Is your period irregular such you are getting your period and then you don’t for 6 months?

You are going through perimenopausal symptoms which can last for 2-8 years until you officially go into menopause aka your crone years.

An immediate remedy would be Shatavari (Asparagus Racemosus). She is an herb that originates in India.

Here are some benefits:

Actions: Adaptogen, immunomodulating, galactogogue, demulcent, hormonal balancing and libido support.

When I first met Shatavari, I was in herbal school and we would work with an herb for one week and meditate with her. I would see how she would respond to my body. When I would meditate with her, I would feel my body feel very juicy and circular. I would feel the cooling and calming affects when working with her. After a few weeks of using her, I would feel very juicy in my orgasms. I had clients also experience hormonal relief, juicer orgasms and just would feel more in tune with their empowered feminine essence.

Many of my menopausal clients love working with Shatavari because they can feel much more cool from their hot flashes, and because they are waking up to their “crone” phase, they can feel a sense of their power come in potent ways. I especially enjoy supporting women while they are in transition to menopause. For some reason, I have a talent with working with menopausal women and if you are needing hormonal support, please contact me here for a 20 minute consultation done online via zoom anywhere in the USA – https://antoinetteyarrow.com/contact.

May your hot flashes cool down and may your health be balance and whole!

Here are ways to connect with plants and the earth.

1. Make an offering to the earth with love, water, a song or whatever you feel inspired to do.
2. When you enter nature be in gratitude for nature, the plants, trees and everything that nature has to offer.
3. Find a plant or tree to connect with. Ask to see if they want to connect back. If the feeling you get is expansion then it’s a yes to connect.
4. When you sit with a plant or tree, don’t go in with expectations. Just sit and see what images, sounds and sensations you feel. Write down all that you feel as this is all valid. These plants/tree beings are communicating with you.
5. Thank the plant or tree with gratitude.

If you are interested in any herbs, I have most available, but also health food stores like Sprouts and Whole Foods will have the kitchen herbs available. Kitchen herbs can be used in your food daily. For adaptogens and nervines, you can purchase at health food store and use in tincture form, tea or powder. Just make sure powder isn’t old and keep in refrigerator.

For hand santizer recipe, the ratio is 1:1 for 200 proof alcohol. If you measure out 30 ml of alcohol, then add 30 ml of water. If you have vodka use 100% alcohol and don’t add any water. It’s already 60% water. Add 10 drops of lavender essential oil to every ounce you make.

If you are interested in a personal and customized session with me, please email me at antoinetteyarrow@gmail.com. I can work with you to figure out the best herbal medicine for you to take based on your constitution.

What I also noticed was that the foods Thai people eat were super spicy and also had high antiviral properties. From what I have heard from different health officials is the virus doesn’t like heat.

So here are some herbs and tips to help you during this challenging time.

Garlic – antiviral, spicy, anticatarrhal, diaphoretic, immunological, immune stimulant. Put as much as you like in food. Put a ton in your food. Take daily. Eat raw if you can but have only have a piece of garlic. If you eat a ton of garlic your whole body will smell and people WILL stay away from you – at least 6 feet!

Ginger – diaphoretic, spicy, carminative, prebiotic, immune stimulant. Make a tea out of it and drink daily. I also like chewing on ginger raw.

Onions – antiviral, anticattarrhal, spicy. Cut up pieces of onions and leave around the house. I do this around flu season to protect me if one of us is sick.

Chilis – spicy, diaphoretic, and antiviral. Corona doesn’t like heat, so sweat it out! Add siracha into your food or cayenne pepper!

Turmeric – antiviral, antioxidant, antiinflammatory, carminative. Helps to protect the cells from viruses. Make into tea or add into food.

Stay safe and take care of yourself!
