It can be really hard to embrace winter, especially when it’s as cold as it has been this year.
It is also challenging when our physical health is impacted by so many colds and flu going around.
These simple tips are more reminders of some of the things you can do to boost immunity, protecting yourselves and each other from illness.
If you have any tips, please share them below 👇
Your weekly reminder: rediscover a balanced relationship with food, where you listen to your body’s needs and embrace all foods without guilt.
Recently, I experienced a period of burnout, luckily I was aware of the warning signs and became able to make changes to reduce the severity of the burnout.
Recognising these signs is the first step towards addressing it. If you are experiencing these warning signs, there are steps to take to reverse it, and it is time to seek support and make lifestyle changes to improve overall wellbeing.
Simple changes like self care, setting boundaries, and seeing professional help can contribute to managing and preventing it. Reach out in my DMs for support!
Listen to my podcast episode “choked up, face down, burnt out” on
A post I misread today meant I shared some inaccurate information that perpetuates a world of restriction and diet culture that I do not subscribe to.
So… I remade it to what I actually meant!
Eating healthily is actually just eating normally, but most people think eating ‘healthily’ is to be dieting or restricting.
Your body will not change from one weekend of enjoying chocolate, hot cross buns and other festive foods with the ones you love.
Take this long weekend to have a good rest, eat well, and look after yourself.
This weekend does not mean the new diet starts on Tuesday, it’s simply a matter of going back to what you did before and maybe with a few more mini eggs leftover!
Love,
Matilda
An ode to summer…
You were hot 🔥 scary at times.
More crispy veg, and juicy fruit.
Salty swims and icey water.
Ready for the cool change, wooly jumpers, and hot broths again.
Hey 👋🏽 it’s time for a reintroduction.
I’m Matilda (she/her) a practicing holistic nutritionist who is registered with
I work in a non-diet environment and believe in health at every size (HAES) and I help people to nourish themselves when they might not know how or have a difficult relationship with food. I believe that everyone should feel good in the body they have, and I am against the narrative that being in a larger body is ‘unhealthy’ - the size of your body does not determine your health.
I also co-host a podcast called and we just launched season 3, we talk all things, body image, eating disorder and food psychotherapy.
I also am training as a peer mentor, helping people see that recovery from an eating disorder is possible, and I have lived experience with an eating disorder.
In my spare time, I love to cook, spend time hiking, reading, spending time with my friends and being a homebody.
I am available for one-on-one consultations both in Naarm/Melbourne and online. I offer free meet and greet calls which can be booked via my website and the link in my bio.
With love,
Matilda 🤎
Back to the office this week, both physically working in the office at Eating Disorders Victoria and back seeing clients online and F2F.
I think even though I’m sharing all these yum meals, it’s important to know that there weren’t all amazing days, I had covid, sinus infection, there were mega storms and mould issues back home.
I had to say no to a lot, rest, and recover, whilst being back in my hometown, it was a lot. But it was also, the best time, it gave me what I needed.
In a world where people are losing their lives to a horrific genocide happening in Palestine, I am grateful for my job, my home, my health and for the community that surrounds me. I hope to see more voices from this wellness community talking about other world issues, and I’m grateful to other practitioners who are doing their part. We are a very privileged community and we should use this privilege for the better.
With love,
Matilda
Free Palestine 🇵🇸
That’s a wrap folks!
I’ve been quiet on here because honestly, the last part of this year has been full on, moving house, starting two new projects, a new job, and getting sick. It’s been a big push and I think a lot of others are feeling this.
But there have been so many highlights to what has been my absolute favourite year so far. Especially in my career.
🎧 starting a podcast with practically a stranger, who has become someone so special to me, .counselling I’m so proud of our little podcast - taking a break has been so good. But we also launched and dropped 22 episodes this year!
Taking time off in the middle of the year to hike the Camino with my mum, explore Scotland, Greece, Italy and England with my family was incredible. A true delight and so special for my personal growth. Spending time with Liv and friends who live overseas was amazing.
Coming back and starting kitchen work in the pantry at having so much creative freedom to bring to this project has been amazing and I’m so grateful. And I can’t wait to see what the new year will bring for the pantry.
Starting a new role as a peer mentor in training at is a true dream come true and I’m so excited to see how this work develops my own relationship to eating disorder recovery and how I can better support people through their journey.
And finally, moving back to the city and practicing at .psychology seeing such an amazing range of lovely clients, people who are at all different phases of their health journey who I truly am so proud of. I applaud all of the wonderful work everyone has done this year.
Thankyou so much for all the support on this little platform, I’m taking a break from work for some rest and fun, but I’ll probably still post because I love to share food 😂❤️
Lots of love ❤️
Matilda

The past few weeks I have been horrified by what’s happening in Gaza, and my heart has been breaking for those who are in pain, distress, and the thousands of people who have lost their lives.
I have been so aware of my privilege in this moment. I can choose to disengage or click off a post. And in saying that, what I can do to show my support is use my work to bring people peace, I want to offer some nervous system support to those who are feeling the weight of it too.
❤️❤️❤️
So proud of Sues Pantry. We’re here every Saturday and Sunday with beautiful local products, and take home meals 🍲 🍕 🍝

Last week was and I was sick with the flu! However, I wanted to share some information that might be useful to my community.
🌸This area of work is so near to my heart, my friends and family know I care a lot about this work.
🌸 Something I myself have struggled with in the past.
🌸included are some journal prompts that I have found helpful in my personal healing journey and in my clients journey.
🌸 My DMs are always open!
I harvested some chat potatoes from the garden! They probably have a few more weeks to go in the ground but I was so excited!
I made a chicken stew with potatoes from the garden and tomatoes from our Wednesday preserving day. Editing the next episode of - coming this Tuesday!
Hosting dinner parties is one of my favourite things, everyone brought a salad or veggie dish and I made prawns with a zesty, herby dressing for dipping. We finished the night with tea and cake and games.
Summer feeds, eating for health, for joy and for me this year ❤️
Updates: after practicing for the past 6 months I’ve decided to increase my initial consultation price by $10, it’s a big decision however I want to make my consults as affordable as possible, my prices will stay the same for concessions.
Any initial consults booked this month will remain the original price, and if anyone wants to book in with my original price I will honour that.
