Notes from the middle
Nutrition . Autoimmunity . Yoga . & . Learning as I go
Hey you 🤍
So… I finally decided to go for it and start a blog.
It’s not quite at the place I imagined it would be when I first had this idea — but I realised waiting for the “perfect moment” was just another way of delaying something I’ve wanted to do for a long time.
And honestly? This feels like the right moment anyway.
As you might have seen on my Instagram updates, I’m currently studying for a Postgraduate Diploma in Clinical Nutrition, with plans to continue on to a Master’s, focusing specifically on autoimmunity. What I didn’t quite anticipate was my own autoimmunity kicking me in the shins, the butt, and a few other places… right in the middle of this journey.
So here we are — four months into an autoimmune flare that has taken over most of my body and, if I’m being honest, impacted many areas of my life. I’m currently dealing with an extended form of guttate psoriasis and doing everything I can to support healing and prevent it from progressing into a chronic condition.
This blog is going to be a space where I share real-life updates on what I’m doing to support my autoimmune health — lifestyle shifts, nutrition insights, nervous system care, and the not-so-glamorous parts too. I’ll also be weaving in interesting studies, little nuggets from my clinical nutrition studies, and of course some yoga, mindfulness, and grounding practices along the way.
The first proper blog post will be coming this weekend, and after that you can expect fairly regular (roughly weekly) updates. My hope is that if you’re navigating your own autoimmune or health journey, this space helps you feel a little less alone — and maybe offers a few gentle tools or perspectives that support you along the way.
Thank you for being here 🤍
