Herbs for Perimenopause and Menopause: Navigating the Transition with Confidence with Maria Noël Groves, RH(AHG), Clinical Herbalist
 

Happening- October 13th @ 2pm PST

Perimenopause and menopause can feel like hellfire for some of us, and like a beautiful metamorphosis into more radiant health for others. Most of us land somewhere in between. Either way, the hormonal fluctuations and shifts that come with this transition affect far more than just hot flashes, and as herbalists, having solid, nuanced knowledge in this area is essential. The bulk of the population seeking herbal support is peri- and post-menopausal, and they deserve a practitioner who really knows their stuff.

In this class, Maria Noël Groves, of Wintergreen Botanicals brings nearly three decades of clinical experience (the bulk of her client load has always been peri- and post-menopausal folks) as well as her own personal journey through this transition. Her approach is grounded, evidence-informed, and deeply practical.

We'll explore the wide range of ways hormonal shifts show up in the body, including some that might surprise you:

• Hot flashes, night sweats, and sleep disturbances
• Vaginal dryness and changes in sexual health
• Mood shifts, anxiety, and brain fog
• Increased risk for inflammation, blood sugar instability, and cardiovascular changes
• Bone loss, connective tissue changes, and constitutional dryness
• Thyroid and autoimmune considerations
• And more

Then we'll dig into the herbal and natural support that actually helps, covering:

• The how and why behind hormonal fluctuations and why they affect so many body systems
• Why Western lifestyles seem to amplify negative menopause symptoms (and what we can do about it)
• Core foundational support for navigating this transition well
• Specific favorite herbs and differentials for individualized care
• Herbs alongside or versus hormone therapy and how to think through that conversation with clients
• Celebrating the beauty and benefits of this phase of life and how to support clients in doing the same

Maria is the award-winning author of Body into Balance (used as a textbook in herbal and nutrition programs worldwide), Grow Your Own Herbal Remedies, Herbal Remedies for Sleep, Herbal Gut Health, and an upcoming book on perimenopause & menopause coming out in 2027 (🤫 ssshhhh, the masses don’t know yet). She also runs Wintergreen Botanicals from her space in New Hampshire. She's as warm and approachable as she is oh so knowledgeable, and you're going to love learning from her.

Come ready to walk away with real clinical tools, herbal specifics, and a deeper appreciation for this powerful transition time in our lives
