I’m hearing a lot of people assume that because they’ve been out in the sun this summer that their vitamin D level will see them through winter.

And this may be true for some people.

But for most, there are many reasons why your vitamin D level is likely to be low:

🔹 you’re living in the UK with limited sunny days
🔹 you work indoors 5 days a week (or on night shifts)
🔹 you’re fully clothed when you go out - only exposing your face, arms and maybe your lower legs
🔹 you slap on the sunscreen when you go out in the sun
🔹 you have darker skin
🔹 you’re over 65
🔹 you have a health condition like coeliac disease, Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis
🔹 you take antibiotics, steroids or blood pressure meds
🔹 you have genetic variations (SNPs) that affect how your body makes vitamin D 🙋🏼‍♀️

Here’s why this matters:

Optimal vitamin D isn’t just about bones or your immune system. It supports your mood and energy, reduces inflammation, supports heart health and helps reduce your risk of type 2 diabetes.

The NHS recommends supplementing vitamin D from October to March, but without knowing your level, you could be taking too little (no benefit) or too much (potential harm).

Sometimes the best thing you can do for your health is take an hour just for you.

I first met Blair at a local netwalking event (Creative Wellbeing Circle) and loved her calm, grounded energy.

She’s a reflexologist who supports people with lowering stress, improving sleep, digestion, and even pain relief, through deeply relaxing foot and facial reflexology (yes, it’s as calming as it sounds!).

What I love most about Blair is how genuinely she cares. She creates such a safe, nurturing space that you walk out feeling lighter, calmer, and just... better.

You can find her at in Cheltenham.

If you’re in need of some proper downtime, go give her a follow or book a treatment 🧡

Meet Harriet, a busy mum of two, wo came to me frustrated and tired of living with psoriasis.

She’d dealt with red, itchy patches on her elbows, arms, knees and scalp for years, and they’d only gotten worse since her last pregnancy. A sunny holiday brought some relief, but even steroid creams from her GP weren’t cutting it.

People on the street and the kids at school were all asking, ‘What’s wrong with your skin?'.

Harriet decided it was time to do something about it and, on my recommendation, bought a stool test to take a deeper dive into her body.

As a nutritional therapist, I know everyone’s psoriasis is unique, but the gut plays a key role in our health and can impact skin conditions.

With Harriet’s results, we started uncovering her root causes:

🔹 Low gut microbiome diversity (affecting immune resilience)
🔹 Low SIgA levels (making skin recovery harder)
🔹 High candida levels (which can worsen psoriasis)

So, with this information, I produced a tailored nutrition and lifestyle plan that centred around:

✨ Adding diverse, nutrient-rich foods to support her microbiome
✨ Managing her stress - a major trigger for psoriasis flare-ups
✨ Removing certain foods temporarily to see their impact

Within just three weeks, Harriet noticed real improvements - not just less itchy and red patches, but better skin on her face, and more energy too.

If you or someone you know is struggling with psoriasis, please book a free chat with me and let’s get to the root cause of it together.

Your GP said there's nothing more they can do for your psoriasis. But what if there's more to explore?

This is a snapshot of my brainstorm investigating possible underlying root causes for a client with long-term psoriasis. She'd been back and forth with her GP, but nothing seemed to be working.

And this is where GPs are put in a difficult position.

They often have less than 10 minutes to chat with you and find a solution - which is usually something that will treat the symptoms rather than get to the root cause.

This is where I, as a nutritional therapist using the functional medicine approach, am able to work differently.

I have the time to dig deeper into your health history, your diet, your lifestyle and your environment. I may even use appropriate testing (blood, stool, hormone, genetic and more) to get a better picture of what’s going on in your body.

This comprehensive deep dive into what might be causing your health issue then allows me to develop a personalised nutrition and lifestyle plan to help you optimise your health and wellbeing, which could see improvements in your condition.

Whether you have psoriasis or another chronic condition, I’m here to help you get answers.

If you’re ready to dig deeper, my doors are open. Let’s chat 🧡

Psoriasis isn’t just a skin condition.

It’s Psoriasis Awareness Week, and this year’s theme is ‘Comorbidities’ - the other health conditions that often come alongside psoriasis.

Common psoriasis comorbidities include:

💔 Cardiovascular disease - chronic inflammation can damage blood vessels and increase risk of heart disease and stroke

🦴 Psoriatic arthritis - up to 30% of people with psoriasis develop joint pain, stiffness, and swelling

🩸 Type 2 diabetes & metabolic syndrome - the inflammation creates a bidirectional relationship with blood sugar and metabolic health

🧠 Mental health challenges - higher rates of depression, anxiety, and social isolation - and it’s not just emotional, inflammation affects brain chemistry too

The common thread?

Systemic inflammation.

The inflammation you see on your skin is happening throughout your entire body.

This is why I take a holistic approach to supporting people with psoriasis - addressing that underlying inflammation through personalised nutrition can help support your whole body, not just your skin.

Which of these comorbidities would you like me to talk about in more detail? Comment below👇

Every winter, we’re told: “Take vitamin D.”

But here’s what you’re not being told…

Without knowing your vitamin D level, you’re supplementing in the dark. And that’s why so many people still feel exhausted all winter despite taking it every day.

Too little? You’re basically using a teaspoon to fill a swimming pool.

Too much? That comes with its own risks.

Your friend might need 400IU a day. You might need 4000IU. There’s no one-size-fits-all.

Most people start supplementing with no idea what their vitamin D level actually is.

And guessing with your health isn’t a strategy.

The good news? Testing is easier and more affordable than you think. No GP appointments, no waiting lists, done from home.

Want to know your vitamin D level before you supplement this winter?

I'm down to my final four Mini Wellness Reset sessions for October. And honestly? I've been reminded this week exactly why these sessions matter so much.

I had a session this week with someone who'd spent months trying to piece together health advice from social media. Different accounts saying different things. Conflicting information everywhere. She was more confused than when she started.

Sound familiar?

That's the thing about getting health advice from random posts online - nobody's looking at YOUR specific situation and what YOUR body actually needs.

Nobody's connecting the dots between your symptoms, your lifestyle, and what's actually realistic for you to change.

If you've been feeling stuck in that cycle - researching but never really moving forward, trying bits of advice that don't quite work, or just feeling overwhelmed by it all - I get it.

Sometimes you just need someone to sit down with you, look at what's actually happening, and say, "Here's what I think is going on, and here's what to try first."

That's what the Mini Wellness Reset does.

No overwhelm, no conflicting advice.
Just 45 minutes of clarity and a simple plan that makes sense for your life.

I have room for four sessions before this offer closes next Friday.

So, if you've been thinking about it, now's the time.

I'll pop the link for all the details in the comments, or drop me a DM if you want to chat first about whether it's right for you 🧡

Ever wondered what actually happens in a Mini Wellness Reset? Let me take you behind the scenes.

A lot of people think it's just going to be me telling them to drink more water and eat more vegetables (spoiler: it might!).

But we also have a proper conversation about what's going on for you specifically.

I'm not just looking at what you're eating - I'm looking at patterns. When do your symptoms show up? What makes them better or worse? What have you already tried? How's your sleep? Your stress levels? Your digestion? What medications are you on?

All of these pieces matter, and most people have never had someone ask them these questions in this way.

The solutions aren't complicated - but you need to understand what your body has been trying to tell you first. And that's exactly what we figure out together in those 45 minutes.

And once you understand that? The next steps become obvious.

You're not guessing anymore.
You're not trying random things you found on TikTok.
You have a clear, personalised plan that makes sense for your life.

That's the difference between spending months stuck in the same patterns and actually moving forward.

I have just a few October spots left for the Mini Wellness Reset.

If you're ready to stop guessing and start understanding what your body needs, now's the time.

I'll pop the link to book in the comments, or drop me a DM with any questions 🧡

I've been getting quite a few questions about whether the Mini Wellness Reset is the right fit, so let me help you figure that out.

✨ It's perfect for you if:

You know something's "off" but you're not sure what. You're dealing with a niggly symptom like bloating, headaches, or brain fog, but you can't quite put your finger on what's causing them.

You want to feel better but you don't want to overhaul your whole life. You're looking for practical changes that actually fit into your real routine, not some perfect Instagram version of life.

You're tired of conflicting advice. One source says one thing, another says the opposite, and you're stuck not knowing who to believe or where to start.

You want a starting point, not a complete lifestyle makeover. You don't need every area of your health addressed right now - you just want to understand what's going on and get some clear next steps.

You're ready to invest 45 minutes in feeling better. Not hours of appointments or lengthy programmes, just focused time to get clarity and a plan.

✨ It's probably NOT for you if:

You're looking for weight loss support, need help managing multiple complex symptoms, or have a diagnosed health condition that needs more comprehensive support. (That's what my longer programmes are for - just ask me about them.)

The reality?

Most people I work with are fed up with feeling "meh" and just want someone to help them make sense of what's happening. They don't want complicated protocols or dramatic changes - they want simple, clear guidance that works.

Sound like you?

I only have a few October spots left for the Mini Wellness Reset. Once they're gone, they’re gone.

If you're ready to stop second-guessing yourself and get some actual answers, now's the time.

Please DM me for the details, or if you have any questions 🧡

Tell me if you’ve done this before…

It’s Sunday evening. You’re trying to wind down from the weekend. But instead of relaxing, you’re down another Google rabbit hole trying to figure out why you feel the way you do.

One article says it’s gluten.
Another says you need more fibre.
Someone on Instagram swears by probiotics.
Your friend mentioned cutting out dairy.
TikTok says it’s all about gut health but has 47 different opinions on how to fix it.

And now? You’re overwhelmed, confused, and no closer to actually feeling better.

Plus you’ve wasted your entire evening and you’re still scrolling at 10pm.

Here’s what I know: Dr. Google isn’t personalised to YOU.

Those articles don’t know about your specific symptoms, your lifestyle, your food preferences, or what’s actually realistic for you to change.

That’s why people stay stuck in the research phase for months (sometimes years) without actually making progress.

What if you could skip the endless scrolling and just get answers that are specific to your situation?

That’s exactly what my Mini Wellness Reset does.

No conflicting advice.
No information overload.
Just 45 minutes with someone who can actually help you make sense of what your body is telling you.

You get a clear 3-step plan tailored to YOUR life, not a generic “this works for everyone” approach that leaves you guessing.

Don’t let October fly by.
Don’t spend another Sunday evening going down the Google rabbit hole.
Get actual answers instead.

Ready to stop researching and start feeling better? I have a handful of October spots left. DM me RESET for the details.
