This song hits differently now, doesn’t it?... 🤣

Fortunately Ayurveda offers us a way of understanding that the transition through menopause doesn’t have to be this way. We can approach perimenopause as a sacred rite of passage. 🥀

These are three key things Ayurveda teaches us about perimenopause:

1️⃣ It’s a natural Vata time, when the body’s energy moves inward for deep wisdom and renewal.

2️⃣ Hot flashes, mood swings and sleep changes are your body asking for grounding, deep nourishment and rest - not punishment or criticism.

3️⃣ When you cultivate ojas (vital energy) with warm food, herbs and slower living, this stage becomes an initiation into feminine power.

We teach all this (and so much more) inside our Divine Feminine Ayurvedic Wellness Coach Certification Training.

These are just some of the lessons you’ll learn in our yearlong embodied study of women’s health: 💫

✔ The effects of stress on women’s health
✔ The endocrine system and its role in women’s health
✔ Regulating Agni, removing Ama and building Ojas
✔ Womb care at every stage of a woman’s hormonal life
✔ The Ayurveda approach to thyroid and balancing hormones
✔ Deeper understanding of Ojas & Soma

We start in January 2026 and we’d love to have you. Ready to dive deeper?

What’s estrogen dominance, you ask?
 Simply pu What’s estrogen dominance, you ask?

Simply put: it’s when there’s too much estrogen and not enough progesterone in the body. It’s related to how we sleep, eat, relate and yes, stress out.

From an Ayurvedic lens, it’s what happens when our liver and digestion get overwhelmed, and the body’s natural rhythm of build and release gets backed up. Instead of flowing like a perfectly timed orchestra, our hormones get out of sync, leading us to feel heavy, chaotic and inflamed.

But here’s the good news: your body knows how to find balance again. 

Herbs, supplements, and most importantly, nervous system, sleep and lifestyle rituals can 
help your hormones re-harmonize naturally.

If you want to dive deeper, comment BALANCE and I’ll send you my full article: Estrogen Dominance: Signs You May Be Estrogen Dominant + What to Do About It. It’s a must-read if you’ve been wondering why you feel “off” or sensing your hormones need a reset.
Anxious thoughts you can’t turn off… ⁠ ⁠ S Anxious thoughts you can’t turn off… ⁠
⁠
Sleep that feels light, restless or non-existent… ⁠

A diet of coffee, cold food or too many grab-and-go meals that leaves you ungrounded… ⁠

The constant pull of screens, stress and speed that has you longing for calm. ⁠
