The low-fat diet era left many of us fearing fats, but the truth is quite the opposite, especially during midlife.

Hormones like oestrogen and progesterone actually require healthy fat molecules for their synthesis and optimal balance. If you are struggling with hormonal fluctuations, fatigue, or brain fog, cutting out fats could be doing more harm than good.

Incorporating the right kinds of fats into your daily meals supports cellular health, stabilizes blood sugar, and keeps your endocrine system functioning smoothly. Make it a habit to add nutrient-dense options like avocados, extra virgin olive oil, omega-3-rich oily fish, and a variety of nuts and seeds to your weekly shopping list.

Chicken Nourish Bowl 🥗✨

A colourful, protein-rich bowl packed with fibre, healthy carbohydrates and greens, perfect for supporting steady energy, muscle health and keeping you satisfied through the day.

Serves 4

Ingredients

For the bowls:

* 170 g quinoa / 1 cup dry quinoa
* 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped
* 4 eggs
* 450 g extra-lean chicken mince / 1 lb ground chicken
* 2 tbsp fresh coriander/cilantro, finely chopped
* 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
* 2 tsp fish sauce
* Juice and zest of ½ lime
* 2 tbsp oat flour
* Sea salt and black pepper
* 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
* 150 g baby spinach / around 5 oz

Method

Cook the quinoa according to the packet instructions and set aside.

Steam or roast the sweet potato until soft and tender.

Meanwhile, boil the eggs for around 6–8 minutes, depending on how you like the yolks. Cool in cold water, peel and halve.

For the meatballs, mix the chicken mince with the coriander, ginger, fish sauce, lime juice and zest, oat flour, salt and pepper.

Shape into small meatballs and place on a lined baking tray. Bake at 220°C / 425°F for approximately 16–18 minutes, or until cooked through.

Lightly sauté the spinach in the olive oil for 2–3 minutes.

Divide the quinoa between four bowls and add the sweet potato, spinach, chicken meatballs and egg. Finish with an extra squeeze of fresh lime if you like. 🌿

This is exactly the kind of meal I love for women over 40 — plenty of protein, colourful plants and satisfying whole-food carbohydrates without unnecessary added sugar.

Massage och klimakteriet - en kombination vi behöver prata mer om. 💗

Jag är så glad över att Meno Massage Method® uppmärksammas i senaste numret av Hudterapeuten, SHR:s medlemstidning.

I artikeln skriver jag om hur klimakteriet påverkar så mycket mer än hormonerna bland annat sömn, stress, återhämtning, hud och välbefinnande och vilken viktig roll hudterapeuter och massageterapeuter kan ha i att stötta kvinnor genom den här fasen av livet.

Det var en av anledningarna till att jag skapade Meno Massage Method® – en utbildning som kombinerar specialiserade massagetekniker med kunskap om klimakteriet, kost, livsstil och kvinnohälsa.

Att nu se metoden uppmärksammas i vår bransch känns fantastiskt – och intresset fortsätter att växa! ✨

📅 Nästa utbildning: 21–22 november 2026
📍 Stockholm
Begränsat antal platser – utbildningen börjar fyllas.

Är du hudterapeut eller massageterapeut och vill utveckla din kunskap och kunna erbjuda kvinnor ett mer specialiserat stöd genom klimakteriet?

We’ve all been there: 3 o'clock rolls around, your focus completely plummets, and your brain feels as though it’s wading through thick treacle. Instead of reaching for another mug of builder's tea or raiding the biscuit tin for a quick sugar fix, taking a proper pause makes all the difference.

My absolute go-to for shaking off that mid-afternoon slump is stepping away from the screen for a proper mobility stretch and downing a large glass of water💦

Rehydrating gives your system an immediate lift, while moving your body gets fresh oxygen circulating leaving you feeling revitalised and ready to tackle the rest of the workday. Give it a try next time the afternoon fog sets in and see how much better you feel🌸

Bloating during perimenopause and menopause is a common, uncomfortable issue that many women face, but small adjustments to your daily routine can make a world of difference.

Hormonal shifts can slow down digestion and lower stomach acid levels, leading to sluggish gut motility and that stubborn, heavy feeling after eating.

Incorporating simple habits into your daily routine can help support your gut and ease midlife bloating🌸💗

When it comes to your health, qualifications really do matter.

Social media is full of nutrition and wellness advice, and while some of it can be helpful, it can also be incredibly difficult to know what is evidence-based, what is appropriate for you, and what is simply the latest trend.

Anyone can create a polished social media feed and share nutrition advice, but genuine expertise comes from years of study, professional training, clinical experience and continuing education.

And that matters.

Especially in midlife and menopause, when symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, poor sleep, brain fog, mood changes and digestive issues rarely have one simple solution.

Good nutritional therapy isn’t about giving everyone the same meal plan or telling you to cut out more foods. It’s about looking at the bigger picture, understanding what may be driving your symptoms and creating realistic, personalised changes that work for your body and your life.

You deserve health advice that is safe, evidence-based and tailored to you not another wellness fad.

✨ If you’re a woman 40+ and feel like you’ve tried everything but still don’t feel quite like yourself, I’d love to help🌸
