Some of use a measuring cup to take our herbs, others use the lid of the herbal medicine bottle. To achieve the best effect, taking our herbs in the prescribed amount- close enough is not good enough. Aim for the prescribed dose every time. If your herbal prescription is 7.5 ml, you need a lid/cap full and a half to achieve one dose of you don’t have a measurement cup.

Has anyone else’s digestion gone “ rogue” since perimenopause started? Bloating that comes out of nowhere, bathroom habits that used to be like ⏰ clockwork and now aren’t - it’s incredibly common, and there’s a reason behind it: your gut and your hormones are deeply connected. You’re not imagining 🧠 it.
What’s changed most for you lately- bloating,
bowel habits or something else entirely?

Bursitis, aching joints, hip
Pain- so many women tell me about the pain they noticed, often years before their cycles stopped. Oestrogen supports collagen production and its anti-inflammatory effects 🌧️on joint💪🏼tissue- so as oestrogen fluctuates through perimenopause 🔥, stiffness and aches 🔥 can show up

There is an absolute link with our hormones and gut health, and for those of us that have oestrogen dominant issues like endometriosis this is for you.
❓The estrobolome is a fancy word that describes the work of our liver, and gut bacteria to create beta glucuronidase- to clear oestrogen. 🍵So eating healthy, fermented foods and exercising regularly are great foundations for oestrogen balance.

Hormone therapy is a valid tool, it doesn’t cover the whole picture. Perimenopause is a multi-system transition-brain, joints, muscles and gut health.

When I hear folk talk about long hours of work, and not hitting their movement goals because of this. Yet when they have team training they show up, not letting people down.

We are our best team, we need to show up for ourselves to then be our best for others. Does this ring true?
