"Eat healthily, sleep well, breathe deeply, and move harmoniously.” – Jean-Pierre Barral
Your health and happiness in midlife are held up by three pillars – the Holy Trinity of Well-Being:
By establishing healthy habits in these three areas, you can achieve great physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being AKA – you can feel amazing.
These aspects are, of course, important at all stages of our lives, but they are particularly crucial during middle age – a time when our bodies and minds are tested more than ever.
The key to FREEDOM and HAPPINESS in midlife lies in becoming more CONSCIOUS about our health and well-being while becoming confident in our UNIQUENESS.
This practical midlife guide combines all of these areas into an all-in-one resource that will help you shine and thrive, and age with enjoyment and love.
In our guide, you’ll find resources on:
So if you’re a passionate, middle-aged woman who is still hungry for success, happiness and BALANCE, regardless of your midlife challenges, this guide is for you.
Let’s dive in.
There is much debate about when you actually become middle-aged, but most people consider midlife to begin around their 40s-50s.
Ironically, this is when a lot of people start to call themselves ‘old’,
even though they still have half their lives ahead of them.
“Consciousness is the light that shines on the darkness of our existence.”
They say with great change comes great opportunity, and no less is true when it comes to your midlife – even if those changes make you feel like you’ve lost your sex appeal and authority!
The key to enjoying your midlife is to become more conscious of your health and well-being – these must take priority over all else.
Our middle-aged years often free us of the things that prevent us from being who we really are – whether that’s the demands of raising a family or climbing the career ladder.
While many struggle to find purpose during their midlife, it presents a great opportunity to rediscover yourself and start prioritising the things that bring you joy.
Book that spa day.
Reduce your work hours.
Learn to say ‘no’ to those ridiculous favours people have been asking from you (in a polite way, of course!).
Think of yourself like a butterfly, about to undergo a huge transformation.
The creatures who go through the most beautiful and liberating changes can only do so by leaving their past behind.
You deserve to enjoy the next chapter of your life.
People who adopt healthy lifestyles at 50 have a longer life expectancy and are less likely to get major diseases like cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease.
You should commit to your health if nothing else on this list.
I’ll start by saying that I don't like the term ‘midlife crisis’!
I prefer to call it ‘midlife challenges' because it’s simply a bunch of common hurdles to overcome and not signs that you have hit rock bottom.
Contrary to the common stereotypes of people buying flash cars or getting a questionable haircut, the true signs of a midlife crisis are often more introspective and include:
“A midlife ‘crisis’ is a wake-up call. It’s a call to pay attention to your life, to your dreams, to your relationships, to your values.”
The good news is that midlife challenges are just like any other obstacle – all you need is the right resources to overcome them.
I suggest you refer back a couple of sections to ‘How To Shine and Thrive In Your Midlife (Instead of Just Survive)’ to find your answers.
You can also check out our resources page to find tips on how to deal with your midlife crisis (challenges!):
There are many myths and horror stories surrounding the subject of midlife.
Many see it as a point in their lives where they suddenly turn old – that it’s all downhill from here.
That your productivity, health, creativity, and opportunity are in decline.
That you will become less respected and appreciated as time goes on.
That you will never achieve your dreams.
None of this is true, of course, but these are just some of the common myths that the stereotypes and sitcoms would have you believe.
So what’s the truth about midlife ‘crises’?
The most interesting thing about midlife ‘crises’ is that they seem to be a problem specific to Western civilisation only, and not recognised in the East, according to Dr. Gabor Szendi.
The theory is that Western life places huge amounts of pressure on people to become high achievers in their fields, climb the career ladder, achieve their dreams, and enjoy the perfect family life at home.
If these things are not accomplished by midlife, the person feels like a failure, leading to the so-called ‘midlife crisis’.
By this logic, a midlife crisis is a rejection of our humanity and normality, which of course is nothing to get upset about.
So you see, the key to avoiding a midlife crisis is to simply be kinder to yourself.
"To make a difference in someone’s life, you don’t have to be brilliant, rich, beautiful, or perfect. You just have to care.”
Navigating midlife without a personalised, type-oriented health and life coach is like trekking through a jungle blindfolded.
You don’t know what dangers are waiting around the corner, and life can easily trip you up.
On the other hand, having a coach is like swinging happily and confidently through the trees with Tarzan-esque precision!
The purpose of life coaching is to help you figure out how you feel and where you want to be, by reconnecting you with your true self.
Because so much of our midlife challenges are rooted in insecurity, dissatisfaction, or fear, life coaching can do wonders for women throughout their midlife.
It can give you a solid view of how you truly feel, and allow you to put the systems in place to find success, health, and happiness in middle age.
“The more you stick to a positive mindset, the more you are bound to enjoy your ageing process.”
‘Thinking happy thoughts’ isn’t going to cure anyone’s depression, but the power of your mindset should never be underestimated, especially during your midlife.
Look at it this way:
You see, your mindset is far more than whether you’re a ‘glass half full’ sort of person.
It dictates everything from your career path to your relationship choices, and your unhealthy habits.

“Adopting a healthy diet and eating only nutritious food is not a punishment;
it’s a way to treat your body with love and respect.”
Mostly with tempting yet unhealthy junk foods and sweets that offer fleeting pleasure and long-term health problems.
This section is all about rewarding yourself with good health to boost vitality in your midlife, regardless of the changes your body is going through.
Here are some of the most common health problems that women experience during midlife:
We humans have evolved so much to the point where our own cleverness is killing us.
We have figured out how to grow, manufacture, and consume foods unnaturally high in sugar and additives, and it is destroying our health.
We eat so much, yet constantly feel hungry, as much of the food we consume lacks proper nutrition.
As the old saying goes, ‘you are what you eat’, and there is no greater time to make positive dietary changes than during your midlife.
As we age, our bodies produce less collagen, causing dry skin, weaker joints and bones, and the dreaded fine lines and wrinkles.
To stay mobile and youthful, it is important to stimulate our bodies’ natural collagen production, which can be done by consuming collagen-rich foods.
The most important vitamins and nutrients to take during middle age are vitamins D, K, E, B Complex and Magnesium.
These work together to strengthen the bones and joints while keeping the skin healthy, making them integral for maintaining mobility and youthfulness during midlife.
It is important to note that vitamins such as A, D, E, and K are fat-soluble, meaning that they are dissolved in and absorbed via fat.
Therefore, you should take these supplements with fatty foods to increase their absorption rate and effectiveness.
Want to eat healthily but can’t stand the thought of giving up your favourite foods?
Don’t worry.
There are plenty of healthier alternatives that taste just as good. You’ll soon be able to find a full food list of diet do’s and don’ts on our resource page.
"Butyrate could be the vitamin D of the next decade: the sunshine molecule from within." Damman
Here’s something that might pleasantly surprise you – butter can be good for you.
Yes, you read that right!
Butter is a fantastic source of butyrate – an acid that plays a very important and diverse role in the body.
Some of its jobs include gene regulation, cell differentiation, immune modulation, intestinal motility, and diarrhoea control, just to name a few.
Butyrate also acts as an anti-inflammatory agent in the colon,
and may provide relief for those suffering from chronic illnesses like diabetes and obesity.
It goes without saying that grass-fed, organic cow butter has the highest levels of butyrate, with a healthier fatty acid profile and higher omega-3 contents than regular butter.

The best way to boost your immune system in midlife is to give your overall health a boost, so that your body is strong enough to fight infection and illness.
You can supplement your efforts with adaptogenic superfoods that help your body ‘adapt’ to change – a super important quality for women going through menopause!
It also affects your metabolism, hormonal balance, body composition, mood and how effectively you digest and process nutrients and – so pretty much how well you function overall.
This is something we’re seeing more and more of, as modern lifestyles and diets do not create the right environment for a healthy microbiome.
Even more concerning is the fact that an unhealthy gut is the leading cause of many chronic illnesses and diseases.
For this reason, it's extremely important to eat the right foods and encourage rebiosis - the restoration of the intestinal flora.
Taking prebiotics, probiotics and herbal preparations alone do NOT provide the same effect as the Herbaferm concentrate,
which is totally unique in composition and production.
Herbaferm offers a natural solution to today's digestive disorders because it:
And it does this in a completely natural way, using ingredients that are essential to our diets but which are only found in small quantities in the modern diet.
restore a healthy gut microbiome (gut flora),
by replenishing vital substances that were once abundant in our living waters before industrialisation,
but are now only present in small quantities in our modern diet.
Herbaferm drops have a unique effect because they not only treat
but also restore, i.e. soothe the body and trigger the regeneration process for healthier digestion.
Herbaferm drops therefore work, not instead of the body, but for the body, so it can do its job.
The drops have a triple effect:

Studies suggest that intermittent fasting can also encourage the gastrointestinal tract to heal itself.
Intermittent fasting involves fasting for 16 hours a day and eating for 8. It is also very effective for weight loss and boosting focus.
Many people are sensitive to lectins and other plant proteins.
Considering this, you might want to think about avoiding them altogether, or soaking them first before cooking them in a pressure cooker and consuming them in moderation.
Lectins are plant proteins that are found in vegetables, legumes, seeds and grains, and can cause painful or very uncomfortable physical symptoms:
(These symptoms might have other origins as well, but they are commonly linked to lectins.)
The health of our gut plays a major role in our brain health and how quickly we age.
This is why gut health is especially important to take into consideration during our midlife, as it can have a huge impact on everything from our cognitive function to our sleep, and overall happiness.
Adaptogens are nutrients that enhance cognitive function and improve your overall brain health.
They can help your body adapt to change, reducing stress and improving memory, focus, motivation, verbal fluency and more!
Many nootropics have adaptogenic properties – helping your mind and body to adapt to physical, mental and emotional stress.
Magnesium-dense foods can help support a healthy glymphatic system, protect your cognitive function, and reduce your risk of neurodegenerative disease.
Some magnesium-rich foods include:
The following foods contribute to a healthier brain overall:
“Standardising human beings destroys our genius, health, and art.”
Forget fad diets and a one-size-fits-all approach to nutrition – the only real way to give your body what it needs is by factoring in your uniqueness.
Our metabolism is an incredibly complex piece of machinery, which includes our nervous system, digestive system, and the operational processes of our hormones.
In this section, we’ll be covering the various metabolic types, as well as the most effective diets and foods to eat for each one.
Other sections will include:
So be sure to bookmark this guide to ensure you don’t miss out on your personalised metabolic and hormonal type diet!
“Sleep is the golden chain that ties health and our bodies together.”
It’s not just beauty that good quality sleep enhances – it’s your whole system!
Restorative sleep is absolutely crucial for the brain's dedicated waste clearance and replenishment system, known as the glymphatic system, which is the functional analog of the lymphatic system in the brain.
This system is responsible for cleansing harmful metabolic waste from our most sensitive and complex organ, as well as replenishing and distributing vital compounds (such as glucose, lipids, amino acids, and neurotransmitters) around the brain.
During wakefulness, the glymphatic system is mainly disengaged, but it is extremely active during sleep.
Without healthy glymphatic drainage, we become susceptible to a whole host of conditions related to our immune system, endocrine (hormonal) system, cardiovascular system, emotions, ageing, and memory.
In fact, one recent study found that the connection between our sleep and brain health is so strong that people who suffer from sleep apnea are 70% more likely to develop Alzheimer’s.
The hormonal changes we experience during menopause can contribute to disrupted sleeping patterns and insomnia – so no, it’s not just the thought of getting older that’s keeping you up at night!
It affects hormones like ghrelin (the hunger hormone) and leptin (the satiety hormone).
Inadequate sleep increases ghrelin levels and decreases leptin levels, making you feel hungrier throughout the day as if you needed another excuse to comfort eat.
So how can you ensure good quality sleep in midlife?
Caffeine is the most widely used psychoactive drug in the world, with over 80% of the Western population consuming it every single day.
It’s so addictive that one study found that 78% of people would rather give up sex than their daily cuppa!
If you don’t want to give up your cup, you should follow the following caffeine intake advice to ensure minimal sleep disruption:
If you do want to give up coffee completely however, the good news is that the withdrawal effects will only last about a week. After that, you’ll feel much better for quitting.
Even though I fall into the ovarian hormonal type category
(whereby coffee consumption does not negatively affect my health),
I have never been a coffee lover. In fact, it was the enticing aroma of coffee that I liked.
I can't resist having a big cup of it blended with homemade coconut milk, a delightful addition to my late breakfast around 10 AM.
I adore the flavours, sensations, and effects.
It can reduce stress, boost the immune system, and help me face the day with confidence.
Medicinal mushrooms are also anti-inflammatory and contain a high amount of antioxidants, meaning these mushroom coffee blends support my physical health, immune system, and overall vitality!
“Always remember you are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.” – Christopher Robin
Approximately 45% of middle-aged women experience the following symptoms:
And although these may seem like nothing more than mental health issues, they can all lead to poor physical health and chronic illness too.
Here are some things you can do to look after your mental health in midlife:
“Balance is not a passive resting place – it takes work, balancing the giving and the taking, the taking out and the putting in.” Robin Wall Kimmerer
As we progress into middle-age, we are presented with a great opportunity to rid ourselves of things that don’t serve us or bring us stress.
Stress is known as the ‘silent killer’, as it can lead to many chronic illnesses and diseases.
Therefore, actively trying to reduce your stress levels is one of the best things you can do to maintain good mental health in midlife.
Taking adaptogenic coffee in the late morning can help you find balance and peace first thing in the morning.
This adaptogenic ZEN coffee is infused with CBD and Ashwagandha – a powerful adaptogen.
Taken 2-3 hours after awakening, it can help reduce stress, tension and irritability, setting you up well for the day.
Many women fear that they will become less productive in their midlife – menopause can lead to brain fog and external stress that messes with our focus.
So no, it’s not just having a million and one responsibilities that’s messing up your ability to think straight!
This adaptogenic FLOW coffee can help improve mental clarity and focus.
It’s great for both short-term and long-term memory and can reduce brain fog and procrastination.
“Inhale the future. Exhale the past.”
Oxygen is the lifeblood of everything on earth – so it’s strange to us why there’s a lack of focus on our breathing in the health and well-being space.
A lot of self-professed health enthusiasts exercise regularly and eat well, but fail to pay attention to one of the most important aspects of their health – their breathing.
Breathing dysfunctions are more common in women than they are in men, that’s why it’s extra important to factor a good breathing technique into your midlife health routine.
The Buteyko Breathing Technique (BBT) is a form of complementary or alternative physical therapy that uses breath re-education to treat a range of health conditions.
BBT has shown to be effective in improving a number of health-related conditions such as:
Although teachers all over the world tend to use their own BBT practices, the main objective of the technique is to ‘normalise’ the breathing, through:
To give you an idea of the effectiveness of the BBT technique, Buteyko courses for asthma typically reduce symptoms like coughing, wheezing, and breathlessness by 50% within two weeks.
“Exercise is the fountain of youth. What’s the best workout? The one you’ll do.”

It’s a little-known fact that muscle mass directly correlates to our lifespan, affecting our posture, bone health, and metabolism.
But most of us have decreased muscle mass and weakened bones by the time we reach our 40s, which can start to cause serious issues as we age.
We live our lives at our desks and in front of TV screens, rather than lifting, pushing, climbing, and sweating like we did for millennia.
And this kind of sedentary lifestyle leads to health issues like lower back pain, unhealthy blood sugar levels, and sarcopenia – the loss of muscle mass and function.
This isn’t to say that you need to pump iron at the gym every day and strive for a Schwarzenegger physique.
But regular exercise, especially resistance training, can improve mobility, prevent sarcopenia, and maintain our bone health, improving our overall health and longevity.
Did you know that all postmenopausal women experience bone loss and are at risk of osteoporosis?
This is because the oestrogen deficiency caused by menopause increases osteoclastic activity (breaking down bones),
resulting in an imbalance between that and osteoblastic activity (building new bones).
The result is increased bone reabsorption and overall bone loss, making middle-aged women susceptible to osteoporosis.
Women in midlife should eat a diet high in protein to improve their bone health over these years and also engage in strength training to increase bone density.
No! You should not take calcium supplements for your bone health in midlife.
In fact, calcium is just one part of the bone-building puzzle, and taking calcium can be very detrimental to your health.
The health of our bones relies more heavily on other nutrients, such as boron, vitamins D and K, and Magnesium.
In fact, vitamin K does most of the heavy lifting when it comes to calcium regulation in the body, keeping it in bones and teeth rather than allowing it to migrate to the body’s soft tissues.
Therefore, you should aim to have a healthy dose of vitamins K1 and K2 in your diet, rather than damage your body with calcium supplements.
“Everything in the world is about sex except sex. Sex is about power.” – Oscar Wilde.
Approximately 60% of middle-aged women experience urogenital problems, including vaginal atrophy, urethral atrophy, and sexual dysfunction i.e. loss of libido.
The vagina itself changes significantly during menopause, as its mucosa layer becomes drier, thinner, and looses elasticity.
Incontinence often comes as a result of this and is estimated to affect between 3 and 6 million people in the UK.
The issues might feel embarrassing, but they shouldn’t be.
In fact, many of your female friends your age are probably experiencing the same thing!
And there's a simple and natural solution for these issues that we'll be unveiling soon.
“Make the rest of your life the best of your life.”
Let me start this section off by saying that menopause is both an ending and a beginning.
The word ‘menopause’ itself denotes the ending of your monthly menstrual period, but it does not mean it is the end of your good times!
In fact, as I have already covered in previous sections of this blog, your midlife and menopause offer so many opportunities to achieve true happiness, health and success.
Where do we start?
Every woman will experience menopause differently. A drop in oestrogen levels can result in a whole host of symptoms, including:
Although half of the world will experience some of these 34 symptoms, yet the topic of menopause itself is still treated as taboo. It’s not right.
Nearly one million American women have left their jobs due to menopausal symptoms, which is why it is extremely important to talk openly about menopause and its personal and economic impact.
It is unclear why some women experience worse menopause symptoms than others.
However, hormonal fluctuations are the number one cause of symptoms, and everyone will experience these changes differently.
Other factors that can contribute to the severity of symptoms include genetics, lifestyle, and overall health, which is why it is extremely important to take care of your body throughout midlife and beyond.
Adaptogens get their name from their ability to help the body adapt to change.
And ‘change’, of course, is what menopause is all about.
Therefore, adaptogenic supplements and foods are one of the best ways to alleviate the symptoms associated with menopause.
“Touch is the first and last language we encounter, and it always tells the truth. The need for touch never goes away. Touch comes before sight, before speech.
Touch helps us to be at peace with the world.”
It’s not just a relaxing treatment!
Because so many of the symptoms associated with menopause are brought around by an imbalance of hormones and circadian rhythm, massage can provide a great deal of relief to menopausal women.
Face
When it comes to anti-ageing treatments for the face and body, we often tend to focus on the skin and muscles, overlooking the importance of bones!
But bone health is very important, and osteoporosis affects our face too.
After the age of 35, the number of bone-regenerating cells in the face decreases.
Gradually, the bone around our eyes widens, leading to hollowed eyes and flattened cheeks.
After this, the bones of the central face and jaw degrade while rotating back and downwards (it sounds like something from a horror show, but it’s really just something that happens to everyone with age).
The ageing process guarantees that the facial bones lose density, so what can you do to slow down this process?
Exercise Your Face:
Just like the rest of your body, your facial muscles need massage and exercise to stay strong.
Try facial yoga (yes, it’s a thing!) or a facial massage to stimulate bone growth and improve your circulation.
Facial massage can also improve circulation, aid lymphatic drainage, improve elasticity, and stimulate collagen production, making it a great anti-ageing treatment for menopausal women.
It is important to remember though that optimal face and bone health starts with a balanced diet high in collagen and protein.
A diet rich in vitamin D, K, Magnesium and other bone-healthy nutrients can help prevent bone density loss and even reverse it!
Body
Bodily massage can improve circulation, aid lymphatic drainage, and relax the body for improved sleep and circadian rhythm.
“You’re only as young as your immune system” - Graham Lawton.
I love this quote, as it highlights the importance of our health and lifestyle choices when it comes to ageing.
Most of us love a bit of botox, but the best thing you can to do slow down the ageing process is to reduce:
The most effective way to slowly reduce these three things is to heal the digestive system.
Foods containing lectins, saponins, gluten, and phytates can cause leaky gut, inflammation in the bowels which spreads to other organs and exacerbates the ageing process.
Therefore, one of the most effective ways to slow down the ageing process is to avoid foods containing these antinutrients and eat more foods high in protein and fibre.
Intermittent fasting can also encourage the gastrointestinal tract to heal itself to reduce inflammation and oxidative stress.

“Prosperity is not just having things. It is the consciousness that attracts the things. Prosperity is a way of living and thinking. Poverty is a way of living and thinking, and not just a lack of money or things.” – Eric Butterworth
They call it ‘middle-age’ for a reason – you still have half your whole life ahead of you!

Literature has the ability to transport us to another world entirely, or simply help us crack a smile on a stressful day.
Both of those are big wins, and both are equally as important as one another.
I believe that making time to read and laugh should be an integral part of any self-care routine.
Because having a good time is surely what makes life worth living?

“Life isn’t about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.” – George Bernard Shaw
For most people, midlife is the very best time to turn your passions and unique strengths into success, and become the best version of yourself.
It’s the reason why 45 is the mean age of founders in the fastest-growing ventures.
According to MIT Sloan School of Management, a 50-year-old founder is 1.8x more likely to achieve upper-tail growth than a 30-year-old founder.
And there’s a good reason for this.
By middle-age, you’ve probably rid yourself of most of the self-doubt of youth and inexperience and adopted a more confident attitude.
You’ve probably learned to embrace your uniqueness, rather than fight it.
And if you need a little help bringing out the best version of yourself, our midlife self-realisation and self-development guide can help.
