Dr. Hansel explains menopause the best: “Basically, your hypothalamus, one of the regulatory systems in your brain, essentially yells at your ovaries to ovulate, and your ovaries yell back, ‘I’ve got nothing!’” The brain is still looking for that estrogen release from the ovaries, and when it doesn’t get it, it floods the body with heat, often at nighttime”.

“You’re sound asleep and everything is fine, until suddenly you are overwhelmingly hot, which makes you feel like you are being smothered. You throw the covers off because you’re sweating, then the sweat evaporates and you’re chilled,” Dr. Hansel described. “Sometimes, you can’t go back to sleep, or maybe you get back to sleep, and you have another hot flash. Sleep becomes very disrupted.”

It’s that lack of sleep, ongoing for 3 to 10 years, that causes mood swings, irritability and forgetfulness. The cognitive, memory and mood concerns all stem from sleep deprivation. 

You probably know strength training is super important for women during and after menopause to help prevent age-related declines in muscle and bone tissue.

To me it was the plant-based diet and daily exercise routine that helped me to reduce hot flashes and other menopause symptoms

Now… Any successful venture requires a plan that describes its mission and specifics on how to achieve it — without one, you have no idea where you’re starting, where you’re going, or how you’ll get there.

Think about the change YOU want to make. Self-care isn’t selfish!

We will create a plan that will fit YOUR needs and lifestyle. Little changes to your current exercising and eating style can add up to big results. There’s nothing worse than investing your time, effort and money into something only to receive little or no return.

I’m asking you to trust the process. You can always go back to what you’ve done before — if it’s worked for you. But if it hasn’t, then what do you have to lose?

If you are ready to improve your health and transform your body, then YOUR Fitness Retreat is absolutely right for you!

Sounds like a deal? Let’s do this!
