…ever wondered….? Experience it for yourself!

World Reflexology Week!
How does Reflexology Work?

Reflexology is based on the principle that the anatomy of the body is reflected in miniature on reflex zones on the feet, hands and ears. Stimulating a reflex can trigger a response in the corresponding area of the body.
With the application of specific pressure by a practitioner’s hands, thumbs, and fingers to reflex points in the hands, feet, or ears it helps to create a healthy harmonious state within the body and triggers the body's natural powers of self healing.

Same but different — my breakfast mantra.
⠀
Let’s be real — mornings are busy. I don’t want to think about breakfast. I want to eat it, feel nourished, and move on.
⠀
That’s why I keep it simple:
Chia + mixed seed pudding with yoghurt + fruit 🍓
⠀
✅ Easy to prep the night before
✅ Enough protein + healthy fats to keep me going until lunch
✅ One less decision in the morning
✅ Always feels a little different depending on the fruit I throw on top
⠀
It’s not about fancy recipes. It’s about creating habits that support your body and lifestyle in a sustainable way.
⠀
Same base, different topping, every day. Easy. Nourishing. Done.

You’ve likely heard the phrase, “You are what you eat”—but I take that a step further: you are what your cells absorb. That’s where micronutrients come in.

These tiny yet powerful nutrients—vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and phytonutrients—are essential for your cells to function and thrive. When your body has enough of them—what we call micronutrient sufficiency—it shows in every part of your health.

So, what exactly is micronutrient sufficiency?
Micronutrient sufficiency means your body has the right amount of nutrients in the right forms, in the right balance, and they’re actually being absorbed and utilized at the cellular level.

This isn’t just about eating a “healthy” diet. You can eat clean, organic, or plant-based, and still not meet your body’s needs if:

• Your food lacks variety or nutrient density
• You’re under-eating or skipping meals
• Digestion and absorption are compromised
• Chronic stress or medications interfere with nutrient metabolism

It’s not just about how much you eat—it’s about what your cells actually receive and use.

Why does this matter?
Because your entire body depends on well-nourished cells. Every organ, every system, every function—your energy, immune response, hormone balance, mental clarity, and mood—relies on your cells getting what they need.

When your body has micronutrient sufficiency, your cells can:

✅ Make and sustain energy
✅ Repair and regenerate tissues
✅ Detoxify effectively
✅ Reduce inflammation
✅ Communicate efficiently within systems
And you feel it. You feel clear, strong, balanced, and more you.

What happens when sufficiency is missing?
Before full-blown illness shows up, your body whispers with early signs:

• Fatigue or low energy
• Bloating or irregular digestion
• Trouble sleeping
• Mood swings or anxiety
• Brain fog or difficulty focusing
These are signs your body is working hard with not quite enough. And when this state continues, it can lead to more serious imbalances or even illness.

The good news?
You can rebuild sufficiency—starting today. When you focus on:

🥦 Real, nutrient-dense food
🧬 Supporting digestion and absorption
💧 Mineral-rich hydration
😴 Restorative sleep
🧘‍♀️ Managing stress
You give your body the tools to restore balance at the cellular level.

This is the foundation of clinical nutrition—not just managing symptoms, but identifying where your body needs support and supplying it with exactly what’s missing. When your body is nourished, it knows how to heal, repair, and thrive.
