Hello January 🤍

No pressure. No “new year, new you”.
Just gentle ways to support your energy, mood and nervous system in the darkest month of the year.
January is a time to soften rather than push.
To warm, nourish and rest rather than strive.

Think:
✨ calm over productivity
✨ consistency over perfection
✨ supportive food, gentle movement and earlier nights
✨ restorative yoga that soothes the nervous system, not stimulates it

Even a few minutes of stillness matters.
A candle lit.
A walk in daylight.
A supported child’s pose before bed.
This month, let’s honour where we actually are - not where we think we should be.

If you’re craving deeper rest I have a couple of spaces left on my Sunday sessions - Restorative yoga once a month January - March. Pop me a message to book or link is in my bio 🤍

And my gentle Friday morning Hatha classes are back now too if you would like to join - link in bio

Wishing you a slow, grounded start to the year ✨

If your stomach is controlling your social life, read this 👇🏻

Unpredictable bloating, rushing to the loo, discomfort after meals… these symptoms are incredibly common, but they are not “normal”. At this time of year especially, I see a big increase in digestive flare-ups - and for good reason.

Here are 3 of the most common causes I see in clinic:

1️⃣ Your gut bacteria are out of balance
Festive foods, alcohol and richer meals can disrupt your microbiome. When your beneficial gut bugs aren’t thriving, digestion slows and fermentation increases - often showing up as bloating, gas or urgency.

2️⃣ Your nervous system is on high alert

The gut and brain communicate constantly. When stress rises, digestion shuts down to prioritise your stress response. Food sits longer, motility slows, and symptoms flare.

3️⃣ How you’re eating - not just what

Rushed meals, desk lunches, grazing all day, or not chewing properly all place extra strain on your digestive system. This is one of the biggest drivers of bloating I see.

The good news? Small, steady shifts make a real difference. Here are 3 simple changes to try this week:

✔️ Take 10–15 minutes to eat and chew until the texture is soft

✔️ Add one fermented food a day (kefir, sauerkraut, kimchi, yoghurt, kombucha)

✔️ Swap one heavier meal for something simple + fibre-rich like soup, stew, roasted veg or lentils

And here’s the important part…

If this is happening more often than not, it may be a sign of something deeper - microbiome imbalance, IBS, low stomach acid, SIBO, inflammation or nutrient deficiencies.

You do not need to navigate this alone or keep guessing your way through Google.

👉 DM me to arrange a discovery call, and let’s explore what could really be going on and how we can support your gut to heal.

Any gut symptoms, especially new symptoms, should also be discussed with your GP.

Hello DECEMBER ❄️

A month full of joy, busy calendars… and often a slightly frazzled nervous system.

Here are 5 gentle ways to stay grounded, nourished and well as we move through the festive season:

🌿 Keep your nervous system steady - five minutes of movement, breathwork or fresh air really can shift your whole day.

💧 Hydrate between the bubbles - alternate drinks with water and avoid drinking on an empty stomach to support your liver, sleep and blood sugar.

🎄 Choose treat days intentionally - enjoy what you choose, savour it, and then gently return to your rhythm. No guilt needed.

🧘‍♀️ December reset - Bhramari (humming) breath + Legs Up The Wall for 5–10 minutes is a beautiful way to calm a busy mind.

✨ Gentle boundaries - saying no is an act of self-care. Protect your energy so you can say a wholehearted yes to the things that matter.

Save this for the month ahead and share with someone who needs a December nudge. 💛

There’s been a lot of talk this week about PFAS - the “forever chemicals” highlighted in the Panorama documentary. And understandably, many of you have messaged me feeling worried about what this means for your health and your children’s health.

Here’s the most important thing I want you to hear:
Please don’t panic.

It is impossible to avoid PFAS completely in modern life. The goal isn’t perfection - it’s reduction, and supporting your body to detoxify well.
Here are some simple, practical things you can start doing today:

🌿 1. Support your detox pathways

Daily fibre for regular bowel movements, plenty of dark leafy greens for liver support, and a rainbow of plant foods to help your body “take out the trash.”
Small everyday habits matter far more than extreme detoxes.

🍎 2. Choose cleaner produce

Buy organic where possible ( are a great choice) and wash all fruit + veg.
Check the Dirty Dozen / Clean 15 lists.
Coffee, grapes and wine can be higher in pesticides - I personally use for a cleaner option.

🧼 3. Switch up your cleaning products

Great low-tox brands I use include:online, , , and .

👕 4. Look at your clothing + skincare

Choose more natural fibres (I love and ).
For beauty + body care:
, , Dead Sea Magic mineral shampoo, ,

🕯 5. Ditch synthetic candles & plug-in fresheners
Choose soy, beeswax or natural wax candles with real essential oils.
Add air-purifying plants around your home - peace lilies, snake plants and English ivy are some of the best.

🍳 6. Upgrade your cookware as things wear out

Stainless steel, ceramic or cast iron are great PFAS-free choices.
Also - second-hand furniture is wonderful: less off-gassing and more sustainable.

Please remember:
You do not need to overhaul your life.
Choose one or two swaps that feel doable, and build from there.

If you found this helpful, double tap + share - this conversation needs to be supportive, not scary. 💚

Vegan Millionaire’s Shortbread… but make it nourishing 🙌

Layers of nuts, oats, dates and dark chocolate mean this slice is naturally packed with plant protein, healthy fats and fibre.

Satisfying, energising and always a party-pleaser 🍫✨🌱

Feeling so proud of Caroline 💛

This is what happens when small, consistent changes meet a plan that actually fits your life. We focused on nourishing meals (not restriction), steady blood sugar, gentle movement, and simple habits to support sleep and stress.

The “weight loss” was a bonus - feeling in control and well was the real win.

If you’d like a personalised, evidence-based plan that helps you feel more energised, balanced and back in the driver’s seat, pop me a message or head to the link in bio to book a discovery call.

Yoga isn’t the shapes - it’s how I live between them.

Breath before phone, tiny movement snacks while the kettle boils, a mindful pause before lunch, kind boundaries, a dose of nature, and legs-up-the-wall before bed. These off-the-mat practices keep me steady for family, work and perimenopause changes - no pretzel poses required 💛

If this helps, tap save for later and share with someone who needs a softer approach today.
