Balance & Bloom – A Foot Soak Ritual for Women in Perimenopause and Menopause

A love note from Jimmy Nail Salon to women in their 40s and beyond.

Have you been having trouble sleeping lately?

Feeling warm all of a sudden… or cold from the inside out?

Your heart racing for no reason? Your emotions pulling you in different directions?

Yes, I know. Because I’m going through it too – this mysterious, confusing, emotional journey we call perimenopause and menopause.

It’s the chapter no one really warned us about.

Where your body changes… your emotions shift… and sometimes, you don’t feel like yourself anymore.

You keep going.

You’re still the caregiver, the strong one, the multitasker.

But deep inside, you feel like something is off.

You feel… tired.

A little lost.

Maybe even a little invisible.

That’s why I created Balance & Bloom – A Foot Soak Ritual for Women 40+

Not just to relax the feet.

But to bring you home to yourself.

What’s inside this humble little jar?

Dong Quai – a traditional Asian root known for nourishing the blood, balancing hormones, and calming the nervous system.

It smells like the old kitchen of our mothers – a little herbal, a little sweet, and full of care.

Mugwort, ginger, chamomile, rose petals – ancient herbs that warm your body, ease your restlessness, help you sleep better, and soften your emotions.

Himalayan pink salt + Epsom salt – to help your muscles release tension, to ground your energy, and to remind your feet that they, too, deserve love.

A blend of Lavender, Geranium, Clary Sage essential oils – to reconnect you with your feminine softness, to calm your hormonal waves, and to hold space for your soul.

My ritual is simple…

Pour warm water into a basin.

Scoop a handful of Balance & Bloom.

Place your feet in.

Close your eyes.

And just… breathe.

For 15 minutes, do nothing.

Fix nothing.

Just be.

Let the herbs hold you.

Let your body unwind. Let your soul return.

Because I believe…

Menopause is not the end.

It’s a sacred pause.

It’s the moment we stop for everyone else – and finally start for ourselves.

Balance & Bloom is more than a foot soak.

It’s a moment of return, a whisper of healing, a warm hug from one woman to another.

’m going through this with you.

And I’m here.

One step at a time.

With love and gratitude
