Tips and tricks on how to feel nourished inside out

As you may have seen in the TUA newsletter, I’ll be embarking on a journey through Yunnan, China in September to go on guided mushroom walks.

There are a number of therapeutic mushrooms that originate from China, so fingers crossed I can find some wild medicinal mushrooms in the mountains.

Here’s a few sneak peak of what my little break might look like.

It’s that time of the year again my lovely people. If you’ve been meaning to book in or keen for a follow up, there’s only a few weeks left before I’m off on a little adventure 💗

30/04/2025

Hello my lovely people, I’ve been loving the work life balance away from socials and focusing on my offline clients in the past year.

I feel so lucky to have encountered so many lovely people in the clinic, and will continue to be working hard to help you with the complex health needs in our modern day life.

Just wanted to jump here to let you know that I’ll be doing some further studies while spending time with my mom in China for 3 weeks between May to June.

I’ll still be responding to emails sporadically during this time but won’t be as available as I usually am.

Thank you and take care 🫂

A much needed break 🧘‍♂️

10/11/2023

Hello my lovelies,

Just a quick heads up that I’ll be away for 4 weeks from Christmas to New Year.

I wanted to give everyone enough notice this year so that there is still plenty of time to book in your seasonal tune-ups or planned sessions.

If you’re in need of a session in the next month and there are no availabilities online, send me an email and I’ll see what I can do to squeeze you in!

For those of you who are curious, I’ll be doing lots of exploring in the countryside and natural landscapes of Japan. As well as going to China to visit my family 🤭

My hours are still the same before I head off.

🧧Year of the Rabbit Health and Prosperity Readings🧧

There are years when we have amazing opportunities and our bodies and mind are in harmony.

There are also years when things are a bit harder to achieve and our bodies feel more out of place.

IChing views these shifting waves of health and fortune in a 12-year cycle.

Through observations of interactions in nature, Chinese Sages found patterns that predict virtues, fortune and bodily constitution. It is much more than just superstition.

Keep reading for some additional readings of 2023:

People who are metal, earth or fire element, this is your year to shine! Take risks, and make big changes, great opportunities are coming your way!

If you are born in the year of the Rabbit, it is important to be cautious with your actions.
Keep being the amazing being you are and doing what you love to do, but don’t make major life decisions during this year as things may not work the same way you intend to.

Tip: Wear a red string around your waist to protect your body from the invasion of pathogens and negative Qi.

🏮Wishing everyone a Happy Lunar New Year 新年快乐🏮

🌤️ Slight Heat 小暑 Xiǎo Shǔ 🌤️

Melbourne didn’t disappoint and presented us with some nice warm weather as we enter this new seasonal point.

Traditionally this is when “Dog Days of Summer” begin. Dog Days represents the hottest and the most humid time of the year when our digestive organs Small Intestine and Spleen become compromised.

This is when we start to have difficulties with absorption, acne, allergies, hives, loose stools, irritable bowels, stomach flu, fatigue, cloudy mind, bloating and abdominal pain.

• Tips On Improving Digestive Functions •

🍯 Food that helps with absorption
Consume more foods that assist with absorption such as yam, coix seed, local honey, fermented foods and astragalus membranaceous.

😴 Take a nap during mid-day
Nights are shorter during this time of the year, so taking a mid-day night can help improve energy and heart function.

🧖🏻‍♀️ Cosmetic and body acupuncture
Acupuncture is a natural way to help boost the functions of the digestive organs and work on the imbalances in the body.

🕊️ I’m offering cosmetic acupuncture in both Richmond and Carlton North locations, it’s a great way to target stubborn acne and rejuvenate the skin. If you’d like to learn more about how this will assist your skin health, click on the link in bio 🕊️

⛱Beginning of Summer 立夏 Lì Xià⛱

There’s been some freaky weather in Melbourne lately as we enter a new seasonal point in the Southern Hemisphere.

The seasonal point we are in now is the “beginning of Summer”, which is one of the rainy seasons according to the 24 seasons in the lunar calendar. If you’ve been feeling more fatigued and more irritable, it’s all thanks to this seasonal change.

This season change can weaken our gut and our digestive organs.
The temperamental changes in weather means it’s hard to predict which duvet to use at night, leaving us either hot and irritated or cold and uncomfortable at night.

That’s why you’ve been experiencing more fatigue, foggy and cloudy mind, irritable, prone to worry, abdominal pain, diarrhoea, constipation and just feeling like your tank is empty.

• Tips on Gut healing •

🫒 Incorporating more fermented foods
Fermented foods like sauerkraut help to protect the gut lining and introduce healthy bacteria into the gut.

🥗 Limit Cold and Raw Food and Drinks
It takes more effort for the digestive system to convert cold food to our body temperature, so warm foods can help give our digestive system a well-deserved break.

☀️ Enjoy exercise or walks in the Sun
Soaking up vitamin D can actually help with your mood and energy.

A lot of you have asked for this post to be a permanent one so here it is 💖

I’ve added some extra info in here to help you understand how sleep and our dreams can be related to our lovely heart and liver organ.

Now we’ve reached the middle of winter in the Southern Hemisphere, I’m finding it hard to get out of bed and leave the warm cozy covers.

It is even worse if you have cold hands and feet, and sometimes wearing warm fluffy socks is just not enough.

That’s because our body is very smart in conserving the most vital body parts when it is not functioning optimally.

The blood and energy are directed towards the centre of the body where all vital organs are located, leaving our hands and feet feeling cold.

🙋🏻‍♀️ If the 3 types of cold hands and poor circulations conditions are different to what you experience, or if you’d like to know more about how to relieve your symptoms, send me an E-mail or book an appointment with me through the link in my BIO.
