❤️When I receive a testimonial it leaves me with such joy and a beautiful warm feeling.

My mum used to say I shouldn't brag about how good anything I did was - sadly I can't help but tell anyone about the wonders of the natural remedies that I use.

So many of my clients come to me feeling, sad, traumatised and in desperate need of some natural help and healing.

🥲The lady who sent me this testimonial was feeling just as above, utterly devastated after a failed relationship that she have given her all to. She had been punished for no reason and was have some very sad and worrying thoughts.

🍀This is what she sent me - she is now off to India for 2 months to carry on with her yoga training and coming back to continue with her studies - feeling positive and in a brilliant place.

💕"Ros is lovely soul who pours her nurturing energy into the work she does. I’m really glad I found her she has helped me navigate some really tricky situations in my life. She advocates for your best interests and pushes you to find your voice and stand up for yourself. Thank you, Ros for all that you do. Would definitely recommend! 🤍✨🙏"

These words fill my heart with joy - job satisfaction is overwhelming. When you can bring a smile back to life - it all makes sense.💕

💕Raising a child with ADHD, autism, or sensory challenges comes with unique joys and challenges.

❗️Often, emotional outbursts, frustration, and overwhelm take center stage. Could a natural solution make a difference?

Over the past 2 years, I’ve worked with 25 families and 30 children, using Bach Flower Remedies to ease the emotional challenges of ADHD and neurodiverse tendencies.

These remedies work gently, addressing the traumas, frustrations, and guilt that can accompany such conditions.

🌸Star of Bethlehem has been especially useful in healing trauma which has occurred so often - whether from birth or other life events.
🌼For feelings of frustration and impatience, Impatiens helps children find calm.
🌺In moments of overwhelm, Elm provides support, while Cherry Plum assists in balancing emotions during outbursts.
🏵For children who feel guilt after lashing out, Pine gently eases their emotional burden.

💕Parents have reported incredible transformations: reduced meltdowns, smoother school transitions, and happier, calmer children. One mother shared how her son attended and enjoyed his birthday party for the first time!

On Christmas day I was reduced to tears by the joy that my families were experiencing for the first time! Christmas days all together with siblings playing together - Never happened before.

While the remedies may not be the only solution, they can provide relief and emotional balance, creating a calmer environment for children and their families.

❗Big emotions can be tough for our little ones!

Their brains are not built to cope with them until they are in their early 20's.

Our children have to deal with a huge amount nowadays, relationships, society, social media, parental breakups, trauma either recent or historic.

👉So many of our children are being diagnosed with ADHD, Austism and other societal problems and sadly the structures do not cater for their needs.

Here’s how Bach Flower Remedies gently support children through anxiety, fear, and overwhelm.

Children feel emotions deeply, and sometimes they struggle to process them. Bach Flower Remedies offer gentle support:

🌼 Mimulus – for everyday fears (like the dark, school, or being alone).
🌼 Walnut – for life changes (starting school, moving house, or new siblings).
🌼 Aspen – for unexplained fears or anxiety.
🌼 Cherry Plum – for emotional outbursts and tantrums.
🌼 Star of Bethlehem - for trauma - used often with children displaying signs of ADHD, Autism or processing difficulties.

🌳These natural remedies work by restoring emotional balance, helping children feel safe and secure, calm and in control, in most homes they are unaware of taking the remedies.

They show in very subtle ways and can take months to show their full benefit, however the end results are transformational. We have happier children and happier siblings and much happier parents - everyone wins.

Do you think that your little people could benefit from these 💛

🍀Navigating Menopause Naturally: My Journey and what worked for me

⭐️Menopause is finally a less taboo subject now, yet many women still suffer in silence. The pandemic, with its shortage of HRT products, pushed many women to explore natural ways to manage symptoms. I was forced to find a natural solution although my journey started 30 years ago.

⚡️I started my menopause at just 33 due to emergency surgery following years of ovarian cysts. Back then, HRT was the go-to solution, and I took it without question.

🌟I felt amazing—until six months later when I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I had to stop the HRT immediately and found myself dealing with menopause symptoms without guidance or support.

🙂It was a lonely, difficult road, and my family and mental health suffered. I was also a single Mum as well and working full time - an interesting place to be.

👉Fast forward to today, and we have so much more knowledge at our fingertips. If you're navigating menopause or preparing for it, I want to share what worked for me—natural remedies that can help you feel more balanced and in control.

There needs to be a proviso - this does not mean that I am against HRT - I would have taken if I could have done.
✅1. Nutrition Matters
Prioritise calcium & vitamin D for bone health.
Eat fresh fruits, vegetables, and whole foods.
Avoid trigger foods like alcohol, spicy dishes, and sugar, which can worsen symptoms.
Maintain a healthy weight—it’s tough but makes a difference.
✅2. Exercise for Strength & Stability
Walking, yoga, and pilates help maintain bone density and reduce stress.
Weight-bearing exercises support long-term health.
Ask your GP for a bone density scan to stay ahead of osteoporosis risks.
✅3. Key Supplements for Menopause
Black Cohosh – Helps with hot flushes (but give it time—one month isn’t enough!).
Fish oil – Supports brain health & reduces inflammation.
Linseed & Vitamin D – Essential for bone density & mood balance.
✅4. Bach Flower Remedies for Emotional Well-being
Menopause isn’t just physical; it impacts your emotions, too. These Bach remedies were a key part of my journey:
🌿 Walnut – Shields you from emotional overwhelm.
🌿 Impatiens – Helps with frustration & irritability.
🌿 Clematis – Clears brain fog, improving focus.
🌿 Holly – Eases anger & restores inner peace.
🌿 Star of Bethlehem – Helps with early menopause trauma.
🌿 Mimulus – Reduces fear of aging & the unknown.
🌿 Larch – Restores confidence when self-doubt creeps in.

💕Your Menopause, and your way
There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to menopause. HRT might work for some but not for others. If you’re looking for natural solutions, I’d love to help you explore options that make this transition smoother.

🩷October is Breast Cancer Awareness month, but we need to be vigilante throughout the year. and that isn't just women - but can apply to men as well!!!

❗Barely a week goes past without me hearing of someone who has been affected by this disease, and I was unfortunate enough to be diagnosed with it in the early 1990's, I was lucky - I had a lumpectomy and then radiotherapy for several weeks!

However, at the time I was a single mum and living alone with my daughter in Brighton and my holistic knowledge was zero and I was also financially constrained as I was the sole breadwinner!!

Breast cancer did also of course bring on a full blown medical menopause - of which there was Zero discussion.

🙃The stress levels were high, and my diagnosis followed 2 years of gynae complications and surgeries. I remain convinced that stress and trauma are part of the cause of cancer.

I am thankful everyday that I am here to tell the story and to have been blessed ever since.

😪One thing I found tough back then, the knowledge of Cancer was not as it is now, and in general a diagnosis of Cancer meant you weren't likely to live long. For me the toughest life lesson was that so many people didn't understand. and the people who I considered friends just totally disappeared!!!

💕People crossed the road not to talk to me, didn't phone or come and see me and those who did often didn't know what to say. At the time it was devastating as I didn't really understand why, but a lovely Macmillan nurse explained the possibilities and this was quite common. She explained the fear held by others as to what I may have said.💕

This story is to hopefully explain that whilst naturally the sufferers are dealing with their illness the carers and people around them are often managing their own emotions too.

❗Often these are unseen and untreated. We need to be very aware of how are loved ones are coping with our illnesses and problems as they rarely get the care of consideration they need.❗

Anyway to all my friends and family be reassured that if you are struggling with the illness of a loved one, my door is always open to talk and the message will always be answered.
Take care x

😀Oh my goodness what a beautiful day!!!!

It all started with a fabulous Corporate Ladies Club meeting at East Ashling Vineyard such a fantastic occasion.

Thank you very much Vicky Booker and Gail Gardner for your enlightening discussions. Thank you, Gill and Lisa H***e for your planning.

After some beautiful conversations with some incredible business women Lindsey Balchin Caroline Knowles-Ley Alannah Jeffries Hilary Lewis 💻♣️ Louise Turner Elaine Crees and so many more.

I did a quick dash into Chichester for what was an incredible event.

Sometime ago Katie Wilson and I put a date in the diary to tell her amazing staff at Blue Spire Accountants & Financial Planners all about the wonderful world of Bach Flower Remedies and by Ros.

Katie is renowned for looking after her staff and ensuring that they are cared for. She so highly believes in the fact that happy staff make good workers - and it is wonderful to hear.

I spent the afternoon here talking remedies, making bespoke remedies but it was a time to enable members of staff to feel supported by their employer - that in itself was just incredible.

It was a beautiful afternoon of so much joy. Thank you Katie Wilson for your kindness and forethought.

❗In the weeks leading up to Bonfire night please let's spare a thought for the others who experience trauma from fireworks.❗

👉We are always looking to help our animals but we should also be aware of the help that others may need as a result of this extremely noisy time of year.

❓So let's look at those who suffer, the small children who are in bed when the fireworks start, waken traumatised by the loud bangs! We can help relieve their trauma with the Rescue Remedy for Kids but they are then awake and everyone has a disturbed night.

❓The children and young people who are suffering from ADHD or other sensory processing problems - these young people need support and comfort at this time of year. If you would like fireworks maybe find some silent ones - they are just what is needed.

❓A former veteran of the Iraq war, who is suffering from PTSD and who is still experiencing from the memories of his time in the forces, told me that the sounds of explosions create sheer terror in his head😩 He explained to me that the sound of the fireworks sent him under the bed even now after all this time.❗

👉The fireworks bring back memories of a horrific time and create massive
trauma.👈

❓The elderly person who is living at home alone and suffering from fear of the bombs falling in the past World wars. Another person sadly feeling very traumatised.

So, whilst I appreciate that fireworks are beautiful and can appear stunning in the night sky, the noise that comes with them is responsible for more trauma than we are even aware of.

❤If you know someone who dreads this time of year, or are related to someone who feels the same way, maybe I can help ease some of the trauma with the wonderful natural flower remedies. They have shown in the past to prove very effective at calming the fears and past anxieties.

🌿My posts over the next few days will be relating to these fears and the trauma. Please let's talk if you would like my help.

There are times even in the world of a therapist when life can become quite overwhelming.🙃

I have recent taken on a project – it’s only for a week but I am feeling the pressure and need it done by the next Monday – whilst combining work and home as well I am wondering if I have taken on too much!!

😳When you work on your own and live in your little office most of the day only venturing out to go to the loo or get some lunch there are times when it seems quite overpowering.

The social media posts don’t move much, the new clients don’t seem to appear as much as the last few weeks, the grandchildren are away – I miss them, and I feel one degree under – it takes some shifting…….

❓Until Monday morning arrives and having let the workman into my daughters house, I come back to my clarinet teacher!! I have been dreading this – not played a note for 3 weeks, it’s been repaired and we have been away. I am thinking I am not going to be able to play and maybe I should just give up.

❤To my utter belief I picked it up and played it straight off and played the pieces she asked me to play and she said it was utterly amazing – I cannot tell you how my confidence rose and how incredible I felt.

I started to learn back at the beginning of June, so I suppose I have had 10 lessons – we did it as part of Michael Mosley's – Just One thing project – to learn something new – and this has been huge.

Apparently, I am not working on Grade 3 pieces – having last played it when I was 15 – a very long time ago!! Her words were that it was beautiful as we played our first duet together – I was astonished as to where it all came from – just goes to show the grey cells are still working.☺️

I then had Hormones on the Blink catch up meeting which for me was very positive indeed and again another boost.😀

And then went to meet another solopreneur for lunch and a work chat all in all it was just what the doctor ordered, and I am feeling so much better.

Also had some photos and a video of the grandchildren and day 1of project has gone well.

I also had this beautiful dog to keep me company in the office – curled up under my desk and popped his head up mid-morning to say hello.🐶

💕So if you are having a down moment – lesson from me is doing something different – my Monday has been great and when I practice the clarinet again this morning it will be even better. Happy Tuesday!

🎆As we fast approach the onset of Autumn and Firework season I am looking at how the remedies can help your pets, especially if your dog is new to you or young.

🐶My key thought is that your dog will be guided by you and take its lead from you.

😌 If you are calm and confident they will be the same.

👉If you panic when the fireworks start then your dog will only panic more. They look to you for guidance and confidence. You need to stay calm and ignore them, I would encourage drawing the curtains and possibly turn the TV on, and as much as possible ignore the noise. If your pet can see you are in control, then they will take their confidence from you.

👉If however your dogs displays signs of trauma, I would recommend that you allow them to pace, hide if they want to and if they find a place to settle then do not disturb them. If they hide under the bed or behind the sofa – then leave them there.

👉If they need extra support, then leave some of your clothes there. You may want to cuddle and hold them but if this is not comfortable for them then please don’t restrain them.

❤The biggest thing you can do for your dogs, during this firework season, is to maintain your calm and cool, they will follow you as the leader. It is fine to cuddle them but equally it is important to leave them be should they prefer.

💕If you tend to be anxious at this time too then some Rescue Remedy may be good for you also, your dog will smell your anxiety and sadly this will not help the situation.

If you would like further information as to how the remedies can help your animals then please let me know through my website on the link below. www.remediesbyros.com
