As the trees let go of their leaves and the very last signs of summer start to fade what are you letting go of to feel lighter as we move into winter? 🍂

I’m missing the longer summer evenings and opportunities for an evening walk but am leaning into the season for slowing down and enjoying nature’s transition through autumn/fall. I’m still moving but in different ways, like some yoga or other gentle movement on my mat at home after work and grasping the opportunities for walks outside when I can. This was a lovely walk early this week after a morning Dr’s appointment.

Having endo and being in surgical menopause means regular visits to the GP, blood tests and hospital and walking afterwards is my favourite way to decompress. Do you have a favourite place where you can pause and just breathe?

If you’d like help finding your way through all that comes with having endo I can work with you compassionately - take a look at my website to see my women’s health coaching packages or book your free discovery call to find out more 🤍 From the new year my deeply relaxing reflexology treatments will be available again and from my new calming wellness space in the Peak District, if you’d like to find out more I’d love to hear from you ⛰️

Wishing you a restorative weekend x

A lovely friend came over today. We met 15 years ago through our shared love of yoga & became good friends. We used to meet regularly for walks in the Peak District & over the years shared our experiences of heavy painful periods & other symptoms like migraine, anaemia & fatigue alongside our experiences of being told we were “just unlucky” & it was “nothing to worry about” when we sought medical advice. We’ve each since been diagnosed with endometriosis & had hysterectomies, so we not only became close friends but endo & surgical menopause sisters.

Keeping connections when you have endo is hard, not knowing when flare ups are going to strike can make planning difficult & cancelling plans can leave you feeling really low, but connections like these have helped me navigate endo & all that comes with it 💗

Anti-inflammatory nutrition & gut health are important to us both for managing symptoms so I prepared some nourishing snacks:

🤎 A trail mix of nuts, dark chocolate (no refined sugar) & seeds - seeds can be varied to support seed cycling if you still have your period
🤎 Ginger & tahini cookies - ginger is a great anti-inflammatory ingredient. Tahini & almond flour add protein, healthy fats & calcium 🦴
🤎 Dates - for fibre, digestion support (where tolerated) & an energy boost. I can tolerate deglet nour dates occasionally as part of my SIBO protocols (they’re lower in sugar than medjools).

The trail mix can be stored in a jar for a slow energy release, gut health & blood sugar regulating snack when you’re on the go. I take it to work as a post lunch snack🤎 Preparing in bulk can also be more cost effective.

I’ll be sharing details of my gut loving trail mix in my seasonal newsletter Thrive later this month. You can sign up on my website (link in bio!) 🤎

Welcoming November, a month symbolising transition, turning inward & conserving energy ~ making plans for hibernation 🐿️

November offers a space for reflection, time to reflect on the year to date alongside plans & aspirations for the year ahead. The perfect month for starting a journal, writing down thoughts, emotions or goals 🧡

Birthstones are topaz & citrine which symbolise friendship, creativity & love so this month can also be an invitation to reach out to loved ones, maybe a friend you’ve not heard from in a while.

How are you making space for reflection, rest & connection this month?

And if slowing down feels at odds with the pace of life atm or you’re finding your energy levels are dipping with the shorter days, you’re not alone. Keep being kind to yourself 🍂

I’ll be sharing my Balanced autumn/winter newsletter this month with updates about when my reflexology will be available again alongside my online women’s health coaching - if you’ve not signed up head over to my website to subscribe, link in my bio 🤎

Sunday vibes 🧡 Reflecting on a lovely week of visiting family for my Mum’s birthday, visits to the coast breathing in the ozone (nervous system soothing & mind calming 🩵), trying new things Helmsley Walled Gardens (including labyrinth walking!), nourishing sunset walks after some busy days at work (sleep support and making the most of the lighter evenings before the clocks changed)… because life is all about balance 🧡

How are you finding balance now we’re in the autumn season?

When I started my SIBO protocols this March I introduced 2 kiwis a day as part of the good stuff I need to eat more of.

Kiwis are amazing with benefits for digestion & so much more. They’re a super power for:

🥝 digestive health - with soluble & insoluble fibre & being enzyme rich to aid digestion & motility which can reduce bloating & abdominal discomfort
🥝 immune support - high in antioxidants & vitamin C
🥝 heart health - promoting cholesterol balance & supporting blood pressure
🥝 bone strength, skin & eye health - being rich in vitamin K, E & C
🥝 improved sleep due to their natural serotonin

I usually have a kiwi with breakfast (especially with savoury breakfasts!) and as an afternoon snack, sometimes with nuts or a sweeter snack to boost digestive enzymes & support blood sugar regulation. Kiwis are lower glycemic fruits so can support a low inflammation & low FODMAP diet which I’m finding really helpful for managing my SIBO, surgical menopause & endo. Surgical & early menopause, endo and abdominal surgery can each impact on digestion meaning our gut will thank us for anything we do to support digestion & boost digestive enzymes 💚

Did you know you can eat the skin? Go for organic & wash thoroughly if you can! 2 a day is the optimum for achieving the above benefits. Try in a smoothie with almond milk & natural vanilla if you’re looking for an easy way to add to your daily routine 💚

Wishing you a nourishing weekend x

The layers of colour and light are so lovely atm 🍁 Yesterday morning’s walk was a delight.

I love the natural beauty of autumn but I’ve noticed a dip in energy levels and spike in joint pain as we’ve transitioned to the new season. If you’re feeling this too, you’re not alone 🧡

Nature changing started me thinking that each phase of navigating a chronic pain condition brings something different, some phases feel easier and lighter while others bring new challenges like new symptoms, flare ups or diagnoses of co-conditions. Keeping moving and savouring the natural world is my go to strategy for navigating all of this. Gentle movement like walking, pilates and yoga are my favourites atm for supporting mood, strength building and aligning with my energy levels. Do you have a go to strategy for navigating these challenges and how do you honour your energy levels?

In other news, it’s definitely cosy jumper and boots season now. I’ve been on the move visiting family 🤍 and work has started on my reflexology and coaching space (hooray!) ✨Watch this space for more updates ✨

When gluten & lactose free, no refined sugar snacks are nutritious & gut loving but taste delicious too 🤍

I love making this millionaire’s slice inspired by the lovely GF recipe book by I switch medjool for deglet nour dates as they’re lower in sugars & use ghee instead of butter to make it lactose free with a
🍁 nutty layer (gut loving & protein rich).
🍁 coconut milk & deglet nour date layer (digestion support & energy boosting)
🍁 100% dark choc layer (antioxidant rich, gut microbiome loving & mood boosting)
🍁 & topped with seeds (hormone support, more protein & fibre)

As dates are higher fodmap foods this is a recipe I save for an occasional treat & have only recently reintroduced now I’m further into my SIBO treatment. I made it last week for a lovely friend visiting - we enjoyed it on a gorgeous walk along with a spiced chai and a view ⛰️ I shared the rest with colleagues at work - a perfect mid afternoon treat 🧡

I make a 2 ingredient chocolate mousse with the left over coconut milk - just adding melted 100% dark chocolate (topping with chopped hazelnuts as an optional extra for more texture & protein).

I love how the millionaires slice layers reflect the earthy colours of autumn here in the Peak District atm for a seasonally aligned snack 🍁🧡

The one thing that always resets me is a morning walk and if there’s a beautiful sunrise that’s an added bonus, not just for my mood but also for circadian rhythms and nervous system regulation 😊 better sleep and hormone balance support) 🤍 Noticing the leaves changing colour as we move into autumn here in the UK also feels very grounding at the start of the day. This morning was gorgeous on my favourite walk ✨

How do you prepare for the week ahead?

I always feel like the start of October is bittersweet. Saying farewell to the long warm summer days but welcoming the vibrant colours and soft light of early autumn, one of the most beautiful times of the year 🍁🧡

The shorter evenings are an invitation to slow down, I’m really enjoying the cosy moments and looking forward to the leaves changing with their rich reds, browns and oranges. I’m also looking forward to work starting on my wellness space this month, hooray! 🍁

October is a month symbolising peace, harmony and balance so let’s hope it brings just that 🤍 What steps will you be taking to enjoy these aspects of October?

Sunday sunset, what a treat ☀️

I always try to plan a walk after I’ve been travelling as sitting for long stretches of time can spike my pelvic & joint pain. After the most lovely weekend away meeting up with friends from university (something I couldn’t have contemplated doing a few years ago when my endo symptoms ramped up & while I was recovering from excision surgery & my hysterectomy), coming home to this sunset was the icing on the cake 💕

How do you decompress after travelling (& Sunday train stress!) & reset ready for the week ahead?

Wishing you a lovely week 🧡🍁

Warm skies to start the week 🧡

There have been some beautifully serene sunsets recently. It’s felt soothing to soak up the last ounces of sunshine at the end of the day, and a lovely way to start to prepare for sleep. Noticing what’s changing in the landscape like the early heather and abundance of fruit and brambles has been calming too.

August represents the bridge between summer and autumn, offering an opportunity to enjoy the longer days while starting to prepare for the new beginnings of the new season. With this in mind I’m taking a little break from posting here for the next couple of weeks to slow down, take some (digital) rest and recharge - practicing my own advice 🤍

I’ll still be posting stories and checking / replying to messages so if you have questions about my women’s health coaching specialising in endometriosis and menopause, available from September, or my other holistic health offerings I’d love to hear from you. You can also find more on my website - link in my bio 🤍

How are you planning to pause and recharge this month? Do you find it difficult to slow down? 🧡

Sending love and wishing you a restorative August x
