In a recent session, my client suddenly began to feel a wave of anxiety. We paused, checked in with the body, and through muscle testing noticed a connection with low oestrogen. She is in perimenopause and in her cycle around the time that oestrogen starts to decline. We muscle tested and the herbs Black cohosh, Red clover, and Motherwort came up. So I gave her a few drops of these. Within minutes, she felt her system starting to settle down, the anxious feeling in her body started to reduce.
It was a beautiful reminder of how quickly the body can shift when it gets the support it needs. Love plant medicine, so powerful 🙏🩷

The decline of oestrogen during menopause doesn’t just affect physical health—it has significant psychological and emotional effects because oestrogen interacts with brain chemicals like serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine, which regulate mood, cognition, and stress response.

Lower oestrogen can make emotional regulation harder, so small frustrations feel bigger.

Increased risk of depression: Studies show women are more vulnerable to depressive symptoms during perimenopause and early menopause, especially if there’s a prior history.

Anxiety & nervousness: Oestrogen helps modulate the stress response. Its decline can heighten feelings of anxiety or nervous tension.

Memory lapses & “brain fog”: Many women notice short-term memory issues, slower recall, or difficulty concentrating.

Slower processing speed: Tasks that were once automatic may require more effort, making multitasking harder.

Insomnia & night sweats: Hormonal fluctuations disrupt sleep cycles, leading to fatigue and mood swings.

Lower sleep quality: Poor sleep intensifies irritability, anxiety, and cognitive challenges.

Heightened stress response: Lower oestrogen makes the body more reactive to stress, which can worsen palpitations, anxiety, and emotional sensitivity.

Increased vulnerability to triggers: Situations that used to be manageable may now feel overwhelming.

Self-perception changes: Body changes, hot flashes, and sleep disruption can affect confidence and self-esteem.

Interpersonal sensitivity: Mood fluctuations and irritability can strain relationship

This week SHAME came up. Shame is a quiet storyteller. It doesn’t shout; it whispers—usually in the voice we’re most likely to believe. It tells us we’re not enough, that a single mistake defines the whole of who we are. And because it feels so personal, we often carry it alone. Too embarrassed to talk about.

But shame loses its power when brought into light. Every experience we have in life, good or bad, is just an experience. If we lean into the learning of that experience we can move through it and not hold ourselves in that SHAME!

Learn, grow & move forward, for we are only human, but as a soul we come here to learn..so take the opportunity to learn from your experience 🙏 Much love, Alison 🙏🩷

The best thing we can do when we’re feeling emotional is to stop fighting the waves and allow ourselves to feel them fully. When we soften, breathe, and surrender into what’s rising, the emotion can move through us instead of getting stuck inside us. It’s not weakness—it’s wisdom. Every feeling has a message, and when we let it flow, we make space for clarity, calm, and our own inner strength to emerge again. Alison x

Today I noticed when I looked at my phone the numbers 222, 333 & 555 appeared. I did some deep healing work on myself this week. As a practitioner I ask my clients to be vulnerable to be raw in order to heal. So, I practice what I preach & expect myself to do the raw healing work. This week I did! And the numbers I saw were confirmation of this 🙏

Seeing 222 is confirmation I am heading in the right direction & being encouraged to trust the process 🙏

333 I am remindered that I am supported spiritually & emotionally, encouraging me to be vulnerable express my emotions which will help step me into my gifts

And 555 which signals in being vulnerable, expressing my emotion & that big shifts & transformation will come as a result.

Woh! So you too look out for seeing numbers & if unsure what they mean, google them & learn. For its spirit speaking to us & reassuring us in our healing journey🙏 Alison xx

Somatic healing has become a buzz word, but really its just the movement of unexpressed emotions & trauma through the body. Something we as kinesiologists & energy healing practitioners have been doing for years 🙏

I see it time & time in clinic where a clients body starts to move involuntarily, they feel their nervous system igniting! Little movements in the arms or legs or just that feeling inside of energy moving through!

I had the privilege of doing my own healing work recently where my whole body started to shake & push out the trauma I was holding from my Great Grandmother who survived, trying to keep her head a float, whilst holding onto her dead 2year old daughter, wading in the deep waters of the Cook Straight NZ. Her ship had sunk, her husband missing & 4 children gone! I have been holding all that trauma in my head, neck & body!

I'm so grateful that I able to help heal my ancestors 🙏🩵
