The list of interventions is a really helpful signpost for those looking to find a way of dealing with the unsettling times that the menopause or any kind of change can bring.
It’s a very natural part of life for a woman, so it’s important we each find our own “way” with it, by approaching it with greater awareness it can be a truly enriching time of transformation.
Thank you for sharing Janette.

I shall keep the list by my bedside and select a different intervention or activity as each resonate with me and my circumstances.

I will certainly be following this author who has a handle on the subject matter superbly well.

We need far more of this open discussion and sharing, so that women can be empowered through this incredibly transformative period of their life. A fabulous article with some really positive and insightful suggestions. Thank you Janette for bringing such light and guidance to the subject, no doubt you will help countless women with this enquiry.

It’s part of our journey forwards…and I would say the menopause is a transformative time in lots of positive ways. We might be letting go periods….wayhay! but we are gaining a stability and understanding of ourselves which once the choppy waves of adjustment subside, we are able to feel the calm waters of a deeper womanhood.
