Your Perimenopause Toolbox
Over the years I’ve explored many tools, books, and products that support women’s health, nervous system regulation, and hormonal balance.
The resources below are ones I personally use, trust, and often recommend to the women in my community.
You don’t need all of these. Think of them as part of your perimenopause toolbox - supportive resources you can dip into when your body asks for a little extra care.
Your body already knows what it’s doing. These tools simply help support it along the way.

Regulating the Nervous System
(Stress & Recovery)
Many of the symptoms women experience during perimenopause can be amplified when the nervous system is under constant stress.
Supporting the body’s ability to move between stress and recovery is one of the most powerful ways to restore balance. These tools and practitioners can help create moments of calm, grounding, and regulation throughout the day.
Suzy Elks - Transform Now Hypnotherapy
Suzy Elks is a Clinical Hypnotherapist and Coach who supports women navigating
peri-menopause, menopause and post-menopause to feel calmer, more in control, and more like themselves again.
This stage of life can bring anxiety, overwhelm, disrupted sleep, low mood, brain fog, and a loss of confidence that can feel unfamiliar and unsettling. Suzy combines clinical hypnotherapy with practical nervous-system regulation strategies to help women reduce stress and anxiety, improve sleep, restore emotional balance, and reconnect with clarity, confidence and a stronger sense of themselves.
Hypnosis is a gentle, safe and deeply relaxing process where you remain fully aware and in control. It helps your mind and body settle and update old stress patterns so change feels easier and more natural.
Many women are surprised by how quickly things can begin to shift once their nervous system feels supported. You don’t have to navigate this stage on your own - support is available, and real change is possible.
Sessions are available online or in person via Transform Now Hypnotherapy & Coaching.

An acupressure mat designed to release tension, calm the nervous system, and support deep relaxation. Many people find it especially helpful in the evening to help the body unwind.
Living in Alignment with Your Body
(Sleep, Light & Circadian Rhythm)
One of the core pillars of my work is evolutionary biology - recognising that our magnificent bodies evolved in close relationship with natural rhythms of light, sleep, movement, and rest.
When we begin living in alignment with these rhythms, the body is often able to restore balance more easily.
The tools below can help support better sleep, healthier circadian rhythms, and a deeper understanding of how your body responds to daily life.
Infinity Sleep Mask
Sleep can become disrupted during perimenopause. This fully blackout sleep mask offers gentle pressure around the eyes, creating a calming environment that helps guide the body into deeper, more restorative sleep.
Blue Light Blocking Glasses
Screens are one of the worst things we can expose our eyes to before bedtime. These blue light blocking glasses use optical-grade red lenses that block 100% of blue and green light from 400–550nm - the exact range shown in clinical trials to suppress melatonin and disrupt sleep.
Oura Ring
A wearable health tracker that provides insights into sleep, recovery, heart rate variability, and body temperature - helping you better understand your body’s rhythms and responses to lifestyle and hormonal changes.
Nourishing Your Hormones
(Food as Medicine)
What we eat has a powerful influence on hormonal balance, metabolic health, and energy levels.
When we nourish the body with whole, nutrient-dense foods, we provide the building blocks our hormones need to function well.
At the same time, reducing exposure to pesticides and chemicals commonly sprayed on conventional produce can make a meaningful difference. These chemicals can interfere with the delicate hormonal signaling that happens within our cells, making it harder for the hormones we produce to do their job effectively.
During perimenopause - when hormone levels are already fluctuating - supporting the body with clean, nutrient-rich foods becomes even more important.
Bliss Box -
Organic Food Delivery
Bliss Box delivers beautiful organic produce directly from local growers, making it easier to nourish your body with high-quality, nutrient-dense food while reducing exposure to unnecessary pesticides and chemicals.
Reducing Toxic Load
(Supporting the Body’s Natural Detox Pathways)
In our modern world we’re exposed to thousands of environmental chemicals every day - through the food we eat, the products we use on our skin, and the environments we live in.
While our bodies are naturally designed to detoxify, reducing our everyday toxic load can help ease the burden placed on our hormonal and metabolic systems.
The tools below are simple ways to support the body’s natural detox pathways and reduce unnecessary chemical exposure.
Earth’s Kitchen Natural Sunscreen
Many conventional sunscreens contain chemical filters that can disrupt hormones. This zinc-based sunscreen provides effective sun protection without the chemical ingredients often found in traditional sunscreens that may place additional stress on the body.
Honest Skincare
Castor Oil Wrap
Castor oil packs have traditionally been used to support lymphatic flow, liver health, and the body’s natural detoxification processes. These wraps make it simple to incorporate this gentle detox ritual into your routine.
Think Dirty App
This simple app allows you to scan everyday beauty and household products to see what ingredients they contain and how they may impact your health.
It’s a powerful way to become more aware of the chemicals we’re exposed to and make more informed choices.
Your body already holds deep wisdom. Think of these resources as part of your perimenopause toolbox - gentle supports you can draw from when you need them, as you learn to listen to and work in partnership with your body.
