One way or another we as women will go through this, I'll be honest with you I've really struggled with it. I think everyone assumes you just get hot flushes, irritability and a shift in periods, but its so much more. There are at least 34 symptoms! Depression anxiety general low mood, low self esteem, ridiculous mood swings, the wonders of brain fog are just a few. Maybe you wonder why your car keys are in the fridge or why you are unable to string a sentence together or you struggle to sleep even though you're exhausted, and don't get me started on the itchy skin! Basically if you're like me you just don't feel yourself anymore its all a bit bonkers!
This is just one of the reasons we do strength work in classes, it can be so beneficial to women as we age, and it can be an opportunity to talk to others who are quite likely feeling the same or who have experienced it.. Stick with it! x
