Perimenopause: A special reparenting opportunity

When Your Nervous System Gets Hijacked

Maybe it's something your child does...or doesn't do...


You get upset.


You may get aggressive with your voice/body, flee the scene,

shut down, or even give in to a ridiculous request.


Your nervous system has been hijacked.


And you feel out of control.


Then there's the aftermath….


'I wish I hadn't resorted to being rough with my body.'


'I regret using my harsh, yelling voice.'


'I wish I hadn't shut down and left my child alone.'


'I regret giving into my child's demand even though I knew it wasn't good for me/them.'


The shame and regret creep in.


'If only I had stopped myself from letting my emotions take over.'


'If only I had taken the opportunity to PAUSE for even a brief second…'


'If only I had taken a deep breath.'


...Maybe you could've had a different outcome, a different story to tell...


Maybe.


You are given more opportunities.


But, it's not easy.


And it keeps happening OVER and OVER again.


I get it, I've been there.


And I know through my own personal transformation, it doesn't have to be this way...


The truth is, the solution to your problem isn't as simple as just pausing and taking a deep breath.


This is where I come in.


This is when you get the help you need so that you can start having different outcomes. Outcomes that leave you feeling satisfied and even joyful...

I’ve made the conscious choice to reject the toxic negativity I see and hear surrounding the topic of perimenopause. To clarify, I’m choosing to view this phase in my life as a natural transition and a sacred invitation. An invitation to show up for myself - like a parent does for their child. To show up in a way that’s conscious and supportive. (NOT judgy and shaming) Feeling called to join me? I’m choosing to recognize that big changes are, indeed, taking place… Reminiscent of the pre-teen and teen years… Anxiety, irritability, pimples, headaches, inflammation, forgetfulness, shifts in sleep patterns, feeling extra tired, body appearance changes, etc. A recalibration of hormones is, indeed, taking place. And I’m choosing to have faith in my body’s process. And if we REALLY pay attention and listen, we gain insight into ways to offer ourselves support… It’s an opportunity to reparent ourselves, by offering compassionate, responsive care. Examples: -Resting when we feel tired, as opposed to ‘pushing through.’ -Noticing and validating uncomfortable feelings that manifest. -Replacing body-shaming tendencies with love and appreciation. Want to join me in cultivating a new, kinder and more functional relationship with yourself? And regardless, of what life stage you’re currently experiencing, I’m here to help.
