“What you seek is seeking you.” — Rumi
Perimenopause has a way of stripping back everything that isn’t truly you.
Not because life suddenly gets more “spiritual,” but because your body and nervous system become far less willing to carry what was never yours in the first place expectations, roles, habits, and beliefs you picked up along the way.
Being authentic should be the easiest thing in the world.
But most of us were taught to push, perform, and keep going—often at the expense of our own needs. No wonder so many women in their 40s and 50s feel like they’ve lost their spark or sense of direction.
Here’s the reframe:
Sometimes what feels like “falling apart” is actually your system pointing you back to alignment.
The more we slow down, create quiet moments, and reconnect to our body, the more we can hear that inner voice again the one that knows what we need, what feels right, and what we’re ready to let go of.
True health isn’t only physical.
It’s emotional, social, psychological, and even vocational wellbeing.
And the doorway to all of this often isn’t doing more… but listening more.
Your body is not working against you.
It may actually be leading you toward exactly what you’ve been seeking.
