This World Mental Health Day, discover why nervous system care is mental health care — and how to reclaim your feminine rhythm.
Every October 10th, the world pauses for World Mental Health Day.
For many, the conversation begins and ends with the mind — mindset shifts, therapy, or stress management. These are all valuable, but they only tell part of the story.
Here’s the truth I’ve learned after working with women for years: mental health isn’t just mental — it’s embodied.
Your hormones, your nervous system, your feminine flow — they all shape your mental state. And during perimenopause and menopause, those shifts can feel overwhelming if no one has ever taught you how to honor them.
How Your Mental Health is Connected to Your Body
• Hormones + Mood: As estrogen fluctuates, it impacts serotonin and dopamine — the very chemicals that stabilize mood and motivation. No wonder perimenopause and menopause can bring anxiety, rage, or depression.
• Nervous System + Anxiety: Chronic stress keeps your body stuck in “on” mode. This shrinks your window of tolerance, leaving you edgy, reactive, or flat-lined with exhaustion.
• Energy Flow + Emotion: When you ignore your body’s cyclical wisdom, you push yourself into survival mode. Your system responds with PMS flares, burnout, or emotional shutdown.
👉 This is why nervous system care is mental health care.
On World Mental Health Day, let’s expand the conversation. Healing isn’t about fixing what’s wrong with you — it’s about learning to work with the rhythm and intelligence that’s already inside your body.
This is exactly why I created The Medicine Within.
It’s a 6-week journey to reclaim your feminine intelligence — through your body, not in spite of it.
Inside, you’ll receive:
✅ Somatic practices & rituals for every inner season — to regulate your nervous system and expand capacity.
✅ A 15+ page workbook — to anchor your learning and track your growth.
✅ 40+ seasonal recipes — to stabilize mood, blood sugar, and hormones.
✅ 6 weekly live classes with forever replays — one for each inner season.
We started on September 30th — but it’s not too late. You can still join, catch the replays, and walk this journey with us.
This World Mental Health Day, make the choice to support your whole system — mind, body, and spirit.

Mental Health Break Meditation
As the season shifts into autumn, take five minutes to pause and recenter. This short guided meditation invites you to release stress, breathe in balance, and honor your mental health. With each inhale, nourish your energy; with each exhale, let tension fall away—leaving space for calm and gratitude.
Dedicate 30 minutes of your day to journal and reflect on these questions:
Body as Mental Health
Where in my body do I most often feel stress or overwhelm — and what might that sensation be trying to tell me?
Hormones & Mood
How have shifts in my cycle, perimenopause, or menopause shown up in my emotional health — and how could I meet those changes with compassion instead of blame?
Nervous System Awareness
When do I notice myself slipping into survival mode (fight, flight, freeze, or fawn) — and what helps me return to safety?
Psychedelic medicine offers a powerful path to healing—releasing trauma, rewiring thoughts, and restoring balance. In a safe, supportive setting, it fosters clarity, connection, and transformation.
