What do you do for OYM?
I create a soft space for women to connect with their breath. I share guided visualisations to help de-stress and relax.
How did you get into your specialist area?
I’ve always had a huge interest in health and wellness. I spent four years as a skincare specialist and won two awards as a facial expert. I’ve always enjoyed helping women to feel the best version of themselves.
If you feel comfortable, I’d love you to share your experiences of perimenopause / menopause to date.
I went into an early menopause after some extremely difficult events, and the perimenopause was extremely challenging emotionally more than anything. It took a lot of time to get to a place of balance and now thankfully I’m out the other side.
What has been your most significant discovery / positive experience while navigating this time?
The most powerful teaching for me has been to listen to my body. Slow down when I’m feeling exhausted, change my exercise to suit those moments and use breath work to regulate stress and down regulate my nervous system.
Breathwork is a powerful, accessible tool to support relaxation and emotional balance during menopause. Hormonal shifts can heighten stress, anxiety, and sleep disturbances, breathwork helps calm the nervous system and restore inner equilibrium.
By consciously controlling your breath, you signal safety to the body, reducing cortisol levels and easing physical tension.
Breathwork can improve focus, enhance energy and support better sleep, making it a grounding daily ritual. It also reconnects you with your body, encouraging mindfulness and presence.
Whether practiced alone or with guidance, breathwork offers a simple yet profound way to navigate menopause with greater calm, clarity and control.
