Menopause 😟
The menopause and its symptoms and struggles are very much in the media at the moment, thanks in part to the likes of Davina McCall shining a light on just what a debilitating thing this can be for some women.
My own personal journey has been helped so much by creating a programme of self care and wellness to be able to handle some of the awful symptoms that come with this new phase in life.
👍Trying to eat well most of the time (this one is a constant struggle as I have a severely sweet tooth!)
👍 Exercise...making sure I do something each day that moves my body, my go to is yoga as I prefer the slowness of it these days, but I do weights, hiit and just walking each day
👍Water, I try to drink as much as possible to stay highdrated
👍Supplements, anything I come across that may help me I will give it a try and see what happens. My constants are Vitamin D, Zinc, Magnesium and Vitamin B
👍Rest! This may actually be the most important to me. I have to find a balance between keeping busy to keep my mind on an even keel with also making sure I take the time to just be by myself and recharge my batteries (the joys of being an introvert!)
👍and by no means least and the thing I make sure I do every day is my skin care, the menopause has not only hammered my body (I will never have an instagrammable body lol and I realise that I have to just accept that!) but it has hammered my face, the loss of elastin, the loss of collagen, things I am trying to restore.
👍This is where the Face Yoga is such a go to for me, I have learnt through my study the benefits it has with consistency and dedication it can improve your face, your mind, your wellbeing.
