“You can create an oasis of love in the midst of a harsh and uncaring world by
grinding it out and stickin in there”
Hello… thanks for visiting my BLOG…
I write to you today from my heart with the hope that you get to know who I am… why I write to you…. and what Healthy Hormones has to offer you so you can have relief from your early…before… during… or post menopause symptoms… I have always been a little hyperactive… my brain works fast… and my challenge has been to ’slow down’… for this reason I want you to pretend this is the first time you have heard of Healthy Hormones… I am learning how to ‘be better’ at writing to you… and I appreciate all the feedback I get from you…. so…
… I guess I will start from the beginning… I was living in Taos New Mexico 5 years ago… it was snowing and the mountain was covered in snow… the fire was burning and although snow covered the ground my body was as hot as if the fire was burning inside me…. I cannot find the words to express how I felt… I couldn’t sleep… my emotions were all over the place… and I thought I was going mad…
I believed I did all the ‘right’ things…
My career has span 20 years within the health and wellness industry… I was fit. and healthy and I believed I did all the ‘right’ things… I remember lying on my bed looking out the window at the snow falling and wondering what I was doing wrong … because I felt so terrible… and all I knew was that something was going on inside my mind body and I had to find out what it was.
I was newly married and because my periods had become irratic the first thought to mind was that I was pregnant… of course you do not have to be newly married to be pregnant… and I found it interesting how many times I was asked if I was going to have another child because I was newly married… so when I didn’t have a period for 2 months that was my first thought… wow … pregnant? Yes I could have another baby…
… so off I went to the chemist and 3 home pregnancy tests later told me that I wasn’t pregnant … and 3 visits to a doctor told me my hormones were ‘dancing’ and that HRT was my option…. I was way to young to be going through menopause…. and then I remembered my grandmother….
‘Watch out for this one… she doesn’t like drugs.’..
…. let me go back a little bit…. I have an intellectually impaired son who started life with many health issues and allergies…
I started studying the human body… to educate myself on what it needed to be healthy and strong… so I could help my son be healthy without drugs.. I always listened to what the medical world had to say… and then I always went in search of alternative answers. I was a young mum… I did not know what I went looking for… I just followed the little voice inside that said there had to be another way… and I remember one pedetrician writing a note to a neurologist saying… ‘watch out for this one… she doesn’t like drugs.’..
… Sometimes I felt so sorry for Matthew because he became my ‘guinea pig’ in search of healthier options for him… he never complained and through trial and error… and more trying and testing… we were able to remove all the medications and drugs… and he is now 24 years old… healthy, fit… allergy free… and has his first real relationship with a girl… how cool is that?
‘What did it mean… and how was I going to fix it? ‘
… At 36 years old my grandmother was ’sent away’ for 6 months…
this made me more determined to source why I was feeling like I was…. what did it mean… and how was I going to fix it? … because I was not going to go ‘mad’…
I moved back to Australia… and sadly… without a husband… (and thats another story)… emotional trauma sent my hormones into more of a flurry… and although I knew it wasnt the reason … I also knew it wasnt helping me… I spent the first few months home finding a new balance for myself and my children… and I was walking on the beach one morning listening to a CD from a woman in US who had gone on her own search for answers to menopause relief… she was worth listening because she had healed her own body… and had found a new balance so she was able to maintain her weight and control her emotions…. and remove her hot flushes/flashes…
‘My hot flushes/flashes subsided… my emotions settled down…’
… she inspired me to search further and I went on a mission to see what was available in Australia for woman 40+ … who were feeling the side effects.. due to early, before, during or post menopause…. I took on board what Arlene said… I applied her strategies… I did exactly what she did to balance her body… I figured if it had helped her it quite possibly would also help me… that makes sense, doesn’t it?
… and in no time at all I was feeling so much better… my hot flushes/flashes subsided… my emotions settled down… and my cravings were less…. I began to appreciate what it all meant… I realized that ageing was merely a movement in time and that I could chose how to move through that time… and so can you…
… I had to make some decisions on what I was going to do with myself… Matthew, Kelsey and I were settled back in Australia… and I made the decision to invest my time…. and my money into helping other women understand… and appreciate… the ageing process… and to know that whether it be early… before… during… or post menopause… it very simply is a name given to the changes going on within one… and YOU can take control of it… one must just learn how to do it.
‘And so can you…’
… gosh… it is so much easier to take a pill… have an injection… or even just ignore it… and what would the benefit be… because although drugs have a place… drugs do not give your body what it…wants and needs… to ‘fix’ what is going on inside…
… One thing I have learn’t to be true… is that your body can tell you what it wants… and as you move into this new phase of life… if you stop and listen to what you are feeling… to what your mind is thinking about …. then you have it in you to heal yourself….
… This is what I did… and this is what I continue to do…
Arlenes ‘remedy’ worked for her… worked for me… and worked for many other women… WHY?… because she learnt what the Essential Elements were that slowed down her ageing process and because her body was given what it needed… her symptoms of ill-health subsided…
‘I know how to help you relieve your symptoms of ill-health…’
… its not rocket science really is it?…. I opened my mind to learn… I expanded my mind to new possibilities… because I realized what I could do in my 30’s did not work once I reached my 40’s… and I am sure you know what I am talking about… to be honest with you…
I know how to help you… I know how to help you relieve your symptoms of ill-health…
… what I am just learning to do… is to talk to you through my newsletters and website and BLOG …. and to share what I have learn’t… and continue to learn… because as a Coach this is just what I love to do…. teach… support… and appreciate what your needs and wants are…
… I am going to launch my book in a few weeks… this has all the research… homework…and essential elements noted and explained for you to keep as a reference for you to work through… step by step…
this is one cost effective way that I can help you… because it is not possible for me meet with all of you individually…. because it is about You… and only You…
‘I need your help…’
… and because I know how you feel… and because I know I hard it is somedays… I also want to support through all of it… I need your help…
.. I believe very strongly that as you begin to feel better… then you… me… all of us… can together help more woman… my blog which I have tried to launch a couple of times is for you to add comments… to share your story in hope that it may reach another woman… I am asking you to work with me… to tell me what your specific problem is… what do I have to do to help you solve your ill-health symptoms of ageing…
