Today is World Menopause Day 🤍

This year, the International Menopause Society has chosen Chronic Pain at Midlife as its theme- and it’s an important one.

Aching joints, stiff muscles, sore shoulders and changing headache patterns are among the most commonly reported experiences of the menopause transition. Yet so many women are told it’s “just getting older” and are left to quietly put up with it.

Oestrogen plays a role in regulating inflammation, supporting connective tissue and muscle, and influencing how your brain processes pain. When levels shift, your body can feel it.

Aches in midlife are common. But common doesn’t mean you simply have to accept them.

This week I’ll be sharing what can help. If you’d like to talk through what you’re experiencing, book a free 15-minute discovery call- [link in bio].

Please share this post with a woman in your life who might need it today 💚🌷

When sleep unravels in midlife, everything feels harder - your mood, your patience, your cravings, your aches.

My new Wellness Hub article explores why menopause changes your sleep and what you can do about it:

🌙 Why progesterone, oestrogen and cortisol all play a part
🌙 Why so many women wake at 3am
🌙 When broken sleep could be something to check with your GP
🌙 Practical ways to stay cool and settle your nervous system
🌙 Herbs traditionally used to support restful sleep

Rest is Medicine 🌙

If you know me, you will know that I firmly believe this and am a strong advocate for it!

Sleep rarely comes back by force- but it often returns when your evenings become softer, your body cooler, and your nervous system feels safe enough to let go.

Swipe through for a gentle evening rhythm you can start tonight. You don’t need to do all of it. Choose one or two steps and build from there.

If you’d like a calming cup to anchor your wind-down, our caffeine-free Serene and Tranquil Blend was created for exactly this moment of the day.

Save this post for tonight. 🤍

Welcome to the 3am club. 🌙

If you fall asleep easily but wake in the small hours- hot, wide awake, mind racing, you are in very good company. Sleep changes are one of the most common experiences of perimenopause and menopause.

Here’s part of the reason.
✨ Progesterone has a naturally calming, settling effect on the nervous system, and it often begins to fall early in perimenopause. ✨ Fluctuating oestrogen also affects how your body regulates temperature, which is why night sweats can jolt you awake. Add a nervous system that’s already stretched thin, and 3am becomes a familiar time.

The good news is that sleep can improve. This week I’ll be sharing a gentle evening rhythm and a full article on menopause and sleep.

Tell me in the comments: what time do you usually wake? 🤍

“I thought I was going mad.”

It’s one of the most common things women say to me when they first come into the clinic. Broken sleep, shifting moods, a cycle that no longer makes sense, a body that suddenly feels unfamiliar.

More often than not, it’s perimenopause.

In my new Wellness Hub article, I walk you through:
🌿 The difference between perimenopause, menopause and postmenopause
🌿 Why your hormones cause such a wide range of symptoms
🌿 When to see your GP
🌿 Gentle, practical ways to support yourself - and how a Medical Herbalist can help

Most of us expect hot flushes 🥵

Far fewer of us expect the 3am wake-ups, the sudden anxiety, or forgetting a word mid-sentence. 🌿

Perimenopause- the years leading up to your final period, often begins in your 40s, and for some women a little earlier. Because your hormones fluctuate rather than simply decline, the signs can come and go, change from month to month, and be easy to put down to stress or “just being busy”.

In Australia, the average age of menopause is 51, but the transition leading up to it can unfold over several years.

Swipe through for some of the less obvious signs. Do any of them sound familiar?

🌸 A gentle but important note: new heart palpitations, very heavy bleeding, or any bleeding after menopause should always be checked with your GP.

This week on the Wellness Hub I’m sharing a full guide to recognising perimenopause- coming Friday!

October is Menopause Awareness Month 🩷

If you’re in your 40s or 50s and something feels different- your sleep, your moods, your cycle, your energy, the way your body holds weight- you may not imagining it, and you are not alone.

Menopause is a natural life stage, but that doesn’t mean you have to grit your teeth and push through it on your own. With the right information and the right support, this can be a time of real renewal. In traditional Chinese medicine, menopause is sometimes called a woman’s “second spring”, and I love that.

Throughout October I’ll be sharing gentle, evidence-informed content on:

🌿 Recognising the signs of perimenopause

🌕 Our first Full Moon of Spring rises in fiery Aries 🔥

The evenings are stretching out, the blossoms are opening along the streets, and many of us are feeling that quiet spring stirring- a sense that it's time for something new.

This weekend's Full Moon peaks at 2:49am AEST on Sunday 27 September. The best time to see it is Saturday evening (tonight), as it rises golden in the east around sunset.

Aries is the sign of courage, fresh starts and honest boundaries. With the Sun sitting opposite in gentle, relationship-loving Libra, this Moon asks a tender question: how do I honour myself without losing my connection to others?

If you've been holding everyone else together and running low on your own spark, consider this your permission slip to put yourself back on the list. 💛

🌿 Herbal allies for the Aries Full Moon 🌿

Three fiery herbs for courage and clarity:
🌱 Nettle: a Mars herb and classic spring tonic, traditionally used to support healthy nutrient intake and seasonal wellbeing. Soft inside, protective outside- the herb of kind, firm boundaries.
🌱 Rosemary: the herb of remembrance, said by Culpeper to sit "under the celestial Ram". Traditionally used to support circulation and mental clarity.
🌱 Hawthorn: the herb of the brave, open heart. Traditionally used to support healthy heart function and emotional wellbeing (please seek professional advice first if you take heart or blood pressure medication).

Three cooling herbs for balance:
🌸 Lemon balm: traditionally used to support a calm mood and restful sleep when Aries fire runs a little hot.
🌸 Rose: a Venus herb for Libra balance, traditionally used to support emotional wellbeing and a gentle, uplifted heart.
🌸 Milky oats: traditionally used to support a depleted, frazzled nervous system. A reminder that Rest is Medicine.

Over on the Wellness Hub, you'll find the full history and folklore of each herb, plus:
🍵 My Brave Heart Spring Moon Tea recipe
🕯️ A simple kitchen-table ritual for courage and balance
🐾 A few gentle tips for including your dog

As always, if you're pregnant, breastfeeding or taking medication, please check with your GP or a qualified Medical Herbalist before using herbs.

Blessed Full Moon ✨

🌼 Happy Spring Equinox 🌼

This morning, just after 10am, light and dark stood in perfect balance for a moment before the scales tipped gently towards the growing light. 🌱

In the Wheel of the Year, this turning point is known as Ostara, a celebration of balance, new growth and gentle beginnings. After the rest and stillness of winter, spring invites us to open the windows, step outside and let a little more light in.

Here on the tablelands, the frosty mornings may still be hanging on, but the signs are everywhere: wattle glowing gold, blossom on the trees, dandelions pushing up through the footpaths, and the bees finding their way back to the garden. 🐝

Some of my favourite herbal allies for this season include:
🌿 Nettle, traditionally used to nourish and to support the body through hay fever season
🌼 Dandelion, traditionally used to support healthy liver function and digestion
🌸 Elderflower, traditionally used to support the upper respiratory tract
🍋 Lemon balm, traditionally used to calm the nervous system and support restful sleep (a lovely companion as daylight saving begins on 4 October)

And a gentle reminder: you don't need a harsh "detox" to welcome spring. Your body already knows how to renew itself. Sometimes it just needs a little support, some fresh greens, more time outdoors, and plenty of rest. 💚

✨ A simple equinox ritual: Take a quiet moment today to reflect on where your life feels in balance, and where it could use a little more light. What would you like to grow this season?

I've written all about the history of the spring equinox, simple ways to celebrate, my eight favourite spring herbal allies, and how to support your dog through allergy season (always starting with your vet 🐾) over on the Wellness Hub.

Blessed Ostara, and happy spring. 🌷

🌹 DAY FIVE - CONNECT 🌹

Here we are.

The final day of our 💟 Five Days of Coming Back to You. 💟

This week we've talked about nourishing our bodies.

Understanding our changing hormones.

Restoring ourselves when we're depleted.

And yesterday, we talked about listening - really listening - when our bodies are asking for our attention.

Today, we finish somewhere that feels particularly important:

❣️Connection. ❣️

Because health doesn't happen in isolation.

We need connection with people who make us feel safe.

Connection with our community.

Connection with the natural world around us.

Connection with ourselves and our bodies.

Yesterday's Women’s Wellness Open Day was a beautiful reminder of that - women coming together, sharing tea, asking questions, exploring the herbs and simply making a little space to talk about their health and wellbeing. It was a gentle reminder that we aren't alone.

🩷🌿 Thank you to everyone who came through the doors.🌿🩷

And if you couldn't make it, you were still very much part of this week with us here.

🌹 TODAY’S HERBAL ALLY - ROSE 🌹

Across cultures and generations, Rose has become deeply entwined with love, beauty and the heart.

For our final plant ally, I chose Rose for what she represents:

Tenderness. Connection. And the relationship we have with ourselves.

There is something else the plants remind us of, too.

Here in the Southern Hemisphere, we're moving into spring.

Around us, plants are waking from their winter rest. New shoots are appearing. Days are growing longer. Life is beginning to stir again.

But nature never rushes this process.

A plant doesn't apologise for its winter dormancy.

It doesn't compare the timing of its flowering with the plant beside it.

It simply moves through its seasons.

💚 And so do we.

There will be seasons when we grow.

Seasons when we bloom.

Seasons when we retreat.

And seasons when we need to begin again.

✨ Today's invitation:

Ask yourself:

What helps me feel most like myself?

Maybe it's time outside.

A walk amongst the trees.

Tea with someone you love.

Gardening.

Music.

Creating something.

Sitting quietly in the morning sun.

Or simply having some time where nobody needs anything from you.

Whatever it is, find a little space for it.

---

Over these five days, I've asked you to:

🌿 NOURISH your body.

🌙 BALANCE by understanding its changing seasons.

🌼 RESTORE what has been depleted.

🌿 LISTEN when your body speaks.

🌹 And CONNECT with what brings you back to yourself.

Women's Health Week may be finishing.

But hopefully the conversation with your body doesn't.

Come back to what nourishes you.
Come back to what restores you.
Come back to your people.
Come back to nature.
Come back to yourself.

Thank you for joining me for

💟 Five Days of Coming Back to You 💟
