Empowering Menopausal Women Through Fitness, Nutrition, and Reiki
Menopause is a time of significant change. It’s not just about the end of menstruation but a phase where your body, mind, and spirit undergo transformations. Many women experience symptoms such as hot flashes, weight gain, mood swings, disturbed sleep, and a feeling of energy imbalance.
My goal is to support you through this transition with a personalised nutrition and fitness training plan, this can be coupled with the healing energy of Reiki, helping you to feel balanced, energised, and strong.
Understanding Menopause: The Changes and Challenges
Menopause can bring about various challenges, including hormonal fluctuations that contribute to physical and emotional changes. Common issues include:
Weight Gain: Changes in hormone levels can lead to an increase in belly fat and make weight
management more challenging.
Bone Density Loss: There’s an increased risk of osteoporosis as estrogen levels drop.
Mood Swings and Sleep Issues: Hormonal changes can also affect your mood and sleep quality, leading to fatigue and stress.
Decreased Muscle Mass: Ageing and hormonal changes can lead to a loss of muscle mass, affecting strength and metabolism.
How Can Personal Training Help
My personal training programs are designed with your unique needs in mind. Here’s how I can help:
Customised Fitness Plans: We focus on strength training to combat muscle loss, improve bone density, and help manage weight. The exercises are tailored to your fitness level, ensuring a safe and effective workout.
Nutrition Plan: Understanding that diet plays a crucial role in managing menopausal symptoms, I provide a nutrition plan to promote a balanced diet that supports hormonal health and weight management.
Accountability and Support: Regular sessions with me mean you have a dedicated support system to keep you motivated and on track.
The Healing Power of Reiki
Reiki, a form of energy healing, can be a powerful tool in managing the emotional and physical challenges of menopause. It works by promoting relaxation, reducing stress, and bringing about emotional balance. Here’s how Reiki can complement your fitness and nutrition plan:
Stress Reduction: Reiki sessions help to calm the mind, reducing stress and anxiety, which can exacerbate menopausal symptoms.
Energy Balancing: By encouraging the flow of energy, Reiki can help in restoring a sense of balance and well-being, crucial during the menopausal transition.
Enhanced Well-being: Combined with personalised fitness and nutrition, Reiki can support overall health, helping you to feel more connected and in tune with your body.

I was first introduced to Reiki and it’s benefits by having a reiki session with Nat, I loved how focussed it made me feel. I have tried mediation in the past and never really felt like I knew what I was doing. After a few sessions I was really interested in how it worked, Nat has taught me so much about the seven chakras and how to help balance my stresses and emotions. I use reiki now for my own well-being and self-care, something that I never thought I’d be able to do. If anyone is interested in reiki or meditation, definitely speak to Nat! To get a good idea of what is involved, try one of her meditations session, I’ve been to a few and they are fab! Xxx
I can’t express enough the difference I feel after the class last Saturday. It’s really opened my mind and not only that but let me no the things I feel and do I’m not in my own there’s other feeling the same way! The class and of course Natalie were so supportive. The best thing I took from it was learning to acknowledge the things I’ve got going on in my life that I struggle with can be made better. It’s brilliant to no there are people dealing with similar things and I’m not on my own. Where all so different with different things going on but at the same time we all have something in common:). Thank you so much Natalie, and I can’t wait for the next one !! And our future reiki together 😙
Thank you so much for allowing me to be part of the group meditation session on Saturday. Being such a busy person and a bride to be it was so helpful to learn ways to relax and clear the mind. My mind felt so clear I could have drifted off to sleep for hours when I got home 😊 As you know I overthink everything so learning techniques to manage this has already started to help me day-to-day. I am trying to find 10 minutes out of every day to practice meditation and relax my mind. Thank you for all your support Nat.
Had my first group meditation with Nat, and like I knew I would, I really enjoyed it! For my first time, I really didn’t know what to expect and it’s not usually my kind of thing to do but after it. I’m already putting things into practice! Really good for us over thinkers! & really calmed my mind x
In the last seven months, I have learnt so much about reiki, self-care and the different chakras. I am a psychologist and people are surprised when I tell them I go to reiki but it has genuinely helped me to understand and manage stressors in a different way and it has given me a way of stepping back and keeping calm. It’s not always easy to do and it’s something that I’ll need to keep focused on but it is definitely the positive learning that I’ve taken from 2019! Nat has always taken the time to explain everything and I enjoy the treatments but the attunement and being able to use reiki energy for self-care has been amazing.
Having attended my first group meditation with Nat, I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to learn more about the different chakras and also take away some helpful and useful tips to deal with what life can throw at you. The setting is a lovely quiet cabin which is warm and cosy. The rest of the group are like-minded and you soon lose any apprehension about attending. The session quickly goes and I could not believe the end seemed to arrive so quickly; it had seemed like 10 minutes and not an hour and a half. Nat herself is friendly and very much down to earth and makes you feel relaxed and involves the participants to the level each individual feels comfortable with. There are no competing egos. As mentioned at the beginning it is a session I would highly recommend.
Prior to the session I’d slept really well and was excited about being attuned to Karuna Reiki.
My introduction to reiki was after watching a programme where someone was given it and they had the most powerful release of pent up feelings and emotions that I wanted to try it to see if it could heal some of my past experiences. I then completed Levels 1,2 and 3 in Usui reiki.
I felt Nat was the perfect person to attune me in Karuna Reiki. I’ve received several sessions with her and I always feel connected to her and I wanted to develop my reiki learning.
My aims are to learn new symbols so I can apply them to myself and fully embrace the Karuna philosophy to both myself and my family.
The course presentation was great. Nat is very relaxed and is very natural in her delivery of the course. She is passionate about helping others and is always keen to make sure you understand what is happening and will explain everything. The location is perfect, you feel connected to nature and it is warm and receptive to good energy.
Nat definitely treats you as an individual. She will perform attunements intuitively and if she feels you need a symbol in a specific place she will apply the reiki to that area so you feel it is very personally tailored to you.
Nat answered any questions I had and there was nothing I felt I’d missed out on or didn’t understand. It was a thoroughly enjoyable experience and I’d highly recommend Nat and the course.
