These are the habits people hate because they work.
1) The “Protein Anchor”
Aim for 25–35g protein in the first meal.This reduces blood sugar chaos and 3pm cravings.
2) The 2-minute downshift
Before meals or meetings:
- 5 slow nasal breathsIt sounds daft until you realise you’ve been living in fight-or-flight since 2019.
3) The lunch walk
10 minutes after lunch.Helps glucose control and clears brain fog better than another coffee.
4) Heat-management basics (for hot flashes/night sweats)
- Cool bedroom, breathable bedding
- Alcohol late can worsen symptoms
- Large late meals can worsen sleep fragmentation
