Adaptogens are one of the most powerful tools for supporting menopause – not because they “fix” hormones, but because they help your body respond to stress.
During perimenopause and menopause, estrogen and progesterone fluctuate. At the same time, cortisol (your stress hormone) often rises.
When cortisol is high, it can worsen:
• hot flashes
• night sweats
• anxiety
• belly weight
• fatigue
• sleep problems
This is why so many women feel stuck in “fight-or-flight” during this phase.
Adaptogens like ashwagandha, maca, and other botanical extracts work with your nervous system to help regulate the HPA axis – the system that controls your stress response. Instead of forcing hormones up or down, they gently support balance, resilience, and calm.
That’s exactly why Her Bodhi includes carefully selected adaptogenic herbs in its formula.
It’s designed to support not just estrogen balance – but your whole hormonal system, including stress, sleep, mood, and energy.
Menopause is easier when your body feels supported instead of overwhelmed.
Her Bodhi helps you move through this phase with more calm, clarity, and balance 💛
