Debunking the Myths of Menopause

Menopause was the unspoken word only 5 year ago and today there is so much more information for women 40-65 years that are experiencing the chaotic menopausal symptoms from hormonal imbalance. Nevertheless there is still plenty of confusion ... I've educated myself reading over a dozen of books on the topic and almost 100 hours of Menopause Yoga Education and Training.  In this article, I am busting a few myths about menopause... for a bit of light edutainment.   

Mind You Menopause workshops I designed take you on a journey of wellness and empowerment. Book in for a Workshop this winter.
