The poetry of perimenopause: a journey to becoming
Jan 08, 2025
perimenopause is not a closing—it is a portal, a sacred passage through which you step into your fullest self. in this season, your body, mind, and soul whisper truths you may have long forgotten, inviting you to listen, to honor, and to transform.
as the tides of hormones ebb and flow, so too do the stories written within your body. this is not chaos; it is a cosmic symphony—a divine recalibration that tunes you to a frequency only those in this journey can hear. with every hot flash, every restless night, your body burns away the old, clearing space for a deeper knowing to emerge.
a time of reclamation
perimenopause calls us home to our bodies, asking us to reclaim what was once dismissed. oestrogen dips, and with it, the veil between the present and the intuitive thins. your body, far from betraying you, is speaking a new language—one of strength, wisdom, and self-acceptance.
each symptom is a signpost: brain fog as a call to slow down, fatigue as an invitation to rest, night sweats as the fire of transformation. these are not afflictions; they are rites of passage, each one guiding you closer to your essence.
a body rewritten
just as the seasons change, your body is rewriting its story. the vibrant energy of youth makes way for a new kind of power—one that is deeply rooted, unshakable, and wise. your body knows this journey intimately, carrying you forward with resilience and grace.
oestrogen no longer defines your vitality; instead, it is your connection to your inner rhythms, your sacred cycles, and the divine energy that pulses through you. the perimenopausal body is not a body in decline; it is a body awakening to its deepest truths.
embracing the feminine essence
perimenopause is not just physical—it is spiritual. it is a reclamation of the feminine essence, a time to embrace rest, joy, and love without guilt. your body calls for rituals that nourish the soul: slow mornings wrapped in intention, movements that ground you, and foods that honor your inner rhythms.
this is a time to let go of outdated beliefs, to release what no longer serves you. it is a call to step fully into your power, to trust the wisdom encoded in your very cells. it is not about survival—it is about awakening.
a becoming, not an ending
perimenopause is not the end of anything. it is the beginning of a new chapter, one that unveils your raw, radiant self. it is the alchemy of transformation, a process that refines you, revealing the glistening truth beneath.
this is your time to flourish, to embrace the shifts as gifts, and to step into the woman you are becoming. let this journey be one of reclamation, of joy, and of profound self-love.
because in the poetry of perimenopause, you are not losing yourself. you are finding her.
