When we start to think about New year’s resolutions, we are often looking at making a lot of improvements in ourselves and our lives. Personally, I feel health is a really good place to focus, no matter who you are!

One thing I see every year is how often hormones are overlooked. We push through fatigue, mood changes, poor sleep, skin issues, weight shifts, stress… and assume it’s “just life.”

But your hormones tell a story and when they’re supported, every part of you feels more balanced.

So as you move into the new year, here are a few gentle places to start:
✨ Prioritise sleep like it’s medicine
✨ Keep your blood sugar steady (your energy + hormones will thank you)
✨ Reduce the noise: your nervous system matters
✨ Make space for movement you actually enjoy
✨ Book the health checks you’ve been postponing
✨ And consider investigating your hormones if something doesn’t quite feel right

If you’re feeling that post-Christmas lull, please know you’re not alone.
The days after the big build-up can feel strangely flat, and it’s completely normal. We spend weeks preparing, planning, rushing, celebrating, giving, hosting… and then suddenly it’s quiet again. Your nervous system goes from “go, go, go” to “what now?” and that shift can feel a little jarring.

A few reasons this happens:
✨ Adrenal fatigue from the busy run-up - cortisol has been high for weeks, and now your body is trying to recalibrate.
✨ Emotional contrast —-excitement, family time, noise, routine changes… followed by stillness.
✨ Less daylight + winter hormones - serotonin dips, melatonin rises, and mood can feel lower.
✨ Social + mental load - even joyful moments carry effort, and your body feels that afterwards.

Be gentle with yourself over the next few days.
Slow mornings, hydration, nourishing meals, light movement, early nights, fresh air, and simple routines can help your system settle again.

However 2025 looked for you, I am hoping for a 2026 full of hope and light for you all!

I hope you find the space to embrace the stillness, enjoy the presence of loved ones, and most importantly, be kind to yourself.

Healing is more than symptom relief - it’s soul reclamation.
As a doctor and healer, my work has evolved to hold women through their deepest transitions - not just with medicine, but with presence, intuition, and integrative care.

I create safe, grounded spaces where you can come home to yourself. Through breathwork, somatic healing tools, and guided integration, we work with your whole being - body, mind, spirit, and story - to help you release what no longer serves and step into your next chapter feeling lighter, clearer, and more whole.

You can read more about my 1:1 healing and integration sessions, 1:1 and group breath work sessions and retreats and immersive experiences via my website (Link in bio)

You can reach out on healing@drsohereroked.co.uk to show interest or for more information too.

A little reminder for those who reached out after my past email newsletter and post back in November about The Soul Growth Journey I want you to join with me on.

This course begins this February, and it’s one of the most transformative programmes I’ve ever been invited to be part of.
This isn’t a course you simply “learn” - it’s a 12-week initiation into remembering who you are on a deeper level. A return to your own inner wisdom, guided by earth-based practices, ritual, connection and a beautifully supportive community.

Here’s a little more about what the journey includes:
✨ Working with the power of intent
✨ Creating sacred altars
✨ Exploring shamanic tools, plants & animal teachings
✨ Opening ceremonies and guided inner journeys
✨ Weekly live circle calls with your mentor
✨ Initiations and self-reflective rituals
✨ A full in-person opening & closing ceremony

And the personal shifts people experience are often profound:
• Feeling centred, grounded and more connected to your body
• Developing a daily spiritual practice
• Building relationships with shamanic tools that help you tune into your intuition
• Growing in self-awareness as nature becomes teacher, guide and mirror
• Forming meaningful relationships with like-minded souls

If something inside you lights up when you read this, trust that feeling.
This journey is designed to bring you home to yourself - gently, safely and with the deepest respect for your inner world.

If you’d like more information or to join us in February, send me a message and I can share the details 🤍🌿

A little kindness really does go a long way - whether it’s a smile to a stranger, checking in on a friend, or showing yourself some grace on a hard day.

Kindness is in the small, quiet moments - the cup of tea shared, the compliment given, the deep breath before reacting.

FEATURED ✨ Women’s Own magazine within the piece ‘Your party prescription’

In this article, I share my insights on how to stop a tickle cough.
“When you feel dryness and irritation, put your finger in your ear and wiggle it. There’s a nerve in your throat that also goes into your ear. Stimulating this can stop the tickle”

Hope this tips helps you!

Your hormones love whole, nourishing foods. The closer your food is to its natural state – think colourful fruits + veggies, good quality proteins, healthy fats, and organic options where possible – the better support you give your body’s delicate balance.

Highly processed foods, excess sugar, and additives can throw hormones off track, while whole + organic foods provide the nutrients your body needs to regulate cycles, boost energy, support mood, and keep skin glowing.

Tips for choosing good foods...
🍓 Whole + colourful
🥑 Healthy fats
🥩 Quality protein
🌱 Organic where you can

FEATURED: ’s ‘How your hormones influence your relationships, from initial attraction to falling in love and breaking up’ where I talk you though the hormonal journey you go on from the start to the end of a relationship.

“Testosterone drives our initial desire and libido and both men and women. We also release pheromones - chemical signals that communicate genetic compatibility on a subconscious Level. Dopamine also creates that exciting reward feeling when we see someone attractive, while noradrenaline gives us those butterflies”

FEATURED: ’s ‘Why your period is wrecking your sleep – and how to fix it’

“'Throughout the menstrual cycle, levels of oestrogen and progesterone rise and fall dramatically, directly impacting sleep architecture. Progesterone, which peaks during the luteal phase (the second half of your cycle, around two weeks before your period arrives), has natural sedative properties that promote deeper, more restful sleep. However, as progesterone drops sharply just before menstruation, many women experience insomnia, lighter sleep, and more frequent night wakings.'”

My insights include best tips for sleeping better if this is something you struggle with.

As the saying goes, Rome wasn’t built in a day. There’s a lot of information in this book and much of it may have been new to you. I don’t want you to do everything at once and become overwhelmed.

Despite being an expert in this area I still can’t resist every bar of chocolate or having a takeaway now and then, and I certainly skive off the gym from time to time. Here are some basic principles to keep your energy up.

It’s challenging to make changes when they feel very different to how we’re hard-wired to behave (instant gratification being one) and we’re constantly being given contradictory messages from our media and main food providers, the supermarkets. It can seem overwhelming when you look at yourself and think about going from where you are today to being super- healthy and fit, so set yourself small and obtainable goals every week instead of looking at the mountain you have to climb.

For example, try not to think about going from your current level of fitness to running a marathon. Instead, think about going from where you are today to doing a walk 10 minutes a day for a week, then a brisk walk 20 minutes the week after and 30 minutes the week after that with intermittent jogging and so on. Break your goals into small steps to make them more tangible and realistic. Every goal is possible, just start the journey with a single step.

It’s important to become in tune with your body and learn to recognise the messages it gives you. When I’m run-down I often crave oranges, which are full of vitamin C, or ginger, which has natural anti-inflammatory properties. Other times I may crave a rich vegetable soup full of nutrients. When I’m tired I often crave beetroot, which can help to increase blood count levels and therefore improves energy. When I’m aching it’s my body’s sign to stretch and relax. Over the years I’ve learned to become the expert on me. I get headaches when I’m not sleeping enough or when I’m dehydrated. I understand how my body works, and while I know I have the advantage of being a doctor trained in integrative medicine, I believe anyone can learn to listen to what their body is telling them and understand themselves better.

It takes time, meditation, being really honest with yourself and noticing patterns that happen within your body. A useful method is to keep a mood and food diary.

Keep a record of the foods you eat, and how you feel emotionally and physically. For example, if after eating chocolate cake you feel tired and have a hollow feeling in your stomach then you know that the cake isn’t reacting well in your body.
