🌻 Helping women 40+ decode confusing menopause symptoms.

Tackle bloating, fatigue & hormone chaos — naturally.
40 yrs in wellness | Free Clarity Call 👇 https://serenitymojo.co.uk/page/links At Serenity Mojo, I help peri-to-post-menopausal women make sense of their symptoms — from bloating, anxiety, and fatigue to restless sleep and hormone chaos. My passion for wellness began early in life, after witnessing the impact of long-term illness in my own fami

ly. It sparked a lifelong fascination with how the body, mind, and emotions are deeply connected — and how supporting that connection can transform health and resilience. Now as a Functional Wellness Practitioner, I combine the latest research in nutrition, hormone health, stress resilience, and digestion with over 40 years of experience in holistic wellness. Using kinesiology, nutrition, and functional wellness strategies, I guide women through my Menopause Reset Method — a practical, root-cause approach to restoring balance, calm, and renewed energy, naturally. My approach helps women understand what their body is really trying to say — so they can move from confusion and frustration to clarity and confidence through menopause and beyond.

✨ New Blog Alert! ✨⁠

"I’m doing everything right… so why do I still feel like this?"

It's one of the most common things I hear from women arriving at clinic.

They're eating well. Exercising. Taking supplements. Trying their best to look after themselves.

Yet they're still exhausted, anxious, sleeping poorly, struggling with digestion, or feeling unlike themselves.

The frustrating part? From the outside, they often look like they're coping just fine.

In my latest blog, I explore why doing all the "right" things doesn't always lead to feeling better during peri-menopause and menopause, how symptoms are often more connected than they appear, and why I use the concept of the "Stress Bowl" to help explain what's really happening inside the body.

If you've ever wondered why your symptoms seem to come and go, or why you feel overwhelmed despite your best efforts, this may resonate with you.

Many women come to me feeling frustrated because their symptoms don't seem to make sense.

One day it's anxiety.
The next it's poor sleep.
Then brain fog, fatigue, overwhelm, low mood, or feeling like they're no longer themselves.

The natural response is often to chase the symptoms. But what if the symptoms aren't the real story?

As The Menopause Translator, my role isn't to overwhelm women with more information or add to the noise. My role is to help them connect the dots.

Together, we explore what their body may be responding to, recognise patterns, and understand how seemingly unrelated symptoms can be connected.

Because when you understand what's happening in your body, something powerful happens:

🌻 Confusion becomes clarity.
🌻 Fear becomes understanding.
🌻 Overwhelm becomes calm.

I believe the body works as an interconnected system, and symptoms are often signals rather than isolated problems. Sometimes what women need most isn't another solution.

It's someone who can help them make sense of what they're experiencing. That's the work I do every day.

One thing that has really struck me while looking through my DNA results again is how connected everything is.

My report highlighted a variety of things like inflammation, blood sugar regulation, stress resilience and nutrient requirements.

At first glance they look like completely separate things, but they're not.

When blood sugar is less stable, inflammation can increase.

When stress is higher, digestion and s*x hormones can change.

When sleep is poor, energy, cravings and recovery are affected too.

Everything talks to everything.

It's reminded me of something I see all the time with the women I work with.

Many arrive feeling frustrated because they're trying to solve one symptom at a time.
🌻 The bloating.
🌻The fatigue.
🌻The weight gain.
🌻 The brain fog.
🌻The skin flare-ups.
🌻The poor sleep.

But often those symptoms aren't separate problems. They're different types of messages coming from the same body.

Over the last few weeks, I haven't made dramatic changes.

🌻 I've adjusted my breakfast.
🌻 Reduced my caffeine.
🌻 Increased protein.
🌻 Added more vegetables.
🌻 Gone to bed earlier.

Simple things.

Yet the biggest lesson has been that when you support the body in one area, other things often begin to improve too. Reducing the demands on the body in one area often frees up resources for other areas that need support.

The body isn't a collection of disconnected parts. It's a system.

And sometimes making sense of what's happening starts with stepping back and listening to all the messages, rather than focusing on just one of them 💛

Menopause can bring about a variety of symptoms, but essential oils can offer some natural relief.⁠
⁠
Here's a look at a few that can be helpful during this time.⁠
⁠
🌻 Clary Sage: Known for balancing hormones, it can reduce the intensity of hot flashes and boost mood.⁠
🌻 Peppermint: Naturally cooling, it can be a go-to for hot flash relief. Just a whiff or a cool compress with diluted peppermint oil can make a big difference.⁠
🌻 Lavender: Helps ease anxiety, stress, and sleep issues. Its calming scent can also help you unwind and feel more grounded.⁠
🌻 Geranium: Known to help with hormone balance and mood regulation, it's also great for skin health during this transitional time.⁠
🌻 Roman Chamomile: Perfect for calming irritability and helping with relaxation, especially before bed.⁠
⁠
In my book 'Am I Menopausal?, you'll find lots more information and tips on using essential oils during menopause. Head over to my website via the Learn More button at the top of my page to find out more.

Have you ever looked at your stomach by the end of the day and wondered:

"How can I be this bloated when I'm eating so well?"

This is something I see quite often working with women during peri-menopause and menopause.

Many women assume bloating means they've eaten the wrong thing, need to cut more foods out, or haven't found the right supplement yet.

But what I often see is that it's not just about what's on the plate.

The body may be responding to a combination of factors including stress, hormone changes, digestive function, sleep disruption and blood sugar fluctuations.

Hormones don't work in isolation. Neither does digestion.

Sometimes symptoms are the body signalling pressure somewhere in the system, even when you're doing all the "right" things.

Looking at the bigger picture can often reveal patterns that aren't obvious when we're only focusing on food.

Symptoms aren't random, even if they feel like they are.

And perhaps most importantly... Your body isn't working against you, it's communicating.

If you're struggling to make sense of bloating, food reactions or digestive changes that seem to have appeared out of nowhere, I'd be happy to help you start connecting the dots.

Send me a message and let's explore what your body may be responding to.

One thing I noticed this week was that making changes to my diet initially unsettled my digestion a little and after moving my coffee later into the day, I also had a slightly muzzy head for a few days too.

But interestingly… both settled down fairly quickly. What I didn’t do this time was panic and add more supplements to try and “fix” everything immediately.

That’s something I see a lot now. Women layering more and more things onto an already overwhelmed system because they think they need to do more. Sometimes the body actually needs less input… not more.

The interesting thing was that once things settled, I started to notice:
🌻 More stable energy.
🌻 Feeling generally well.
🌻 Some weight shifting.

Then the hot weather arrived and the weight loss seemed to disappear again almost overnight 😅

But honestly? I still felt well. And that actually felt more important.

It reminded me this week that the body is constantly adapting based on:
🌻 The resources it’s given
🌻 Stress levels
🌻 Hormones
🌻 Sleep
🌻 Environment
🌻 Temperature
🌻 Hydration
🌻 Food
🌻 Nervous system load

Everything talks to everything. One practical thing that has helped recently is that it’s finally salad season 😄 Which makes eating more vegetables feel much easier and more natural for me.

I think the biggest lesson this week has been this: Your body is usually doing its best with the information and resources available to it at the time.

Sometimes the goal isn’t perfection. Sometimes it’s simply creating a better environment for the body to function in 💛

Feeling anxious or teary for no apparent reason can be unsettling—but it’s more common than you might think, especially in midlife. Hormonal shifts, stress load, and your body’s recovery bandwidth all influence how you experience emotions.⁠
⁠
Your emotional health is deeply connected to how your body processes stress and regulates hormones—and understanding this connection can help you navigate midlife transitions with more confidence and stability.⁠

Your digestion is important for your health and emotions. We now know our brain, heart, and gut all talk to each other.⁠
⁠
Oestrogen is the ingredient that gives flexibility to all tissue in the body, including the whole of the digestive system. This means when your oestrogen is all over the place, so is your digestion.⁠
⁠
There are many things you can do to help your digestion during menopause, and you can find all my tips and advice in the 'Your digestion' chapter of my book. I can't cover all of these now, as my post would be too long! So, I'm going to talk about one thing you can do, which most people don't think is important... chewing your food properly!⁠
⁠
This helps to break down your food into smaller particles, making it easier for your digestive system to process and absorb nutrients. Proper chewing also stimulates saliva production, which contains enzymes that begin the digestive process in your mouth. Chewing thoroughly can also prevent digestive issues such as bloating and indigestion, as it allows your stomach to work more efficiently. ⁠

Making sense of it - week 2.

This week I’ve been tweaking my meals to be lower carb and making sure I’m actually getting enough protein throughout the day.

One thing my DNA results showed was that I’m more sensitive to caffeine… which may affect things like sleep, anxiety, heart health and even bone health over time.

So this week I’ve:
🌻 Moved my coffee later into the morning
🌻 Reduced from 2 coffees a day to 1
🌻 Started going to bed earlier to read instead of pushing through tiredness

I’m also trying to increase vegetables… although my results ALSO explained why I’ve never naturally loved bitter greens 😂 Apparently I have increased taste sensitivity to bitter foods, which unfortunately includes lots of the healthy green ones.

So instead of forcing myself to eat kale sadly in a corner somewhere, I’m hiding them in curries, herbs, spices and smoothies instead.

One unexpected real-life issue: If both people in the house start having daily smoothies… suddenly you don’t own enough Nutribullet cups 😅

But honestly, the biggest thing I’ve noticed so far is mental clarity. Usually by the end of the day I feel foggy and exhausted from trying to concentrate. This week I’ve felt much clearer headed and my energy feels more stable. Which is interesting because none of the changes have actually felt extreme.

I think that’s probably the biggest lesson for me so far: changes need to be small and fit into your real lifestyle… otherwise they simply won’t work long term.

And sometimes personalised changes work far better than trying to force yourself through generic “healthy habits” that don’t really suit your body.

Let’s see what next week brings.

It’s Better Sleep Month 🌙

But for so many women in midlife, “getting better sleep” feels easier said than done.

You’re exhausted… yet wide awake at 2am.
Your mind won’t switch off.
You feel tired all day but strangely “wired” at night.

The truth is, it’s not just hormones or stress. Your body may be asking for support in ways you haven’t considered yet.

In my blog, What’s Hijacking Your Sleep — And How to Support It Naturally, I explore the hidden stress patterns behind disrupted sleep and gentle, natural ways to support your body.
