THINGS THAT DECLINE IN WOMEN OVER 40 (unless you do something about it!)
We’re often told this season of life means losing things….energy, confidence, control. But the truth? We have so much more power than we realize. Small daily choices matter🫶🏽 💜 how we fuel our bodies 💜 how we move how we rest 💜 how we manage stress 💜 how we speak to ourselves You don’t need to fix everything at once. You don’t need perfection. You just need a few things that are within your control, like the things I’ve shared here.🫶🏽 And those little changes? They add up to feeling stronger, calmer, and more like you again! 💜

IF I WOKE UP FULLY MENOPAUSAL OVERNIGHT, THIS IS WHAT I WOULD DO
THIS!!!!😍 This post here is based off of my FAVOURITE world renowned menopause doctor, OB-GYN, and woman's doctor.... "If I woke up fully menopausal overnight, this is what I would do to protect my long term health"..... And i couldn't agree more! 🙌🏽 This is not based off of trends or guesswork. Its based on evidence, data and her 25 years as a woman's health doctor.💖 (also note..i ONLY post things i can back up and prove with research, studies , data, and my studies in becoming a certified menopause specialist) First off... GET INFORMED!! Menopause isn't something to tough out. It's something to strategically manage for you bones, your brain, your heart and metabolism!! Your body deserves support and you DESERVE to be listened to and not pushed away, told its "probably just depression", "you're too young", or that you're "overreacting", and "it's all in your head". Second, get your labs and screenings updated. DEMAND it if you have to!! Choose a doctor of clinician who UNDERSTANDS perimenopause and menopause. Did you know that typically doctors only get approximately 5 hours of training in alllllll their years in medical school and residency training on menopause??! FIVE HOURS!! 🤯 That is mindblowing😩 Even OB-GYN programs don't often offer a structured menopause curriculum. This makes me sad.....and THIS is why i am so passionate about learning ALL and EVERYTHING I can to help other women know what they deserve for their health in this time of life.❤️‍🩹 Talk to said experienced doctor about hormone therapy options if you are a candidate to do so. HRT has been a GAME CHANGER for me and many women I know.😍 Go in prepared with detailed information about your symptoms and your health history, (along with your family health history) so that your doctor can decide if you are a candidate to start it. 🏋️‍♀️Next- PICK UP THOSE WEIGHTS!!🏋️‍♀️ The benefits of strength training , especially for women in menopause is essential for everything from keeping your bones strong and stronger bone density, keeping your muscles strong to counteract age related muscle loss, your balance - so that you don't succumb to a nasty fall, better weight management, and SIGNIFICANTLY reduces risks of chronic diseases like type 2 diabetes, heart disease and strokes!🤯 It will also improve your mood and your sleeps by reducing anxiety - and it can even help with the severity of those horrible hot flashes!!!❤️‍🔥

Lets talk about our pelvic floor!! ( Cuz it matters more than you probably think!)
Hi ladies, and happy Sunday! I wanted to make a little post about something i'm learning more about with my menopause certification - and also a topic @Alyssa Furukawa mentioned is a great thing we don't talk enough about! ....Our pelvic floor. The pelvic floor isn’t just about kegels, and it’s definitely not just a “post baby” thing. Your pelvic floor is a group of muscles that supports: ✅ your bladder and bowel ✅ your core and posture ✅ your hips and low back ✅ sexual function ✅ stability during lifting, walking, and just daily life During perimenopause and menopause, declining estrogen can affect muscle tone, connective tissue, and coordination ...which is why symptoms like leaking, heaviness, low back pain, or core weakness can show up even if you have never had kids. Here’s the part many women don’t hear enough...A healthy pelvic floor needs strength AND relaxation. That means: ✅ learning how to breathe properly ✅ coordinating the pelvic floor with your core ✅ not over-clenching all day ✅ using functional strength and mobility work 🌸 Some simple things you can start doing today to support your pelvic floor that don’t need fancy equipment for or hours of work, are: ✨ Breathe before you brace...Slow exhales help the pelvic floor relax and coordinate with your core. ✨ Stop clenching all day...Many of us hold tension without realizing it. Periodically check in and fully relax. ✨ Exhale on effort...When lifting, standing up, or carrying groceries , gently exhale instead of holding your breath. ✨ Walk daily...Walking supports pelvic floor coordination, circulation, and your nervous system regulation. ✨ Train your glutes and hips...Strong hips help take pressure off the pelvic floor and improve overall stability. ✨ Prioritize mobility...Gentle hip and spine mobility keeps the pelvic floor working with your body, not against it. Consistency beats intensity here. A few mindful minutes a day can make a real difference💜 Pelvic floor health = confidence, comfort, and longevity! 💜

If you can sit like this… your hips don’t lie🤣
This deep squat (often called the Asian squat) is actually a natural human resting position. Kids do it easily…but most adults lose the ability because we sit in chairs all day. And as we hit perimenopause and menopause, mobility becomes even more important for keeping our bodies strong and pain-free. This position can help 🫶🏽improve ankle mobility 🫶🏽open tight hips 🫶🏽support pelvic floor function 🫶🏽reduce lower back stiffness 🫶🏽maintain functional strength as we age If it feels impossible right now-don’t worry! That just means your body is asking for more mobility work.🥰 Try holding this squat for 20–30 seconds a day and watch how quickly things start to loosen up. Because the goal isn’t just “being skinny”…The goal is to be strong, mobile and capable for life.💪🏽 Cool vibes… even when the hips are a little spicy. 😏🔥💜
