Managing menopause can be daunting to say the least! So many do's. So many don'ts. It's important to remember there's no one size fits all solution. I want to share a part of my story with you in hopes it makes you feel a little less alone.

When I was shopping in Sedona with my daughter last year, I felt an intense heat take over my body and I blew it off as “Oh its 120 degrees, that why I am hot.”

But, I was in air conditioning AND these little episodes kept happening... even when I returned to temperate Ohio!

If you're like me you may find yourself thinking "Was this it? Was I actually in menopause?" I really didn’t want it at all. And I was scared. I thought well, here come the elastic pants and crying spells. I might as well buy my walker now... you too?

But you know what? I love being in menopause! I feel empowered, strong and free!

I love that my body is doing what it is supposed to do.

Yes, I do still burn up like an inferno at times, but I know that’s my body responding to changes. I decided to accept this natural transition with grace and I went on an expedition to learn how to manage it as naturally as possible. Each woman has their own approach to this stage but I am convinced that what can help most is sharing our experiences. 

I hope enjoy "The Gift of Menopause" mini meditation I have prepared for you. If you're thinking menopause "Gift?! Menopause is a gift I would like to return!" I hear you!! Though it may not seem like it, taking just a few minutes to center yourself really adds up. Menopause is a metamorphosis of self-trust. 

Download the meditation and listen on the go- even playing in the background can signal to your body that it is taken care of.
