I am working with many women at the moment who are taking HRT but still experiencing terrible symptoms. One of the biggest contributing reasons is because they are not metabolising and detoxifying hormones effectively. Once your body uses your hormones, the leftovers need to be detoxified safely out of the body especially when it comes to oestrogen. Think of oestrogen like cars trying to leave a big stadium after an event. Your body has a clear exit system designed to get those cars out smoothly:

1️⃣ The Liver = The Traffic Control Centre. This is where hormones get processed and prepared to leave the body safely. The liver adds little “exit passes” to hormones so they can move on.

2️⃣ The Gut & Bowels = The Motorway Out of Town. Once hormones are processed, they travel down the motorway (your digestive system) to be eliminated in your poo.

3️⃣ The Kidneys = The Side Roads. Some hormones leave via urine, another escape route.

🚧 But What Happens When Detox Pathways Are Sluggish? Now imagine, the traffic lights in the control centre aren’t working properly (liver overloaded) The motorway has roadworks (constipation, poor gut health, stress) Some exits are closed (dehydration, poor nutrient status)
🚗🚗🚗🚗🚗🚗 The cars can’t leave. So they start circling back into town. That’s exactly what happens with hormones, especially oestrogen. Instead of leaving the body, they get:

➡️ Reabsorbed through the gut
➡️ Recirculated back into the bloodstream
➡️ Adding to the body’s hormone load

😣 What That Traffic Jam Feels Like in the Body

• Heavy or painful periods
• Breast tenderness
• Bloating
• PMS / mood swings
• Headaches or migraines
• Perimenopause symptoms feeling worse
• Feeling “puffy”, inflamed or wired but tired

🌿 The Goal: Get Traffic Flowing Again

We support the exit routes so that means supporting:

✔️ Liver pathways (nutrients, protein, cruciferous veg)
✔️ Gut health (fibre, regular bowel movements, reducing stress )
✔️ Hydration
✔️ Reducing toxic load where possible

I am thoroughly enjoying hanging out with the lovely ladies from GFM Clearcomms each week talking all things Menopause ✨

Last week was all about nutrition and the impact that food can have on our hormones during menopause and as we age, my favourite topic! This week we covered the impact that stress has on our hormones and how we can learn to reduce stress. I got everyone really thinking about how they can bring in more calming practices and self care to create more space for themselves. All of this has a profound effect in all areas of our lives including within the workplace 🙌

It is so wonderful to see how much the company values the health and wellbeing of their staff 😀

Looking forward to next week!

I am seeing more and more test results coming back showing poor oestrogen detoxification. This is a real problem for women as what happens is it keeps being re absorbed by the body, re circulating instead of safely being removed out of the body. There are 3 phases that break down and remove used oestrogens and their metabolites from the body. Metabolites are like the leftovers created once your liver has processed and used oestrogen. They then have to go down pathways to the next phase, there are 3 main routes with two being much more proliferative, too much down those means symptoms contributing to and Including weight gain, heavy painful periods, acne, mood swings, tender breasts, fibroids and even cancer.
If they go down the right path they can safely be removed via having a wee or a bowel movement ( we need regular daily bowel movements) 💩

What prevents a safe exit - stress, poor gut and liver health, alcohol, lack of nutrients and medications. One of the simplest things you can do to support the process is eat 2 cups of Cruciferous vegetables at lunch and dinner everyday. They contain a compound called DIM which helps to balance oestrogen levels and support phase 1 and 2 detoxification. Literally something so simple but extremely effective 💪

Today I steamed broccoli and kale with some left over cajun chicken for lunch, I need the oestrogen I’m naturally making and from my HRT to work effectively for me, used and removed so I feel well 😀

If you would like more info on how I can help you there’s still time to grab yourself a discount before January ends. Get in touch for a chat, I’m here to help,

A study of 125,000 women by Cambridge University has shown a possible link between loss of hormones during menopause to Dementia later in life for women. Two out of three who develop Dementia are women. Dr Mosconi Neuroscientist has done extensive research on this, I highly recommend her books especially ‘The XX Brain’ The Groundbreaking Science Empowering Women to Prevent Dementia. It shows that Amyloid Plaques start forming in the brain in our mid forties when Oestrogen levels start to decline for many women. Oestrogen is extremely protective, without this protection we are much more open to inflammation. Although what is equally important is living a healthy lifestyle. A Mediterranean style diet, lots of healthy fats, vegetables, good quality protein, low in sugar, processed foods and alcohol. Daily movement and connection within a supportive community.

Taking HRT within ten years of the menopause (Once you haven’t had a period for 12 months) can help but ultimately it is lifestyle that matters most. Hormones taken in via HRT will not make up for a poor diet, high stress or low exercise. Combining both HRT and a healthy lifestyle is, in my view, the ultimate way to go to protect women from not only Dementia but other health conditions including Heart disease, Osteoporosis, Arthritis and other Autoimmune diseases.

We have to take responsibility for our own health, start today, it’s never too late to choose to make better choices, your future self will thank you ❤️

I have been talking a lot lately with clients about CAPACITY. Do you have much capacity left at the moment or are you so full that the slightest thing tips you over the edge?

When we are full, we can very easily feel overwhelmed becoming overly sensitive, emotional, irritable and frustrated. Listen to your body and create more space for yourself to completely de compress allowing yourself to SLOW DOWN without feeling guilty.

We need to create space for ourselves so that our nervous system can regulate, so that our hormones can work effectively. Symptoms subside, we feel much calmer, more energised and we can think clearly.

Ask yourself these questions …. How can I create more space for myself? What does more space look like to me?

For me, it’s more calming mindful practises like breathing deeply, laying on a soft foam roller sinking into my spine releasing tension from my mind and body. I didn’t have my foam roller to hand today at work so I used a bolster instead. It feels good to just STOP and BREATH 🧘

Find what works for you and bring much more of it into your life,

My client had a full hysterectomy March last year and was immediately thrown into surgical menopause. She said the symptoms of that are far worse than the operation and recovery from it. My client had an appointment with a private doctor who prescribed Oestrogen to help ease symptoms which included insomnia, weight gain, low energy, low mood, night sweats and low libido. It helped a little but still the weight was increasing, sleep terrible and energy low.

My client got in touch with me and booked a Hormone MOT + This includes a consultation with me and an Advanced Hormone Test via

I met with her online this morning to go through the results, she had:

🔸 Very high Oestrogen
🔸 Very low Progesterone
🔸 Very low Testosterone
🔸 Very low Cortisol
🔸 Low B12 and B6
🔸 Low Melatonin
🔸 She wasnt detoxifying Oestrogen well

No wonder she was feeling so awful, in fact I’m surprised she was able to function as well as she had been.

She now has a plan in place so she can heal and recover. Her Adrenal Glands need lots of support so they can recalibrate and start producing the right amounts of hormones for her so she feels energised, her mood lifts and her weight drops. Support for her Oestrogen detox pathways as Oestrogen was getting stuck along the journey out the body making her levels high and also she needs to add in Micronised Progesterone to her HRT prescription. Just because she no longer has a womb does not mean she doesn’t need it. Progesterone has many benefits not just to protect the womb lining but for sleep, mood and healthy bones. She said the test has given her the answers she’s been wanting for months, she feels totally reassured and relieved to know why she has been feeling so not herself. ‘I’m so glad I took the test’ she said, now she can start re building her life and looking forward to feeling her bright bubbly self again 👏

I am very happy to run a 6 week Menopause Education and Support program for GFM Clear Comms employees in Colchester. Today was our first session, we covered lots including:

🔸 Why women today are experiencing more symptoms than ever before

🔸 What are the changes going on inside our bodies and why

🔸 What actually is menopause

🔸 The roles of Oestrogen, Progesterone and Testosterone throughout the body

🔸 The 4 stages of Perimenopause

🔸 Symptoms

We had lots of conversations about our experiences and symptoms, learning about the importance of building strong healthy foundations to support us as we navigate what can be a very challenging time!

Looking forward to next week when I teach the biggest foundation of all - Nutrition, nourishing the mind and body for optimal hormone health 👏

I absolutely love delivering these sessions as it really brings women together to talk and share, we can learn so much from each other 🫶

It is so wonderful working with Clare who was so fed up of not getting anywhere via the mainstream medical route. Their answer was to put her on a hormone contraceptive, in this case the Mirena coil which only suppresses her own natural hormones from working and masks what’s really going on in her body. It doesn’t actually get to root cause. Taking a functional whole body approach does and this is what we have been doing and already the differences are huge…

“I signed up to a coaching program with Sarah because I was experiencing painful, heavy periods, bloating and bad anxiety. I was diagnosed with Endometriosis and was put on the Mirena Coil when I was 17 to try and help my symptoms. It helped with the bleeding but I still get bad cramps, lots of anxiety and feel bloated. Sarah has hugely helped in so many ways, she takes a completely different approach to women’s health than any doctor has with me. She looked at me as a whole looking at my history, diet, stress, mindset what exercise I’m doing, literally everything. I hadn’t realised what was contributing to the inflammation in my body making all my symptoms worse. We worked on really cleaning up my diet and adding in supplements. We did CBT therapy to massively reduce my anxiety and I learnt so much about my hormones and what I needed for them to work well. After just 2 weeks I felt so much better and now no more cramps, my bloating heavily reduced and have felt the least anxious I have ever felt. I’m not ready to remove the coil yet but I know I need to do this for my own hormones to work properly. For anyone struggling with their periods or anxiety Sarah really is so knowledgeable and supportive, I highly recommend her”

I always enjoy a little bit extra over the festive holiday especially when it comes to Christmas pudding, it’s my fave and I’m so sad I have to wait a whole year before I can have anymore 😭 BUT it’s good to get back to my normal routine which is what helps me to feel so great everyday 😃 I eat this way 90% of the time.

🔸 3 well balanced meals a day never skipping any and not eating past 7pm, eating within a 10-12 hour window. This keeps my blood sugars stable, my body feels SAFE, my hormones regulate. My mood is good, I’m energised, I sleep well 😴 My Perimenopausal self can cope well with the demands of daily life! I don’t experience symptoms 👏

🔸 Protein, fats and fibre at every meal with a strong focus on at least 25-30g of protein 🥩

🔸Everything is REAL food, no processed or refined sugar. I make the time to cook from scratch as it’s a priority, I nourish myself with the best ingredients I can 🥦

🔸 I only eat complex carbs that are found in vegetables including lots of sweet potatoes, sometimes I eat small amounts of brown rice but roasted sweet potatoes are my go to, I love them roasted in olive oil and garlic 🧄

🔸 I have a green tea after breakfast and drink caffeine free like Dandelion Coffee and water for the rest of the day 💧

🔸 I have a square of dark chocolate after lunch or a homemade brownie 🍫

Food literally is medicine, eat real food at the right times of the day and within a week you will feel like a new woman! You may need more of a specialist approach if you are sensitive or intolerant to certain foods. As we go through Perimenopause we can become very sensitive to high histamine foods, sugar, dairy, caffeine and gluten, this is why it’s important to tailor your diet to what suits you best now 👏

If you would like any help in tailoring a proper nourishing food plan to get your hormones working optimally for you, get in touch, I’m here to help,

Lots of love, Sarah 🫶

This isn’t about New Year, New You, this is about New Year, celebrating the Real You. Allowing every bit of you, celebrating your beautiful uniqueness, to shine through. Building confidence and self esteem so that you want to prioritise yourself saying goodbye to any old unhelpful habits, saying hello to new positive supportive ones that will propel you to be the very best version of you ✨

Our life experiences influence who we become, every thought we have has a huge impact on our physical and emotional state. Our nervous system responds, our hormones respond, we can become so dysregulated we experience symptoms which over time build. More women than ever are dysregulated, more women than ever are experiencing inflammation, weight gain, fibroids, endometriosis, PCOS, thyroid issues, anxiety, fertility issues, painful heavy periods, severe perimenopause and menopause symptoms. I help many women who are really struggling to find their way, to heal and recover so they can start to live again. I receive messages all the time from women saying I change their lives, I received this one only yesterday… “Thank you for helping me ‘find myself’ this year”

I can help you find yourself too 👏

Sarahs Story

I started running my own business, iMassage Massage Health & Wellbeing back in 2012 following my passion for natural holistic healthcare. Over the years I built a very successful fulltime career as a wellness practitioner and in 2019 I fulfilled my dream and opened The Manor Health and Wellness Centre in Colchester Essex with a colleague. The Manor is an amazing space offering holistic healthcare therapies, classes and workshops and brings many very experienced, passionate practitioners and teachers together working under one roof. www.themanorhealthandwellness.co.uk

I was seeing a lot of women in my practice presenting with Peri to Post Menopausal symptoms who were not getting any help or guidance from their GPs. I myself being 47 was also experiencing some symptoms specifically nightsweats and unexplained weightgain. I felt a huge calling to research everything menopause, train in this area and then share my knowledge, #knowledgeispower

My passion and enthusiasm for learning and helping others took me to train to become a Peri to Post Menopause Womens Wellness Coach. My training has given me all the knowledge, tools, love and passion to support women through these years empowering them with the confidence they need to make the 3rd age their best years yet. Together we can build a holistic strategy that involves you taking ownership of your health, taking back control so that you feel the healthiest you have ever felt and will fly into the second half of your life fitter, stronger and happier than ever before.

KNOWLEDGE = ACTION = POWER
