Menopause Lifestyle Solution

A Chartered Counselling Psychologist, Jessica Valentine who supports women, men and families with depression, anxiety, PTSD, anger management, work related stress and other mental health conditions.

I work with people who suffer from anxiety, they may self-harm, have trouble sleeping or get stressed easily- there are many other manifestations of stress and anxiety.”

“I work with people who have high stress at work and want to manage their work day, home life and create a more balanced lifestyle.”

“I work with people who feel down sometimes, but also who have severe depression and can’t seem to get over things quickly.”

“I work with people who would like to explore their sense of self, who they are and how they can become their greatest self.”

Would you like to learn how you can be more positive, happier in life and achieve goals to improve confidence? Would you like to practice mindfulness? You don’t have to speak to a therapist just because you are in a crisis. Many people seek counselling to explore their sense of self, to explore existentialism, to reduce stress and to achieve more of a balanced life.

Dinah began teaching dance and fitness classes 35 years ago whilst an undergraduate and her passion for movement lead her to Pilates which she has taught for 21 years. Her contemporary approach to Pilates is further influenced by her training in and teaching of Gyrotonic, The Franklin Method and Yoga and Meditation. Enabling people to feel confident and strong in their bodies is an important part of moment practice. Dinah’s unique approach to teaching Pilates facilitates an understanding of how our bodies move and how to help ourselves with appropriate exercises. In Dinah’s Cotswold Studio practice she encourages clients to discover their movement potential, whatever their age and condition. With her expertise and experience she provides a professional, caring and enjoyable environment for exercise and wellbeing.

Dinah’s Menopause Pilates is a unique concept to help women exercise through targeted movement protocols for strength, bone density, mobility and fascial release. This is combined with breath work, pelvic floor health and meditation to create an integrated approach to menopause self care. Discussion and journaling are encouraged to increase awareness and education during this vital stage of women’s health.

Sally helps women going through peri menopause dissolve their childhood conditioning through a powerful method called RTT which is done under hypnosis. This means that they get to clear the mindset blocks that might be holding them back from health, vibrancy and abundance. Sally didn’t realise she was experiencing peri menopausal symptoms at age 37! Her stress levels were elevated , she couldn’t sleep, she gained weight, her periods were painful and she fluctuated between anxiety and depression. Realising the link, was a game changer. She is hugely passionate about innovative approaches to health and wellbeing which are rooted in neuro science and her first love is psychology. She spoke alongside world renowned nutritionist Marylin Glenville about how to change your weight by changing your thinking. She has also been featured in The Talented Ladies Club and Coach Magazine.

A podcast collaboration with myself and Sam Palmer ( who I met on instagram) who is the creator and founder of Midlife Makeover. Check out this fabulous vlog, insta TV and instagram on the handles below for more helpful tips and information on the menopause.

We are both from an exercise back ground and passionate about our message of how to 'MOVE THROUGH THE MENOPAUSE" What works in your 20s and 30s won't have the same results in your later years - our bodies react differently to exercise as our hormones become unsettled. BUT as Sam says we still need to MOVE!! :) It's also a lifestyle choice as your belly ' develops its own postcode' you can implement small changes to stop the weight gain. Most importantly you must enjoy the exercise that you undertake WITH support form a community of women all on similar paths.

Here's a little back ground from Sam:

Sam’s career started in the NHS where she qualified as a nurse eventually working as a Sister in NeoNatal Intensive Care. Becoming a mother led her to look for work that didn’t involve night duty but did include her love of teaching so having qualified as a teacher Sam left the NHS to work in Further Education. A desire to do things ‘her way’ inspired Sam and a colleague to become their own boss and set up their own business where for 18 years they taught First Aid, both in the workplace and to private individuals.

Not content with one business, Sam turned her passion for running into something that would, unbeknown to her, go on to touch the lives of many thousands of women. She trained as a running coach and set up a fitness club, Sevenoaks Ladies Joggers, exclusively for women in Sevenoaks, Kent. In 2014 Sam was voted Coach of the year by UK Athletics for both the South East and the UK and has won many other local awards for her tireless work helping women.

Using her years of experience and medical background Sam has turned her attention to the issues that women over 40 struggle with during the perimenopause and menopause. Her newest ( and final she says!) business Midlife Makeover supports women to make simple proven lifestyle changes via an online platform and face to face support.

Sam is in the menopause, still running and often found out walking with her dog or cooking up a health brownie with chickpeas or beans - probably to go with her favourite drink of Champagne!

The menopause affects us in so many different ways. Especially our close relationships. How do we cope whilst holding down a job, having high pressure responsibilities at work - then the menopause interferes!

Fatigue, moods, feeling over-whelmed leading to self questioning. Do you suffer from this or know someone who does?

How do professional women cope at work?

How does it affect your partner? Understanding and being able to talk instead of 'reacting" :)

How healthy lifestyles can be an advantage to your menopause. Do you smoke? Do you drink? But where do you start?

What about the HRT? Or bio - identical hormone therapy?
