PODCAST EPISODE 421

Feeling tired all the time? If you’re in your fifties and going through menopause, you might be nodding your head right now.  Believe me, I get it.  When I was going through that phase, it was rough.

But here’s the good news that I want to share with you:  It gets better!  In fact, I recently discovered a new groundbreaking book by Lisa Mosconi PhD, called “The Menopause Brain: New Science Empowers Women to Navigate the Pivotal Transition with Knowledge and Confidence” suggests that for most women, brain fog clears up after a couple of years post-menopause. There’s even more good news – on average, women tend to be happier after menopause than they were in their younger years!

In this episode, I share my experience and tips to help you navigate menopause with more ease. Especially in our fifties, we can sometimes become disconnected from our bodies’ signals.  We might not pay attention to hunger cues or ignore early signs of fatigue.  In my view, this is where the concept of becoming a “body whisperer” comes in. I believe this practice can be incredibly helpful during menopause, not just for weight management but for overall well-being.

So, this week, why not join me on a journey to becoming a body whisperer?  Let’s listen to those quiet whispers and see how much better we can feel. Enjoy the show!

Are you battling stubborn weight gain during menopause? Feeling frustrated by diets that just don’t work anymore? Brenda, a woman like you, was in the same boat. Despite her best efforts, the scale refused to budge, and her relationship with food felt hopeless.

PODCAST EPISODE 417

The key to taking back control of your relationship with food  during menopause isn’t about restriction or willpower, but about achieving a calmer, more balanced relationship with food. 

Imagine viewing that “forbidden” ice cream as simply “ice cream in the freezer.” It sounds good, but you don’t have to have it. By detaching the drama from food, you weaken the urge to overindulge. 

In this episode, I will talk about the concept of equanimity and how this over two thousand year old Buddhist practice can help you achieve food freedom. Equanimity is a state of “mental calmness and composure, especially in difficult situations.” I will explain how equanimity can be applied to food choices, particularly those that trigger emotional eating.

This week, try equanimity with food! Pick a food item that triggers urges, challenge your thoughts by acknowledging it neutrally, and remind yourself that you have a choice. Listen in and learn how equanimity can transform your relationship with food  during menopause.

Remember, you are not at the mercy of your urges. By practicing equanimity, you can take back control and create a peaceful, balanced approach to food!
