Hey! It is Menopause Awareness Month coming up in October. If you are serious about menopause support in the workplace then now is a great time to open conversations, educate the teams and provide meaningful support for everyone. At Hormones on the Blink we don’t do awareness for awareness' sake. We build change. If you’re looking to do the same, lets chat.
From free resources to CPD accredited managers training, we cover everything you need to know.
Drop me an email at sarah@hormonesontheblink.com to find out more about how we can help.

To My Incredible Husband who had a special BIG birthday recently🎉🎂!
As I navigated the rollercoaster of premature menopause 22 years ago aged 29, I was single. The physical changes, the emotional storms, the moments I didn’t even recognise myself. The conversations over the next 7 years with boyfriends which needed to happen- I wont be able to naturally have children- the cringing and sheer deflation seeing their face change and becoming single again as it just ‘wasn’t for them’. Then, I met Richard. 19 years older than me what we laughed about after 3 weeks of dating still makes us smile now. I wanted to get the conversation out of the way and so it seemed did he as he had been worrying that I would want to start a family and in all honesty he didn’t really want to have anymore children at his age. A match made in heaven for us anyway. Through my physical and mental waves he has been a constant champion holding me when I have felt broken, listened when the words wouldn’t come easily- you know the thingy behind the whatsit🤣🤣! The fact he started to understand that makes me laugh out loud. You’ve stood by me through the sleepless nights, the tears, the frustration of not feeling like "me." You never once made me feel like a burden which is the word I often used. Instead, you made me feel seen, heard, and deeply loved. You come with me every month to co host the Hayling Island Menopause Café events to learn more and you have helped others for sure.
Menopause isn’t just a women’s journey, it’s a couple’s one, a family’s one. Richard has walked it with me with more grace, patience, and strength than I could’ve ever hoped for.
Our menopause hasn’t been easy. It came far too early, and with it, many unexpected challenges. A huge shock. But your unwavering support has been my anchor. You’ve reminded me that I am still powerful, still beautiful, still me.
Thank you for loving me through every version of myself. Happy birthday Mr T love Mrs T❤️

Very interesting.Trauma can also affect menopausal symptoms.

🧬 Trauma Can Echo Across Generations 🧠

New research reveals that childhood trauma doesn’t just affect the person who experiences it — it may also biologically impact their future children.

🔍 A study from the FinnBrain Birth Cohort found that men who endured high levels of early life stress had distinct epigenetic changes in their s***m — including altered DNA methylation and non-coding RNA expression.

🧠 These molecular changes were found in genes critical for brain development, such as CRTC1 and GBX2, suggesting that trauma may influence the brain biology of the next generation.

👉 This deepens our understanding of how early life adversity could be passed down biologically, highlighting the urgent need for early mental health support and trauma prevention.

🍃Day 5 and final day of my aromatherapy awareness week!🍃
Thankyou for joining me this week! Today I introduce Bergamot- I have many 'favourite' oils but Bergamot really is a favourite! For me, personally, grief comes in waves and some days feel calm, 'normal' and then out of nowhere, a memory or a song crashes in and I am pulled under again. It is not linear, and it does not ask for permission. I am learning to ride the waves, to breathe through them, and to be gentle with myself when they come🌊.One small thing that has helped me feel a little lighter is bergamot essential oil. Just breathing it in feels like a quiet exhale, a soft reminder that it is OK to feel and to heal. Maybe not so small eh!🍃💛

Thankyou again for joining me this week and please share to someone who will benefit and do visit my website for more information where you can also read my blogs-

🌿 Hot flushes-Aromatherapy! Day 4🌷

Adding to the benefits of Cypress, peppermint which we have previously mentioned, clary sage ( one of my faves ) , and lavender can provide cooling relief and help balance hormones naturally. Try diffusing or use a refreshing spritz to ease the wave. If you wanted to consider a therapy for this symptom and other unwanted consequences of menopause, head to www.mightymenopause.co.uk and read about the hormonal balancing body treatment using aromatherapy, massage and acupressure points. Great for stress relief too😊

Happy Thursday,
Best wishes, Sarah😊 x
