If your skin keeps flaring up…

It might not actually be a *skin* issue.

A lot of the time, it starts in the gut.

Here’s why 👇

Your gut plays a huge role in:

✨ inflammation

✨ hormone metabolism

✨ detoxification

✨ nutrient absorption

So when something is off in the gut…

It can show up on your skin.

This might look like:

– Bloating or digestive discomfort

– Irregular bowel movements

– Food sensitivities

– Persistent or inflamed acne

– Skin that improves… then flares again

One of the biggest things I see in clinic is clients focusing *only* on topical skincare…

But not addressing what’s happening internally.

And while skincare absolutely has its place —

It’s often not enough on its own.

Because if the gut is contributing…

You’re constantly working against what’s happening inside the body.

This is why I take a whole-body approach with skin.

Looking at gut health, hormones, stress and lifestyle together — not in isolation.

Because when you support the gut…

You often start to see shifts in the skin.

If your skin feels like it’s stuck in a cycle of flare-ups, this could be a piece of the puzzle 🌿

If I could get every client to focus on just *one* thing for their skin…

It would be this 👇

Eating balanced meals.

Not cutting everything out.

Not following a strict diet.

Not overcomplicating things.

Just building meals that include:

✨ protein

✨ healthy fats

✨ fibre

Here’s why this matters so much…

Because when your meals are balanced, your blood sugar becomes more stable.

And when blood sugar is stable:

→ hormones are more regulated

→ inflammation is lower

→ energy is more consistent

→ cravings reduce

Which all directly impacts your skin.

This is something I come back to again and again in clinic.

Because it’s simple, but it creates a *big* shift.

If you’re currently feeling overwhelmed with your skin and not sure where to start…

Start here.

Not perfectly.

Not all at once.

Just begin by asking:

“Is this meal balanced?”

Small, consistent changes like this are what actually move the needle 🌿

I talk about breath work with my clients all the time…

Because it’s one of the easiest, cheapest and most accessible ways to regulate your nervous system.

And most people are completely overlooking it.

Here’s why it matters 👇

Shallow, chest breathing is one of the quickest ways to signal to your body that you’re in fight or flight.

But deep, slow belly breathing?

That does the opposite.

It activates your parasympathetic nervous system — your “rest and digest” state.

Which is exactly where your body needs to be for:

✨ digestion

✨ hormone balance

✨ skin health

✨ stress resilience

And the best part… it takes less than a minute.

Some simple ways to start:

✨ 3 deep breaths before meals

→ helps shift your body into “rest and digest” so you can actually digest your food properly

✨ Box breathing before bed

→ inhale 4, hold 4, exhale 4, hold 4 (repeat for a few minutes)

✨ Slow, deep breaths during the day

→ especially when you feel overwhelmed or “on edge”

It’s simple… but it’s powerful.

And it’s often one of the first things I get clients to focus on — because you can’t out-supplement a dysregulated nervous system.

If you’ve been feeling constantly “on” or stressed, start here 🤍

Small shifts like this can make a bigger difference than you think.

I’ve been wearing my Oura ring for the last 6 months…

And it’s confirmed a lot of things I already suspected — but seeing it in data hits differently 👀

✨ Alcohol impacts my sleep way more than I thought

Not just for one night… but sometimes up to a week for my body and sleep to fully recover.

✨ Stress has a huge impact on my sleep

Especially my deep sleep and how quickly my heart rate drops overnight.

✨ Stress isn’t always obvious

Even on days I don’t *feel* stressed — but I’m busy (like full clinic days where I’m “on” mentally all day)… my stress markers are higher.

✨ My routine really matters

Changes to my routine show up almost immediately in my sleep and recovery.

✨ It’s made me prioritise rest more intentionally

Scheduling rest days, having a proper wind-down routine, and actually supporting my nervous system and not just pushing through.

✨ My cycle insights have been really interesting

My confirmed ovulation is later than I thought, and my luteal phase is shorter which has prompted me to do further hormone testing to check in on progesterone post ovulation.

One of the biggest takeaways for me…

Is how much your body is constantly communicating with you.

And when you start paying attention — whether that’s through data or just tuning in — you can actually start making decisions that support your body, not work against it.

This is something I bring into clinic as well.

Looking at the patterns, the signals, and what your body is trying to tell us 🌿

Do you track your sleep or cycle at all? I’d love to know 🤍

Your skin isn’t random.

It’s communicating with you 👀

Breakouts, congestion, inflammation…

They’re not just something to “get rid of” —

They’re often a reflection of what’s happening internally.

This is how I look at skin in clinic 👇

✨ Breakouts around the jawline/chin

→ Often linked to hormones

✨ Cystic acne on the cheeks

→ Can be linked to digestion + gut health

✨ Red, inflamed acne

→ Often a sign of internal inflammation

✨ Skin that flares during stress

→ Nervous system involvement

✨ Persistent, stubborn acne not improved with skincare

→ Usually deeper root causes that haven’t been addressed yet

Now this doesn’t mean it’s *only* one thing.

Most of the time, it’s a combination.

Which is why just treating the skin topically often isn’t enough.

Because if you’re not addressing what’s happening internally…

You’re constantly chasing symptoms.

This is why I take a whole-body approach with clients — looking at gut health, hormones, stress, and lifestyle together.

Because when you understand what your skin is trying to tell you…

You can actually start working *with* your body instead of against it 🌿

If you’ve been feeling stuck with your skin and not sure what it’s trying to tell you, I can help guide you through that. Bookings are available via the link in my bio.

You can have the “perfect” diet…

And still struggle with your skin.

Because what most people overlook is this:

Stress and sleep impact your skin just as much — if not more — than what you eat.

Here’s why 👇

When your body is constantly in stress mode:

→ Cortisol increases

→ Blood sugar becomes more unstable

→ Inflammation increases

→ Gut function becomes disrupted

And all of this directly impacts your skin.

Now layer that with poor sleep…

And your body doesn’t get the chance to:

– repair

– regulate hormones

– reduce inflammation

So even if you’re eating really well…

Your body isn’t in a state where it can actually *benefit* from it.

This is why I’ll often see clients who are:

✨ eating “clean”

✨ taking the right supplements

✨ doing all the things

But still not seeing results.

Because their nervous system is constantly “on”.

The goal isn’t to have a perfect diet.

It’s to create an internal environment where your body actually feels safe enough to heal.

That looks like:

✨ prioritising sleep

✨ regulating your nervous system

✨ creating moments of rest in your day

This is often the missing piece when your skin feels stuck.

If this resonates, it might be time to zoom out and look at the bigger picture 🌿

Most people don’t need more supplements…

They need the *right* ones.

Because taking 5–10 random supplements and hoping something works?

That’s not a strategy.

That’s guesswork.

And honestly… it’s one of the biggest things I see when new clients come in.

They’re already taking:

– A probiotic

– Zinc

– Magnesium

– Maybe something for hormones

– Maybe something for gut health

But nothing is really *moving the needle*.

Not because supplements don’t work —

But because they’re not targeted to what’s actually going on for YOU.

When I’m deciding what supplements matter, I look at:

✨ What are the root drivers? (gut, hormones, stress, inflammation)

✨ What is this person actually deficient in or struggling with?

✨ What symptoms are showing up and what patterns do they point to?

✨ What will create the *most impact* with the least overwhelm?

Because more isn’t better.

Targeted is better.

And in a lot of cases…

We’re not adding more in — we’re simplifying.

This is why personalised support matters.

Because the right supplement for someone else might do absolutely nothing for you.

If you’re currently taking a handful of supplements and not seeing results…

This might be why.

You’ve cleaned up your diet.

You’re eating the “healthiest” you ever have.

You’ve cut out trigger foods…

But your skin is still flaring.

So what’s going on? 👀

It might have less to do with *what* you’re eating…

And more to do with *how* you’re eating.

Because blood sugar has a much bigger impact on your skin than most people realise.

If you’re:

– Skipping meals

– Not eating breakfast

– Starting your day with coffee

– Going long periods without eating

– Getting home starving and overeating

These are all signs your blood sugar might be out of balance.

And this is exactly why you can be eating “healthy”…

But still struggling with acne.

Because it’s not just what you eat — it’s how your body responds to it.

Signs your blood sugar might be impacting your skin:

– Energy crashes in the afternoon

– Cravings for sugar or carbs

– Feeling shaky, irritable or “hangry”

– Needing coffee to get through the day

– Breakouts around the jawline/chin

The goal isn’t to cut everything out or be overly restrictive.

It’s to:

✨ Build balanced meals (protein + fats + fibre)

✨ Eat regularly

✨ Reduce big spikes and crashes

This is one of the first things I look at with clients struggling with acne — because when we stabilise blood sugar, we often see a big shift in their skin.

If your skin feels unpredictable or reactive, this could be the missing piece 🌿

I committed to meditating every day for 100 days… here’s what actually changed 🧘🏼‍♀️✨

At the start of this year, I made a commitment to prioritise regulating my nervous system and making meditation my daily anchor.

Some days has been 20 minutes

Some days has been 5

Some days it was literally just sitting with my eyes closed at my desk or in bed and breathing because that was all I had in me

But I showed up anyway 🤍

And over time, I started to notice real shifts…

✨ I feel calmer day-to-day

Not in a “life is stress-free” way but my baseline feels more regulated

✨ I don’t get as caught up in my thoughts

My mind still wanders (a lot 😅) but I notice my thoughts more, instead of spiralling in them

✨ I have more mental clarity

Some of my best ideas and problem solving have come after meditation

When my mind finally has space to slow down

✨ My capacity for stress has improved

The things that used to overwhelm me don’t hit the same anymore

It feels like my nervous system has more resilience

✨ It’s become something I actually enjoy

What started as a habit now feels like something I *want* to do — not something on my to-do list

✨ And the biggest one… consistency matters more than perfection

Some days didn’t feel productive at all

But those were often the days I needed it the most

100 days later, this has easily been one of the most powerful things I’ve done for my nervous system 🌿

I’ve been speaking about this a lot with clients lately, because supporting your nervous system has such a ripple effect on your health — from stress, to hormones, to gut health… and especially your skin

If you’ve been thinking about starting, take this as your sign 🤍

I personally use the Insight Timer app (the free version is great), and I’ve added the widget to my home screen so I can see my streak to stay consistent

Even 3 deep breaths counts ✨

You might think your digestion is “fine”…

But these signs say otherwise 👇

– Bloating after meals (even if it’s mild)
– Feeling heavy, sluggish or tired after eating
– Skin flare-ups (acne, congestion, inflammation)
– Irregular bowel movements (not going daily or not fully emptying)
– Cravings for sugar or carbs
– Reflux, burping or gas

The thing is…

Digestive issues don’t always show up as obvious symptoms.

A lot of the time, they show up subtly and we normalise them.

But your gut is at the centre of everything:

✨ nutrient absorption
✨ hormone balance
✨ skin health
✨ energy levels

So if something feels “slightly off”… it’s worth paying attention to.

Because small symptoms now often become bigger ones later.

If you’ve been noticing any of these, this is your sign to start looking a little deeper 🌿
