I highly recommend Sally’s remedies and essences ✨💗
Let’s face it Menopause sucks. It’s an extreme challenge.
Throwing up a mixed bag of experiences because of hormonal and psycho-spiritual changes that play havoc with our wellbeing and emotions.
Symptoms can depend on your own body, but common experiences are hot flushes, mood swings, night sweats and brain fog.
Here’s some common ground that many women face and the essences that can help hold you through.
🌸 Coming to terms with change:
Walnut- helps you people adapt to change and is particularly useful during big life events like meno. It protects the mind.
Honeysuckle: For feelings of getting older and things we may have let go of during our youth. We can start dwelling on past memories, regret missed opportunities or rose tinted glasses for good ole’ days. This will bring you into the present and enjoy what you have now.
Wild Oat: Meno can bring the yearning for a new direction in life and purpose. Wild Oat helps navigate this and brings things into alignment for the new.
Star of Bethlehem: For some, menopause can trigger a sense of loss - for childbearing, ending a life chapter, empty nest syndrome. Star of Bethlehem can help to process and overcome these feelings.
🌸 Menopause mood swings:
Scleranthus: This flower is for indecisiveness, restlessness and can't order your thoughts. It helps balance mood and thoughts.
Impatiens: Impatiens remedy is for if you're feeling impatient or irritable.
Beech: Beech is for intolerance. Feeling overly critical or judgemental and not able to see peoples point of view. Beech will help you have tolerance and compassion.
Holly: For the angry, maybe jealousy, resentment or even hate feelings that can bring a temper on. There’s many flavours to this one.
🌸 Brain Fog:
Clematis: Feeling like your head’s in the clouds?
Clematis is great for grounding and anchoring. This will help bring you back into focus when you're feeling all over the place, sometimes escaping by daydreaming the time away.
🌸 Anxiety:
Mimulus: This is the remedy for a fear of known things, in menopause it may be the fear of change.
Aspen: Are you experiencing a general sense of uneasiness, foreboding, apprehension or feeling an impending danger with no reason? Aspen dissolves these heavy feelings.
🌸 Insomnia & sleep:
White Chestnut: Whirling thoughts take flight at bedtime, struggles to switch off and have repetitive thoughts running at full pelt? These keep you awake at night or during the early hours of the morning. White Chestnut essence helps calm your inner voice.
Mimulus: Again, if insomnia is through worry and anxiety this is a good one.
🌸Loss of confidence:
Larch: We can lose our identities and lack confidence during meno. Larch helps regain our strength and vision of who we are.
🌸 Low mood/depression:
Mustard: This is for a deep gloom and dark clouds that seem to come and go for no apparent reason. Mustard essences helps ease if you feel like being in a slump and can’t to shake it off then it vanishes as fast as it came, but will be back.
Wild Rose: For lack of motivation and feel stuck in a rut. You're not feeling depressed but lack interest in the world around you and have lost any motivation to try change your life for the better. This essence will help you find a new interest in life and step forward with enthusiasm.
Willow: We all can feel self-pity or resentful of things and life is unfair. Willow essence helps bring optimism and guide you to take responsibility for your life.
🌸 Fatigue & exhaustion:
Olive - For feeling physically exhausted and drained of all energy. It happens when you’ve given too much of yourself or meno is taking its toll. Also good if you’ve been on the go for long periods that’s left you feeling spread thin and sucked your energy. This can help put the bounce back in your step if you feel completely wrung out and have no energy left.
Hornbeam: For mental tiredness and feeling very weary, emotionally just wanting to stay curled up in bed emotionally. Acutely feeling life’s burdens and very fatigued from it all. This flower essence gives renewed enthusiasm.
Personally, flower essences got me through the whole 8 years of this midlife transition.
I still shudder to think I what kind of mess I’d be in if it hadn’t been for the essences helping to alleviate the emotional stressors.
If any of these ring true to what you’re going through. Flower essences are on hand. I can mix you a personal bottle of up to 7 flowers. 🌺
A 100% natural, complimentary, therapeutic approach to alleviating symptoms.

✨ Client Review spotlight ✨
I love how Reiki / energy work helps people feel, it’s difficult to explain what it does as each persons experience will be different, but the lightness and clarity that it brings to people is just amazing.
