I sometimes refer to this third phase of a woman\u2019s life as her \u201cSecond Spring\u201d, taken from Traditional Chinese Medicine philosophy. It represents one of the most significant shifts in a woman\u2019s life \u2013 on par with puberty and pregnancy. And, as such, it deserves the same respect. However, it is still a major change, and we humans often resist change. Nature is wise and gentle, however, and generally provides us with a considerable period of time to adapt to these new changes gradually, smoothly, and harmoniously.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div data-breakout=\"normal\">\n<p id=\"viewer-85b13\" class=\"a4yOF NlrTp WzoeH SeNKp\" dir=\"auto\"><span class=\"lMv7L\">There are many natural ways to help a woman transition gracefully and joyfully into this powerful phase of her life. One of these natural methods is Flower Essence Therapy. Flower essences are gentle but powerful remedies made from the flowers of various plants. This is an energetic form of healing that can address mental and emotional, as well as physical, symptoms.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.herbsofgrace.com\/Homeopathy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/bach-flower-therapy-1543139_1280.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1349 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/www.herbsofgrace.com\/Homeopathy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/bach-flower-therapy-1543139_1280-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"525\" height=\"350\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.herbsofgrace.com\/Homeopathy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/bach-flower-therapy-1543139_1280-1024x682.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/www.herbsofgrace.com\/Homeopathy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/bach-flower-therapy-1543139_1280-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.herbsofgrace.com\/Homeopathy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/bach-flower-therapy-1543139_1280-768x512.jpg 768w, http:\/\/www.herbsofgrace.com\/Homeopathy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/bach-flower-therapy-1543139_1280.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 525px) 100vw, 525px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div data-hook=\"rcv-block10\"><span class=\"lMv7L\">Perhaps one of these essences can help ease you through this period of your life:<\/span><\/div>\n<div data-hook=\"rcv-block10\"><\/div>\n<h2 data-hook=\"rcv-block10\">Walnut<\/h2>\n<p><span class=\"lMv7L\">This flower essence can help a woman adjust to the hormonal fluctuations and emotional changes that can occur during peri-menopause and menopause. Many women also find it helpful for hot flashes. It is a remedy that is useful during times of change and can help us to adjust to the shifts that are taking place.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Cherry Plum<\/h2>\n<p><span class=\"lMv7L\">This remedy can help restore calm and a sense of control when overwhelmed by hot flashes, intense emotions, or irrational explosiveness. Cherry Plum is for the woman who fears that she is going to lose control of herself.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Olive<\/h2>\n<p><span class=\"lMv7L\">This flower essence can restore your energy when you\u2019re suffering from sleepless nights. It can help when there are feelings of complete exhaustion, where there are no reserves of energy left, when exhaustion occurs at the physical, emotional, and psychological levels so that the smallest task becomes an insurmountable obstruction. Olive can bring peace, restoration, and balance.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Scleranthus<\/h2>\n<p><span class=\"lMv7L\">This remedy can bring back balance to the woman whose swinging moods find her feeling joyful one moment and crying in despair or yelling in frustration the next. It is also for those who can\u2019t make up their minds and thus never commit to any clear decisions. When a woman is clearly out of balance &#8211; but is constantly seeking to find that balance and clarity of mind, Scleranthus can help her to make decisions quickly and with intuitive confidence.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Crab Apple<\/h2>\n<div data-breakout=\"normal\">\n<p id=\"viewer-4gtpv\" class=\"a4yOF NlrTp WzoeH SeNKp\" dir=\"auto\"><span class=\"lMv7L\">This essence is also known as the cleansing remedy. Often times, as a woman\u2019s body changes during and after menopause, she can become disillusioned with herself and have a hard time identifying with the beauty in the changing look and feel of her physicality. Crab Apple can help her to feel better about herself and her body. It can help nourish a woman\u2019s self-image, and restore her confidence.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div data-hook=\"rcv-block29\"><\/div>\n<div data-breakout=\"normal\">\n<p id=\"viewer-2fgm6\" class=\"a4yOF NlrTp WzoeH SeNKp\" dir=\"auto\"><span class=\"lMv7L\">Have you used Flower Essence Therapy? <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"a4yOF NlrTp WzoeH SeNKp\" dir=\"auto\"><span class=\"lMv7L\">What were your results? <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div data-breakout=\"normal\">\n<div id=\"viewer-9tq7n\" class=\"a4yOF NlrTp WzoeH SeNKp\" dir=\"auto\"><span class=\"lMv7L\">If you are interested in working with me to help you navigate the changes of mid-life,<\/span> leave me a comment and let me know!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The last third of a woman\u2019s life can be the most inspiring and fulfilling time of her life, filled with freedom, joy, and unprecedented creativity.
