Connecting the Dots: Oestrogen and the Pelvic Floor

Oestrogen directly influences pelvic floor health by maintaining tissue elasticity, hydration, and strength. When levels dip due to stress, poor sleep, or the shift during menopause, the pelvic floor may weaken, leading to dysfunction. Elevated cortisol from adrenal fatigue can exacerbate these issues, creating a cycle of tension and reduced resilience.

Practices like Hypopressives, deep breathing, and mindful movement restore balance, supporting the pelvic floor and overall hormonal health. By addressing stress, sleep, and posture, clients can regain functional strength and confidence.

The Magic of Menopause: Embracing the Transformation to the Wise Woman Years

Did you know that women, orcas, and pilot whales are the only beings on Earth that go through menopause? This amazing transformation is an extraordinary reminder of our unique biology and the critical role we play in our communities.

In orca pods, post-menopausal females take on a vital leadership role. Known as matriarchs, they use their decades of experience to guide younger generations, ensuring the survival of the group. These wise female whales lead their pods to food sources and navigate challenges, demonstrating the huge value of life after childbearing.

Humans are no different. As we move through menopause, we enter a phase of deeper insight and leadership. Freed from the demands of childbearing and the intensity of hands-on parenting, we step into a time of clarity, wisdom, and purpose—a time to guide, inspire, and nurture not just our families but our broader communities.
