Are you at a point in your menopause transition where you're experiencing symptoms but they're manageable? This can be a good time to set some criteria for yourself. At what point would you honour yourself by getting supports that will allow you to thrive instead of survive. Yes, things are always changing in peri/menopause but when difficult symptoms like insomnia, weight gain, and issues with mood, are becoming increasingly present, you don't need to just wait it out.

Peri/menopause is so frustrating! And not just because of all the symptoms. Do you understand all these terms and contradictory perspectives and how they relate to menopausal hormone therapy? Sadly, you can't be sure that your health practitioner has all the answers either! Why is that? Because issues around women's health have been minimally researched, communicated, and addressed. If you want balanced and up-to-date information on addressing peri/menopausal symptoms get in touch.

I've been doing these newsletters for years and keep doing them mainly because I get really nice feedback from subscribers. I usually include some health news that you might have missed and a simple recipe with seasonal ingredients. I don't always post it on socials so if you want to get this each month, be sure to click the subscribe button.

I read Miranda July's All Fours this summer and it inspired me to write this list. What would you add?

C'est l'été! Amusez-vous bien!

Je me souviens quand j'ai soudainement remarqué, dans la quarantaine, que mes jolies petites taches de rousseur se transformaient en taches solaires pas si mignonnes - juste un des nombreux effets de la périménopause ! L’été est le moment idéal pour utiliser l’huile pour le visage T’es belle… vous vous demandez peut-être pourquoi mettriez-vous de l’huile sur votre visage alors que la crème solaire est si importante. La crème solaire est importante pendant la journée, mais l'utilisation d'un mélange d'huiles nourrissantes et adoucissantes le soir avant de se coucher aidera votre peau à se remettre des rayons UV nocifs. Ce mélange pour le visage regorge d’huiles de haute qualité connues pour être anti-inflammatoires et régénératrices cellulaires. Et ça sent tellement bon ! ***de

I can remember when I suddenly noticed in my 40s that my cute little freckles were turning into not-so-cute sunspots- just one of so many perimenopausal effects! Summer is a great time to use T’es belle facial oil… you might be asking why would you put oil on your face when sunscreen is so important. Sunscreen is important during the day but using a blend of nourishing and softening oils at night before bed will help your skin recover from damaging UV rays. This facial blend is full of high-quality oils known to be anti-inflammatory and cell regenerative. And it smells so good!
