying the emotion, but rather disarming its fuel. What remains is the raw feeling - which if allowed to arise without resistance, often moves through naturally like a wave. 🌊

This is important because when we avoid feeling, repress and stagnate our emotions, it affects our physical, mental and spiritual health. Being comfortable with discomfort = real freedom and joy. 🌈

Through the lens of Human Design, we are either emotional or non-emotional beings, which I find really fascinating!
💫 Emotional beings experience inner emotional waves that aren’t necessarily tied to anything external. They amplify and process their emotions deeply, influence the emotional environments around them, and gain clarity on things over time as their emotional wave settles.

🌬️ Non-emotional beings don’t generate these ‘background’ emotional waves, but they’re highly sensitive to emotional energy from others and often amplify what they feel. Emotional energy can feel inconsistent or overwhelming, so it’s essential for them to create space to sense what’s theirs and what’s not.
They gain clarity through their inner authority (not emotions) and often thrive when they have healthy detachment from the emotional noise around them.

Which one to you feel like you are, or know you are?
I’m a non-emotional and absolutely thrive in my own calm energy… 😌✨ But I live with 3 emotionals and life can feel pretty intense! 🤪 Knowing this kind of information though, has brought so much clarity to how I support my energy, relationships, and everyday life.. I’m obsessed! 💚
