Could you be approaching Menopause?

Have you felt the frustration of sudden sleep struggles? 

Have you been confused by your periods coming either closer together, or farther apart?​

Have you recently felt embarrassed from getting hot and sweaty at the most inconvenient moments?

Has sex not felt as pleasurable as it used to?

Healing

If you are getting close to the age of 40 and can relate to any of these, you just might be in the beginning phase of perimenopause. You may have lots of questions.

 

You are not alone.

 

At Higher Health, LLC we provide safe containers where you can find answers, be seen, and lean into support. Both in our one-on-one Power Talk consults, and through our 8-week support group, "Embrace The Change", we focus on the healing of the WHOLE YOU.

Facilitator and Educator

Celia Layman is no stranger to life transitions and the change that comes with each one. At age 47, she sought naturopathic support for discontinuing the Pill. Then she soon found herself in the throes of perimenopause. Over the 4-year span of her hormone healing journey, she faced many complex health trials alongside the challenges of parenting two young-adult children (current ages 23 and 25). During this time, she and a former teaching colleague opened a small, private preschool in Harrisonburg. Today, at age 53, she has completed her perimenopausal journey and her teaching career. As a brand new grandmother, she enjoys greater health now than she experienced at a much younger age!

 

Influenced by her Masters of Arts in Education, a graduate program at Eastern Mennonite University (completed in 2015) that integrated themes of diversity, team-work & collaboration, peacebuilding, and creating cultures of change, Celia strives to facilitate honest discussions in a safe space. She is inspired to offer hope to others in this sacred life stage. Celia is passionate about what she has learned and invites others to listen and to share, to grow and to heal, and to support each other.

 

Higher Health, LLC was formed in December 2024 with the goal of empowering women on their journey to holistic well-being. With a blend of group education, personal support and community events, we seek to combine natural health solutions and connections with like-minded women as you elevate your level of health.

What is "Higher Health"?

To me, “higher health" means greater vitality: greater physical strength + endurance, clearer mental focus, increased energy, and a deeper sense of calling…HIGHER HEALTH…ON EVERY LEVEL.

 

My personal recovery from Post-Birth Control Syndrome and my simultaneous perimenopausal journey taught me to take better care of my body in ways that improved my fitness and quality of life. Having overall increased energy, heightened mental clarity, having greater physical strength has allowed me to enjoy life more deeply. For me, this hormone healing journey has led to higher health than I had ever imagined.

 

Why does this matter?

Because higher health allows you to love the people in your life from a place of strength and to share your gifts more fully with the world. That’s why. We need you!!
