Are you going through the menopause - peri or post?
Are your mid-life hormones getting you down? Are you fed-up being hot and bothered, feeling anxious, low or stuck in a brain fog, struggling to sleep well or keep your weight under control or has your libido taken a dive? Would you like to be cool, confident and collected? |
Then you've come to the right place. I can help you find practical, natural ways to manage your perimenopause and menopause symptoms.
The menopause is a natural process, not an illness, but our modern lifestyles have a habit of creating havoc with our bodies and amplifying all the symptoms we don't want to suffer from. The good news is you can do something about this and make changes.
I will help you learn about how lifestyle impacts the menopause, and support you to make appropriate lifestyle changes to enable you to bring your symptoms back under control.
We will consider mindset, food, movement, sleep, stress, natural supplements, essential oils, life purpose, community, and anything else that is relevant for you.
By working with me, you will be able to explore all the possible ways to reduce your symptoms naturally. You may wish to avoid medication completely or you may wish to support existing medication - either way, lifestyle changes are proven to be able to reduce your symptoms, and are safe. So why not try them now?

FAQs
What is coaching?
In very simple terms, coaching helps you to get from where you are now, to where you want to be. Coaching is about unlocking your potential to achieve what you want to - through a learning and development process, rather than being told what to do. It is enabling, empowering, and practical. A coaching session will involve a discussion about what you would like to achieve, working out how you're going to get there, and devising strategies to overcome obstacles that might be getting in your way. It will flow at a pace that is comfortable for you, is positive, collaborative, informative, non-judgemental and solutions-focused. Health coaching is relatively new to the UK, so you may not be familiar with what health coaches do. According to the UK Health Coaches Association:
Health coaching is a tool that complements other parts of the health system. There is so much information out there – how do you know what to believe? How do you ever get the time to read it all? Health coaching can help you cut your own path through the overwhelming forest of advice and options. Furthermore, knowledge is not enough to change behaviour. A coaching programme will help you overcome barriers such as needing to change habits, dealing with procrastination, and challenging beliefs such as not being able to achieve what you want.

What do I need to prepare before my first session?
I have a simple Details Form which I ask you to complete before our first session, which includes some prompts to help you think about what you might want to achieve from the programme. Other than that, just bring yourself and an open mind.
I practice a non-directive form of coaching, which means I enable you, through a collaborative process called 'guided discovery', to find your own conclusions and solutions. So even if you're not sure exactly what you want to achieve, I will help you undercover what is right for you.

How can I be sure I'm going to benefit from your coaching programme?
Coaching is all about you, what you want to achieve and how much you are prepared to put in to the process. It's a bit like the old adage - 'you get out what you put in'.
Having said that, coaching is proven to achieve amazing results if you are ready and committed to moving forwards in your life.
From a practical point of view, each session will start with a discussion about what you want to achieve, and finish with a progress review and an agreement of what's going to happen next. That way there will be structure, purpose and progress and all our work will be personalised to your needs.
I practice cognitive behavioural coaching, which means that I can help you change habits, behaviours, thoughts and beliefs.
Furthermore, one of the aims of coaching is to help you develop the necessary skills to become your own coach! By using the knowledge and skills you will acquire in our sessions, you will develop new and effective ways of dealing with challenges in the future.
