523. Top 5 Things I LOVED This Wk:

1. Mine and Eadie's new 8pm ritual: she puts a pillow on the floor for me to sit on while she perches on the edge of the bed braiding my hair while I read her a chapter of our book. Worth noting that Eadie has no idea how to braid so I end up looking like a unicorn with a mullet. She insists that I sleep with it in and in the morning she makes me do the big reveal when I take it out. She'll say “See! Heatless curls!” Apologies about my crazy hair to all my clients this week.
2. Finding a twenty dollar note on my morning walk.
3. Baking a lemon, yoghurt and blueberry cake with lemons from our friend's tree.
4. A crazy, spontaneous spring cleaning day today. I'm not sure what got into us, but I cleaned and organised the inside of the house for most of the day and my husband did the outside and the garage. A proper deep clean which also included wiping down all the surfaces and windowsills, taking all the old invites off the fridge, pulling apart the robot vacuum to get all the hair out that gets twisted around the wheels and filling up the water in my car windscreen wipers which had been empty for months.
5. A lightening of the mental load.

PS. The mental load has been palpable, probably since I got back from Bali in early July, if I'm being honest. Organising some reno's, a full clinic load, an exciting upgrade for my business, an 8 hour netball gala day, Book Week costume, buying birthday presents with Eadie for her friends. All good things -but I've had to stay organised which doesn't come naturally to me.

But as of this week, loose ends have been tied up and there will be more space! More ying to balance out the yang. More exhales and convalescing.

I hope you have a beautiful week 🙂

Balanced food for busy ppl!

The only thing that I miss about being coeliac are oats!! The “gf oats” are a bit of a grey area for me.

I was reminded recently by a lovely client about Brookfarm gf porridge! The best part? Eadie eats it too! She cooks it on the stove for both of us.

This is today’s bowl with Greek yoghurt, h**p seeds, raw honey, banana and strawbs.

Ingredients in the comments. Bought from Go Vita Park Beach Plaza 👧🏼🐻🐻🐻 🥣

522. Top 5 Things I LOVED This Wk:

1. One night a week my husband and I bake something together. I'm not exactly sure how this new ritual came about. This week we made raspeberry and white chocolate muffins and they were perfect! Go Vita Park Beach Plaza now sells white choc chips in their bulk containers!
2. A peaceful walk thorough the Botanical Gardens in the misty rain. I was so surprised by how many natives were in bloom! Isopogon, flannel flowers (!!), philoteca, mountain devil and a handful of different banksias.
3. Eadie being awarded Player's Player at her netball game. I love watching how in flow she is when she plays.
4. Braving the rain and having a romantic date night.
5. Walking outside at night and looking up at the stars. It'd been a while since I've done that!

Getting to the pointy end of the six month mentoring program on the female microbiome and I've just completed the paediatric module. As you can imagine, working mainly with children and having a tween myself, I've been looking forward to this part of the course!

So many interesting points were made about the environmental and lifestyle factors that upset the vaginal microbiome of children, tweens and teens.

-bath products like bubble baths, bath oils, bath salts and bath bombs! All the things my ten year old loves!
-tight and non-breathable active wear (hello Nike Pro's) or leotards
-even non-breathable school uniforms like tights and shorts
-synthetic underwear as opposed to moisture wicking and breathable fibres like bamboo or cotton
-swimming pools and spas
-not washing new clothing or un**es before wearing them the first time

Food for thought!

💌I used to put little drawings in Eadie’s preschool lunchbox.

💌When she started big school and learnt to read I started writing her little love notes.

💌Now sometimes I open my lunchbox and find little messages from her.

521. Top 5 Things I LOVED This Wk:

1. Finding Empire Records on Netflix! It might actually be my favourite movie of all time...
2. Arnott's Shapes gf chicken crimpies.
3. Eadie walking home by herself now. I love witnessing these new chapters of independence and the way it shifts dynamics for us as a family.
4. Reading Blueback by Tim Winton together each night. We've both been having ocean dreams this week! There were whales in Eadie's dreams one night and seals in mine the next!
5. Going for a walk on the jetty after a big week (month, couple of months...) of clinic.

Emma the Naturopath xx

PS. It would have been easier to not go walking because I was feeling tired. But I went anyway because I knew it would be the last little bit of sunshine for a few days. Even though the actual jetty only takes a few minutes to walk, it probably took me at least twenty minutes each way because I kept stopping every ten metres to just stop, soak it all in and just pay attention to everything. I sat on the end for a while and ate some dried mango and just decompressed.

It felt like a hug to my nervous system. Like topping up a bank account.

What is causing withdrawals from your nervous system right now? How are you making deposits to replenish the balance?

I hope you have a beautiful week :)

CLINIC MUSINGS
A reflection of the week (month!) in clinic!

Wow, July was a big month in my little clinic! I gave myself the last two days off seeing clients to keep chipping away at the vaginal microbiome course I’m doing, get a haircut 💇🏻‍♀️, prepare my tax stuff (this did not happen) and just have some quiet time at home. 🏡🫖🥱

I did a big liquid herb order today to restock the dispensary for all my beautiful August clients! There is still some space available so feel free to email me at carrots_and_apples@hotmail.com if youd like to come in for a chit chat!🍍
