Your diet and lifestyle during conception and pregnancy have the ability to either benefit or possibly cause adverse effects to your growing baby. So, it is super important to provide optimum nutrition as best you can during this critical time of development to give your child the best start in life...

Whatever your pre-conception journey has been, I am assuming if you are reading this, you are now pregnant and literally growing bones. This is such a unique and beautiful time in your life and one that is filled with much emotion and a whole lot of unknown, especially if this is your first pregnanc

Oh HELLO there!! As per usual, it has been a loOOOng time in between posts....sorry, not sorry 😅 I seem to be going on one of those "spending time off social media" things....ALL the time. And...I like it.

Let me be totally honest....I'm just not an IG gal. I'm a Naturopath, business owner , employee , wife, mum, friend, sister, b***y shaker, lover of food and espresso martinis and the list goes on. But IG lover and frequenter? I am not. 🤷‍♀️

So! I am jumping on to say HI, and YES I am still absolutely right here, and seeing all my beautiful patients on a weekly basis, working on all things your health. I love nothing more than helping people thrive, outside and in 🩷

Want to know more about me and what I do? Head to the link in my bio 👋 I'm so here for you, just not necessarily on IG 😅🤭

Growing up, all I knew was that I wanted to help people. How? I wasn’t sure. After completing my BA Psych degree (and quite frankly, feeling totally lost), I had an itch for the natural health industry, a true passion and lifestyle of mine. I enrolled at Nature Care College in 2014 and never looked back...

Hello. I am a Sydney-based Naturopath and my name is Phoebe Jobson.

Today, we talk about REST DAYS. When I was in the midst of my ED, resting was a foreign term. Allow my body to rest and incorporate days of no high intensity exercise into my week!? I just couldn't allow myself to do it due to my biggest fear: weight gain. Coupled with under-eating and undernourishment, my poor body and mind suffered BIG time.⁠
⁠
Fast forward the clock, having been in recovery for 5+ years, I LOVE resting and quite frankly, want more of it! Part of my recovery journey (with the help of my glorious Psychologist) was incorporating rest days into my week and also reducing the intensity of the exercise I was doing on the days I did choose to exercise (and doing movement I actually enjoyed and wanted to do). This my friends, was where the magic started to happen. My periods became like clockwork and I slowly learnt how to;⁠
⁠
- stop punishing my body through exercise,⁠
- allow myself the very much NEEDED rest days from high intensity exercise,⁠
- enjoy movement and exercise for all the great things it brought me. And here I am talking movement/blood flow/organ functioning, bone health, strength, happiness, overall health and well-being....NOT weight loss.⁠
⁠
Guys and girls....we need our rest. LADIES who have lost their period to something similar: If you want your periods to kick back in for good...this is paramount. ⁠
⁠
I know this isn't easy for some to hear ❤ and don't get me wrong....I still move my body on my rest days (because our bodies need to move) but it is more a gentle stroll, stretch session, or walk with my husband/friend. Perhaps a swim at the beach.⁠ You feel me?⁠
⁠
⁠
And....we also just need more rest, more down time, less stress, less fast-paced action in our lives. Something for us all to work on 🩷

So I was out with some adorable humans the other week and found myself giving one of the guys a serious screentime-before-bed peptalk🤣 (he did ask for advice...I don't just Naturopath-talk at my friends when we are out, I promise).⁠
⁠
Any patient that walks in my door who is having issues getting to sleep, staying a sleep, daytime tiredness etc.. there are a bunch of factors to address...yet one of the most simple and effective factors is...⁠
⁠
**REDUCING SCREEN TIME BEFORE BED!!⁠**
⁠
Did you know:⁠
⁠
😴 Looking at a blue light before bed significantly reduces our bodies ability to produce melatonin (our sleep hormone).⁠
⁠
😴 Ideally we are not looking at any screens 2 hours before bed (at least 1 hour)⁠
⁠
😴 First thing in the morning, we want natural sunlight to hit our eyes (not a screen) - as this helps promote the body's production of cortisol, our awake hormone!⁠
⁠
So step numero uno if you are having issues sleeping. Reassess your screen time!⁠
⁠
What can you do instead? Anything that is not on a screen. Read? Puzzle? Actually talk to any humans you may live with? Meal prep? Bake? Crosswords? Journal? Craft?⁠
⁠
Happy sleeping!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
