Alison is joined by Amita Sharma in a conversation discussing women in midlife and the importance of understanding perimenopause and menopause. Amita shares her personal experience of being caught unprepared for perimenopause and emphasizes the significance of addressing hormone fluctuations. She explains that perimenopause is a gradual process leading up to menopause, highlighting the various symptoms women may experience, such as hot flashes, sleep issues, and weight gain.
Transitioning to menopause, Amita stresses the potential risks of developing chronic conditions post-menopause, including diabetes, osteoporosis, heart disease, dementia, and cancer. Amita encourages women to adopt a holistic lifestyle early on to avoid these health challenges in later years.
They emphasize the importance of self-care, starting at an early age, and Amita provides practical tips for holistic health, including dietary changes, exercise, mindfulness practices, and detoxification. They underline the need for intentionality in self-care and the simplicity of incorporating basic practices into daily routines for long-term well-being.
