The Mindful Menopause Workbook: Daily Practices, Paperback

The Mindful Menopause Workbook will help you bring mindfulness into your day-to-day activities during menopause with teachings, exercises, and meditations. Learn how to recognize and achieve a more balanced, peaceful, and joyful orientation to menopause and beyond.

The Mindful Menopause Workbook provides a year's worth of daily teachings and prompts that offer you moments for self-care and self-development--mentally, physically, and spiritually.

Each daily teaching includes space for you to write about the thoughts, emotions, or sensations that are arising for you.

This is followed by guided meditations and breath exercises that promote body-mind unity through deep relaxation and expanded peaceful awareness.

The book also includes an in-depth illustrated guide to yoga postures and outlines sequential poses that foster greater ease and awareness of your body.

Mindful Menopause sensitively addresses issues that commonly arise during menopause, and gives recommendations for managing symptoms such as insomnia, fatigue, low energy and libido, anxiety, depression, hot flashes, physical discomfort, poor digestion, and weight gain.

Together, these teachings, exercises, and reflections will help you approach menopause mindfully and joyfully, allowing you to deepen your practice and transition gracefully into this new stage of your life.
