🌿We often spend so much time anticipating the worst that its easy to forget something really important:

The best is just as possible.
Honestly, it is, even if your head tells you otherwise.

And here’s the bit we all need reminding of:

🌿You can’t control every outcome.
But you can control the story you tell yourself while you’re waiting.
And that story can either calm your nervous system…
or send it into overdrive.

So next time your mind starts running away with itself, come back to this.
Take a breath.....
Choose the happy, motivating, hopeful story.

Have a wonderful weekend!

✨️Save this for the days when your brain feels loud and your hormones feel heavier than usual.

🌿 A local school has officially approved its first Menopause Policy and it feels like a huge, long-overdue shift in the right direction for supporting women in the workplace.

This news genuinely made me smile😊

I was recently invited to review a new Menopause policy and strengthen it with additional information, practical guidance and clear support pathways, helping to make sure it isn’t just a document that sits in a folder, but something that genuinely supports the women who need it.

For far too long, menopause has been minimised, misunderstood, or brushed off as “just part of getting older.”
When a school chooses to take it seriously, it sends a very powerful message:

♀️ Women deserve workplaces where they’re supported, valued and understood, not left to quietly cope alone.

A huge thank you to ***** a wonderful lady for championing this and pushing it forward (you know who you are✨️)

If your school or organisation is ready to create or update its menopause or wellbeing policies, or if you’d like Stress management & Menopause workshops that give women practical, everyday tools to cope, I’m always happy to help.

♀️How Peri-Menopause Affects PMDD

PMDD on its own can be exhausting. The mood dips, the irritability and feeling like your emotions are running the show for a few days each month.

When peri-menopause arrives, things can feel very different and often much harder to manage.

Here’s why:

During peri-menopause, oestrogen and progesterone start to fluctuate more unpredictably. Instead of the usual monthly rise and fall, your hormones can spike, drop suddenly, or stay low for longer.

For women with PMDD, these hormonal shifts affect the part of the brain responsible for emotional regulation and stress response.

This means:

Mood swings can become sharper and more intense

You might feel low or tearful for longer

Irritability can feel harder to control

Anxiety levels may rise.

Your usual coping strategies may not work as well as they used to

It’s not that you’re doing anything wrong. Your system is simply under more pressure, and your brain is responding to the hormonal instability.

🌿Where CBH (Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy) Can Help

CBH supports both the mind and nervous system. It helps you understand what’s happening, recognise triggers earlier, and stay calmer during hormonal changes.

In sessions, we work on:

Calming the stress response so emotions don’t spiral

Managing anxious or intrusive thoughts that feel bigger during PMDD

Building simple habits to support emotional resilience

Reframing the self-criticism that often appears during the hormonal fluctuations

Creating steady routines that help balance mood and reduce overwhelm

🌿CBH helps you feel more grounded and less at the mercy of your hormones and emotions. Instead of bracing for the worst each month, you can start to feel back in control.

🌃When the nights draw in, our bodies naturally slow down but our minds often don’t get the memo. Here’s why anxiety feels louder in winter, and how to find steadiness again.

🍃🍂🍁As the trees shed their last leaves and the nights have drawn in, anxiety can quietly start to ramp up.
The darker months can make us feel lonelier, less in control, and wondering where our sunny disposition and inner calm have gone.

Our sleep and serotonin levels dip with the lack of daylight, so our nervous system ends up working much harder just to keep us balanced. Add the daily demands of work, family, and the run-up to Christmas, and it’s no surprise many of us feel tense, teary, or flat.

If that’s you right now, try slowing everything down for a moment.

🌿 Step outside for natural light each morning this gently resets your mood and energy levels.
📵 Leave your phone closed until you’ve showered and eaten. Give your mind a quiet start to the day.
🌿 In the evening, set a 10-minute calming routine, maybe while removing your makeup, doing gentle stretches, lighting a candle, or sipping something warm.
As you do, look in the mirror and remind yourself:
“I’m good enough. I’m going to prioritise myself.”

These small pauses teach your body that calm is still possible, even in the darker months.

Are you going at full pelt and struggling to slow down? What can you do today to help yourself?
✨️If this resonates you know what to do!!

🤯 Brain fog can feel like you’re swimming underwater, everything is a bit blurry, muffled, and just that little bit out of reach.

Today I managed, in the space of about five minutes, to lose my bank card… and then find it again. I literally have no recollection of taking it out of my purse or putting it on the conveyor. Then I got back in the car, started reversing… and heard a huge bang 💥

Luckily, a kind man was waiting for his wife to reverse out of a tight space and was simply warning me. I hadn’t hit him, or the car PHEW!!!

But still that shock goes right through you.

Now, if you're a woman dealing with anxiety or hormone-driven overwhelm, something like this could be enough to send you straight into a downward spiral:

“What’s wrong with me?”
“Why am I like this?”
“I can’t cope.”

I’ve had those days too.

🌿But today? I took a breath, reminded myself that my brain is under a lot of hormonal pressure, and chose the gentle option.

I decided it was probably safer to head home, grab the dogs and walk it off in the sunshine.
Fresh air, movement, calm. A reset.

This is the quiet power of Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy.
Not pretending everything’s fine… but learning how to spot when your nervous system is creeping into overwhelm before it takes over.
And giving yourself a soft way out, rather than spiralling into panic or self-criticism.
Shifting your thoughts before they drag you under.
And giving yourself practical tools to bring your nervous system back down again.

If brain fog, memory slips, or those “what am I doing?” moments are tipping you over the edge lately… you’re not losing it.
Your system is under pressure..

And you CAN feel calmer, clearer and more in control again.

✨️If this resonated, share it. Another woman may also need this today.

And if you want help finding your calm again, you know where I am. 🌿

🚺During peri-menopause our hormones can cause anxiety to spike and all we want is to feel calm and assured. When our mind is cluttered and over run with thoughts, we feel the physical symptoms accompanying this, perhaps a tight chest, clenching our jaw, stiff shoulders, a headache, an iffy tummy. Feeling calm seems like an unrealistic goal.

I want you to know this doesn’t always have to be the case. You CAN change, you've simply been powering through running on fumes for far too long. Your nervous system is stuck in 'fight or flight' mode and has forgotten what feeling safe and grounded feels like.

This is where I can work with you to help your body remember how to do this.

🌿Through Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy (CBH), I gently help you quieten your mind and calm your body so they start working together again.

You will learn how to:
Catch unhelpful thought looping patterns
Soothe your nervous system with breathwork, mindfulness and relaxation
training to ease the physical tension that keeps your body on high alert.
Rebuild trust in yourself and the decisions you make at a pace that feels manageable.

Each week, things start to feel softer. You can think more clearly. You sleep better. Your shoulders drop and stomach relax.
You begin to feel calmer, clearer and back in control.

✨ If this resonates and you’re ready for some support, I’d love to help.

🌿 Reflection Theme: What Do I Actually Need Right Now?

As women, we often push our own needs to the bottom of the pile.
Telling ourselves, “I’ll do it later,” or “I’ll be fine,” when deep down we're not fine, we may try and appear 'together' on the outside, but in reality we're struggling with tears, brain fog or irrational bursts of anger.

Tonight, I'd like you to take a quiet moment and ask yourself:

💭 What have I needed lately but talked myself out of asking for?
💭 What emotional needs have been quietly unmet? Is it some rest, affection, time alone, or simply space to breathe?
💭 What small thing could I do tomorrow that would actually help me?

Write down one simple need, it does n't matter if it's emotional, physical or practical and make it your non-negotiable for the week ahead.

✨ Monday Intention

I’m allowed to have needs.
This week, I’ll listen to them and meet them without feeling guilt or needing an apology.

You’re not needy. You’re a beautiful kind & caring woman and it's important to reserve some of that kindness for yourself!

🌿 Always remember your needs matter, even if no one else is meeting them right now.

05/11/2025

Feeling calm and overcoming anxiety doesn’t happen overnight and it’s not about “never feeling stressed again.” It’s small shifts that work towards positive changes, they can look like:

Catching an anxious spiral before it runs away with you
Taking a grounding breath before a big meeting
Trusting yourself to handle things without overthinking every detail
A teacher pausing for a breath before walking into a noisy classroom
A carer giving themselves permission to step outside for two minutes of fresh air
A retail worker choosing not to replay a difficult customer interaction on a loop.

The pressure to be switched “on” all the time makes being calm feel impossible and these may seem like small things, but they’re powerful. Each one is a step away from anxiety and overwhelm, and a step towards your inner calm and confidence.

With the right tools........CBH strategies, nervous system regulation, and hormone-aware support becomes a daily practice, not a distant dream.

🌿This is exactly what I help women create through Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy. Small, practical steps that build lasting confidence and peace of mind.

What’s one small calm habit you’d love to bring into your workday?
