Our herbalist recommends drinking freely during menopause.
The Menopause is a period of time when it is imperative to look after your body and well-being. Practicing self-care promotes the maintenance of your mental, emotional and physical health. Self-care should be a conscious daily effort that you can introduce into your life with small changes.
Frequent exercise in whatever form is a great way to stay healthy whilst boosting mood and energy. Particularly great during Menopause as the irregularity in your hormonal levels fluctuate your mood can dip.
Avoiding smoking is a beneficial choice to make. Nicotine reduces levels of Oestrogen in the body which is what occurs in Menopause and causes some of the symptoms. Smoking could worsen the symptoms.
Eating well and ensuring your body is receiving the nutrients it needs. This will help ensure a healthy body and mind.
Stay hydrated and make sure you’re are drinking plenty of fluids. During Menopause oestrogen levels drop and oestrogen makes it easier for our tissue to retain water. Not being hydrated enough could lead to lack of energy, brain fog and dizziness. Plus it’s great for your skin.
Getting enough sleep during Menopause is beneficial for your mind and body. Most women have trouble sleeping during this period but take any opportunity to catch up on sleep as it helps the brain and body work more efficiently.
Meditation is a great way to relax and boost your mood. Try taking 5 or 10 minutes to yourself before bed or whenever you get chance in the day. Mediation is also linked to helping relieve hot flushes.
