8 Foods For Hormonal Balance

June 25, 2018 by Shellie Wilson Leave a Comment

We’re all talking and obsessing over our cardiovascular and immune system, but most of the
time, we tend to underestimate the hormonal system and how it plays a crucial role in so many
aspects of our lives.
Right from glowing skin to our reproductive system- the hormonal system is concerned with a
lot, and just including more of these 8 foods to your meals can make a huge difference when it
comes to keeping it working at its best!

Nuts & Seeds
Soaked nuts and seeds and some oils like flaxseed oil, olive oil, fermented cod liver oil etc can
actually balance your hormones wonderfully thanks to their healthy fat content. Plus, they’re
super versatile and you can very easily include them in your meals.

Egg Yolks
Egg yolks, apart from being rich in countless minerals and vitamins including A, D, E, B2, B6,
B9 also contain nutrients like calcium, iron, phosphorus, choline, potassium all of which
contribute to the healthy functioning of the hormonal system.

Avocados
Avocados too, are a rich source of healthy fats which helps the body absorb nutrients more
easily, which has a positive effect on the hormonal balance. They’re also rich in potassium,
magnesium, fiber and folic acid.

Green Veggies
Most green leafy vegetables including spinach, collard greens, broccoli, kale, cucumbers,
cilantro, cabbage, asparagus etc are a rich source of antioxidants, and consuming more of them
has been found to help improve hormonal balance.

Raw Butter
Unclarified butter works on the same concept as avocado does- it gives the body a good dose of
healthy fats which helps keep the hormonal system functioning better, thereby improving
hormonal balance.

Coconut Oil
Coconut oil and pretty much all coconut products are packed with lauric acid which has been
found to be beneficial for the hormonal system. Plus, it also gives your body that quick natural
energy boost.

Clean Protein
Clean protein sources such as beans, lentils, quinoa, organic fed chicken and beef etc can also
benefit the hormonal system of the body and stimulate and regulate the production of
hormones.

Herbs & Spices
Ginger, garlic, cayenne, turmeric, cinnamon, cumin and other healing herbs and spices too,
when included into the diet, can help stabilize the secretion of hormones in the body, and
maintain hormonal balance.

Perimenopause Calm Down Coloring Sheets (For When You Want to Scream into a Pillow)

Free Printable Downloads for Women 40+ Navigating the Hormonal Rollercoaster

Let’s be real—there are days when being a woman over 40 feels like riding a hormone-fueled tilt-a-whirl without the safety bar. Welcome to perimenopause, my friends. If you’ve ever found yourself sweating while standing in front of the fridge, crying over a puppy food commercial, or forgetting why you walked into a room (again), you’re in good company.

That’s exactly why I created these Perimenopause Calm Down Coloring Sheets—printable pages made especially for those “I swear if someone breathes near me I’m going to scream” moments.

What Are Calm Down Sheets?

These aren’t your typical mandala coloring pages. Nope. These were lovingly illustrated with women in perimenopause and menopause in mind—think messy buns, mood swings, and a whole lot of caffeine. Each sheet includes relatable cartoons, cheeky quotes, and stress-relieving doodles that are way more satisfying to color than pretending you’re fine.

They’re perfect for:

Rage coloring during a hot flash

Cooling down after snapping at your partner for chewing too loudly

Unwinding with a glass of wine and a pack of colored pencils

Quiet moments when your brain fog lifts just enough to enjoy something creative

Why Coloring Helps During Perimenopause

There’s science behind this, promise. Coloring helps lower cortisol levels, focus your mind, and gently ease anxious thoughts. It’s like a mindfulness practice, but one that doesn’t require Lycra or a meditation app subscription. And let’s be honest—when the world feels a bit much, giving a snarky mug or frazzled cartoon woman a splash of lavender and hot pink is downright cathartic.
