As the season begins to change, it is common to notice a shift in how you feel, whether that is in your energy, your mood, or simply a sense that your body is craving for something different.

This is a time to acknowledge that change and allow your routine to evolve with it, rather than expecting yourself to keep moving in the same way you did a few months ago.

The cooler months tend to bring a more grounding energy, and there is real value in leaning into that by creating a little more space in your week, spending more time at home, and allowing your nervous system to settle into a steadier rhythm.

It is also an opportunity to let go of habits, expectations, or patterns that no longer feel supportive, and to simplify what your days look like so that what you are doing feels more aligned with how you want to feel.

This might look like shifting your food choices towards meals that are more warming and nourishing, adjusting your movement so it feels supportive rather than demanding, and making space in the morning to get natural light and set a consistent rhythm for the day.

When you respond to these seasonal shifts in a considered way, you tend to feel more grounded, more balanced, and better supported through the months ahead.

Each seasonal shift brings an opportunity to shift, shed and grow.

What it’s like to see a naturopath ❤️

It’s so important to us that women are led with care that isn’t rushed, surface-level, or satisfied with “everything looks normal.”

We take the time to understand you properly and slow things down.

We listen carefully, ask questions, and look deeper.
We look between the lines of your symptoms and your history.

This is a space where your experience is taken seriously, where there is time to explore what’s been missed and where understanding you as a whole person matters.

When you feel truly seen and understood,
everything becomes clearer including the path forward.

If you’ve been feeling like something isn’t quite right,
this is the work we do every day.

Let’s be honest… bowel habits aren’t exactly dinner table conversation 😅

But if you’re not going to the bathroom daily, your body may be asking for a little support.

I’ve shared some simple places to start in the slides above.

Save this for later and send it to someone who might appreciate it 💩

Lately I’ve been deep in the world of growing my tea brand

Formulas, suppliers, packaging, tastings, logistics, training, learning entirely new systems all while still seeing patients in clinic. And I have to say, I’m loving the challenge.

Creating Steep’d has reminded me how much I enjoy building something slowly and intentionally. Taking what I’ve spent years studying in women’s health and herbal medicine and translating it into something people can experience in their daily rituals.

Running a brand stretches a completely different part of my brain. There are moments of problem solving, moments of creativity, and plenty of moments where you’re learning as you go.

But at the heart it’s about helping women pause, nourish themselves, and reconnect with small daily rituals that support their health.

is simply another way to share that work beyond the consult room.

Homocysteine is one of the most overlooked blood markers I see in clinic especially in women who feel inflamed, puffy, anxious, or notice changes in their cycle despite “doing everything right.”

When homocysteine rises, it’s rarely random. It usually reflects a system under strain nutrient depletion, gut absorption issues, chronic stress, or increased hormone and detox demands. This is why elevated homocysteine often sits alongside puffiness, skin reactivity, sleep disruption, PMS or cycle changes.

The good news is that this marker is responsive. When nutrient foundations are restored and the body feels supported again, inflammation settles, hormones regulate more easily, and homocysteine often comes down naturally.

**Taking iron doesn’t automatically mean iron levels will rise**

Iron absorption and storage depend on:

the digestive system
gut lining
the liver
Nutrient status
Pill usage
Protein intake

…and not just the dose in a capsule.

If stomach acid is low, bile flow is sluggish, or the gut lining is irritated, iron may pass through without being absorbed or can remain poorly utilised.

This is why I see women take high dose iron consistently and still see little change in ferritin ( iron stores).

Iron also relies on a network of nutrients and metabolic signals to move into storage. Vitamin A, B12, folate, zinc and adequate protein all play key roles in transporting, binding and storing iron in the body.

Liver workload and hormone binding proteins such as SHBG further influence how iron is handled.

When these foundations are supported, iron can finally be absorbed and stored effectively 👏 often without higher doses or harsh supplementation.
