Coffee & Anxiety, what’s the link? ☕️🧠 I’m going to break some hearts today with this post, but one of the first things I do when a client tells me they have anxiety is to ask them to stop drinking coffee. Coffee is so incredibly linked with anxiety due to its ability to raise cortisol (our stress hormone) and put us in the “fight or flight response”. Coffee also makes us burn through nutrients faster and blocks absorption of certain minerals and vitamins. 😬 It creates a vicious cycle because often people will drink their coffee in the morning for a moment of peace, calm & joy -but unfortunately this is setting you up for a day of stress and anxiety. Majority of my clients like coffee due to the ritual of it, so I invite you to create a new ritual: make a fancy alternative latte (so many options these days), have a herbal tea, or even something still with caffeine like normal tea or matcha. Just get coffee out of here, you’ll thank me later! 🙏🏼 #coffee #anxiety #coffeeandanxiety #mentalhealth #naturopath #sunshinecoastnaturopath #sorry
🤔The question on everybody’s lips. How the he 🤔The question on everybody’s lips. How the heck do I sort out my hormones? Let’s start with the basics: 1.Address lifestyle factors. 🧘🏻‍♀️ Stress, sleep, exercise, hydration You’ve heard me say it, you’ve heard your mum say it.. Stress, sleep and hydration affect all parts of your body’s functions. Prioritise sleep girl, work on stress management practises like journaling, yoga/mediation if you’re into that, get out in nature, move your body, listen to some boppin’ beats. 🎶 And drink that water! Aim for 1.5-2L per day and herbal teas count. ☕️ 2.Remove endocrine disruptors. You may have heard along the grape vine that there’s some sneaky baddies hanging out in your skincare products, shampoos and foods -show them the door boo. Get rid out as much plastic food packaging as you can, say “buh-bye” to plastic cookware and utensils, get a glass water bottle, buy all natural skin products (but beware of greenwashing). And for the love of god, NEVER put plastic in the microwave -or heat it in any way. 3.Get hormones tested. 🧪 I mean, we’ve got to know what’s actually going on right? Saliva hormone testing is better than blood testing for accurate hormone results. You can also do a DUTCH test which is a urine test and is great for showing metabolites of hormones. The results will show us if you have high or low oestrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA & cortisol. 4.Take prescribed herbs and supplements. 🌱 Based on the results from the test we’ll know what supplements and herbs to take to create that sweet sweet balance. No matter what anyone says, there is no blanket herb that will “balance” hormones -it’s very individualised. But as well as adjusting the hormone levels, we want to figure out why it’s out of balance in the first place and address that! 5.Check gut bacteria.🦠 I couldn’t even count the amount of times a client has come to me thinking their hormones were whack, when it was actually gut bacteria making them act crazy AF. PMS is definitely real, but if its happening all throughout the month, my bet is that there’s some gut bacteria in on the fun. #balancehormones #balancehormonesnaturally #hormonenaturopath #naturopathsunshinecoast
☕️Okay, yes this is a trick question. If you ☕️Okay, yes this is a trick question. If you don’t already know my stance on coffee for people with anxiety & fatigue, then prepare for a small pang of heartbreak… One of the first things I do when a client tells me they have anxiety is to ask them to stop drinking coffee… Anxiety + Coffee = Worse Anxiety! ☕️😵‍💫 Coffee is linked with anxiety due to its ability to raise cortisol (our stress hormone) and put us in the fight or flight response.

Bet you didn’t know copper might be behind your Bet you didn’t know copper might be behind your meltdowns & anxiety.. 🤯 High copper (in particular free copper) is a huge problem with a lot of people with mental health issues. This is something I test all the time in clinic, and I’m glad I do because this is where we get those huge breakthrough results a lot of the time. Not only does high free copper cause these issues above, but it can also lead to low histamine which can cause a whole host of issues as well. Mental health had a lot to do with biochemistry, so let’s get yours in top notch condition! ✨
