Navigating the peri/menopause phase can be overwhelming for women, and I completely understand how it feels. As women, we often try to manage multiple roles and responsibilities, and this can take a toll on our mental and physical health. It's important to recognize that it's okay to say no and prioritize self-care.
In the latest edition of Hello, Hot Flash, I share my personal experience of neglecting self-care and as a result, feeling overwhelmed. I talk about managing and overcoming the challenges of overwhelm and emphasize acknowledging the root causes, staying present, and ditching multitasking.
Let's explore some ways to recognize our limitations, seek help when needed, and embrace self-care. I'll guide you through practical tips like deep breathing exercises, task swapping, and setting boundaries to help you regain control and find balance during perimenopause.
