TOPICS COVERED

1. BRAIN HEALTH

Hormonal fluctuations during perimenopause can affect cognitive function, including memory lapses, focus, and mental clarity. We’ll explore ways to nourish your brain through specific nutrients and lifestyle adjustments that promote cognitive vitality.

2. INSULIN RESISTANCE

Perimenopause can increase the risk of insulin resistance, contributing to weight gain, "cortisol belly" and fatigue. Learn how balanced nutrition, movement, and targeted supplements can help regulate blood sugar levels and support metabolic health.

3. HOT FLUSHES

Hot flushes are one of the most common and uncomfortable symptoms of perimenopause. We'll discuss natural remedies, including dietary adjustments, herbal treatments, and stress-reduction techniques to minimize their intensity and frequency.

4. HEART HEALTH

Declining estrogen levels during perimenopause can impact heart health. Discover how nutrition, exercise, and key supplements can support cardiovascular function and reduce the risk of heart disease during this transitional phase.

5. SLEEP

Difficulty sleeping is a frequent complaint among women in perimenopause. This session will offer natural solutions to improve sleep quality, including sleep-promoting herbs, relaxation techniques, and lifestyle changes to help you get restorative rest.

6. MOOD CHANGES, ANXIETY and DEPRESSION

Mood swings, irritability, and anxiety are often linked to hormone shifts in perimenopause. We'll discuss how to balance your mood through good gut health, diet, supplements, and stress management practices that support emotional stability.

7. BONE HEALTH

Bone density loss accelerates during perimenopause, increasing the risk of osteoporosis. Learn about the nutrients, lifestyle habits, and weight-bearing exercises essential for maintaining strong bones and preventing fractures.

8. MUSCLE HEALTH

Joint pain and muscle stiffness can become more pronounced as estrogen levels drop. We'll focus on natural approaches to supporting musculoskeletal health through anti-inflammatory foods, proper movement, and key vitamins and minerals.
