👆🏻 Understanding the spiritual alchemy of menopause changes everything.

The part I am most excited about?

That your physical experience of menopause, and how intense it is, is IMPROVED when you are more curious and open to how it might pan out for you and how you might emerge from it.

A positive, curious mindset = a more positive, easier menopause.

How do you get a positive, curious mindset?

You find out the long forgotten spiritual meaning of menopause.

And you understand the emotional processed involved and how to navigate them.

𝗦𝘄𝗲𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘁, 𝘆𝗼𝘂’𝗿𝗲 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗯𝗿𝗼𝗸𝗲𝗻.

The world we’re living in is.
Utterly broken.

I believe that the lack of strong, fearless, heart-led female representation has been part of (mainly?) why it’s so broken.

As women though, we are battling with centuries old conditioning, family and ancestral wounding to play small, to be sweet and nice, not take up space and not make a fuss.

Am I wrong?!

In order to be that strong, fearless badass, we need to overcome that conditioning and wounding.

Even in 2025, we are still very much recovering our worth as women. Several hundred years ago livestock held more value, and for a time we weren’t even thought to have souls. I mean…

We have been hugely discredited in a number of ways, and in different ways around the world. We have been subtly and forcibly muscled out and it’s time we muscle ourselves back in.

We can do that at any point of our lives, and it’s never too late to start.

I also think that there are some specific points of our lives when the invitation to overcome is stronger: becoming a mother, losing someone dear to us and perimenopause.

Give this post a heart if you agree 💖💓

Sometimes you don’t need the full, in-depth support but someone to hear you, see your situation and help you navigate you through with clarity and direction. Sometimes you need to keep it simple.

Simple, clear, effective guidance rooted in clinical experience and lived experience.

DM me to book or find the link in my bio and website on the consultation page www.thenutritionalbean.com

These stand alone breakthrough sessions last 60 minutes and cost £99.

Note: I will not be offering highly specific supplements or testing advice in these sessions. That requires a more in depth, focused session.

Hello! I’m Bean.

I’m a 45-year old dreamy, sensitive, heart-led woman doing her best to navigate life.

I use a combination of grounded, evidence-based nutritional therapy, with integrative hypnosis, and metaphysics, to guide women safely through perimenopause.

Using an integrated mind-body-spirit approach is incredibly important to me. It becomes clearer every day that focusing on the physical body alone, while hugely valuable, only takes you so far. And at the same time, focusing only on the spiritual side of things isn’t great either- it’s all about having a truly balanced approach.

I’m in early perimenopause myself and so far I’m finding it ok - so I should hope with what my job is! I’ve had to double down on my sleep hygiene and be very careful of coffee and alcohol, and be kind to myself when I notice my sensitivity feeling really heightened.

Personally, touch wood with the physical changes of perimenopause being ok so far, the challenges have been more energetic and spiritual:
Historically I’ve been very disconnected from my own power and voice, from knowing it’s legitimate and has value. Yet gently, gradually, pealing back the limiting beliefs, releasing old patterning, and staring head on at past wounds is enabling me to reconnect with it.

I need to, because I have women to support!

What drives me is the idea that helping women to feel better and more whole in their body, heart and soul, is a little contribution that I can make to creating a world that doesn’t stand for homophobia, racism, discrimination, transphobia, ableism, extractivism, speciesism, patriarchy, capitalism, hatred and division. My little bit is helping women to find the connection and ease in their body, and the strength in their heart and soul that enables them to go out and be the change that the world needs so badly right now.

I offer personalised 1:1 consultations, talks, workshops and group programs and you can DM me anytime.

Too many of us are continuing to spread ourselves thin.

Not realising that our capacity is changing and we can’t keep being all things to all people. (Tbh we shouldn’t be doing that anyway.)

We need to recognise how precious our energy is becoming in our 40’s and early 50’s.

Recognise that we need to start being MUCH more discerning about how we spend it our precious energy.

It’s our energy, not anyone else’s.
Nobody else has a claim to it but us.

Don’t spend it on people pleasing.
Don’t spend it looking after everyone else.
Don’t spend it on things that make you want to die a little bit inside.

Spend it on holding more boundaries.
Spend it on what is most important to YOU.
Spend it not on a maybe, but a F**K YES.

What’s your F**K YES?

Getting out in the sun has so many benefits for our perimenopausal metabolic health!

To generate vitamin D, you need to expose your limbs to the sun between 11am ish and 3pm ish for 10-15 mins BEFORE putting on sunscreen, between May and Sept when the angle of the sun is just so.

Be sensible, don’t take this as permission to fry your skin and get burned.

This means that between Sept and May when the angle of the sun ISN’T just so, you’re vitamin D production goes way down if not stops altogether.

Which is interesting because for those of us not so close to the equator, it looks as if we should be topping up our vitamin D during the summer, and stopping in the winter to encourage melatonin production.
I find that really interesting 🤓🤓

Have you noticed that being out in the sun reduces your appetite?

And that the sun lifts your mood (surely that’s a given).

And have you noticed that not getting enough daylight affects how well you sleep? I’m sure you have noticed that getting crap sleep affects your mood and changes what you want to eat (for me, it’s more chocolate, honey, dates, bread…). Poor sleep also increases inflammation, which makes EVERYTHING in perimenopause worse.

So my love, get out there in the sun and bask in it for a bit. ☀️🌞

Remember, it’s not just about your weight. It’s how you feel in yourself, your mental clarity, energy, motivation, sleep quality.

Much love
Bean x

Metabolism Myths:

We ladies are eating and moving through our days under great illusion about how our bodies work, even before perimenopause begins.

We cannot override our metabolism with our willpower.
Eating less and moving more might seem logical, but you’re not a simple machine into which you put fuel at one end and get a predictable output at the other.

You are not a 25-year old man in a metabolism study.

You cannot fast your way to a faster metabolism in your 40’s. In fact you might make things a whole load worse.

You are a MUCH more beautifully, finely tuned and complex being whose metabolism is influenced by everything from your menstrual cycle to whether you feel safe in your relationship.

Understanding how your body actually works, and how it’s changing, is one of the most liberating and self compassionate things you can do for yourself.

It transforms everything.

When you understand that you’re operating under different rules and you know what they are, solutions open up, and you know you aren’t broken.

It’s biology, not a personal failure.
