Reviews

[Azalia · Rating 4 out of 5]

Excellent book that is well researched and very helpful. Provides a lot of peace of mind as to what to expect and why friends are experiencing certain symptoms.
Some of the notes that I took whilst reading this book are the foods that support peri-menopause, such as supplements that might be helpful to a body that is experiencing changing hormones.

There was also some guidance in relation to self care and simplifying your life. I took these notes for myself:

1. simplify & streamline your life
2. set boundaries
3. improve sleep
4. reduce alcohol consumption
5. support eostrogen detoxification
6. avoid endocrine disruptors
7. eat a nutrient dense diet
8. move and strengthen your body
9. spend more time outside
10. build your support crew

Cultivate non negotiables:
Sleep and rest
Health appointments
Exercise
Time alone
Connecting with others
Time outside
Food & Nourishment
Intimacy
Learning
Working hours
Working conditions

The book goes into the importance of these dot points in more detail. I really appreciated reading this book and think I will need to check in with it again repeatedly as the life journey moves forward!
