Moving through menopause
Let's plan out half an hour a day for a week with my 7 day Gentle exercise guide to make us feel alive... lets go day 1!!!!!
🌸 Move Through Menopause: A 7-Day Gentle Movement Guide
Why Light Exercise Helps
During menopause, hormonal shifts can bring changes like fatigue, mood swings, sleep issues, joint stiffness, and weight changes. The good news? Gentle, consistent movement can ease many of these symptoms.
Light exercise helps by:
✨ Balancing hormones – movement reduces cortisol and supports estrogen’s stabilizing effects.
✨ Boosting mood – even a short walk or stretch boosts endorphins and serotonin.
✨ Supporting bone & joint health – gentle resistance and weight-bearing help keep bones strong.
✨ Improving sleep – mindful exercise and breathing calm your nervous system.
✨ Regulating temperature & energy – movement supports circulation and reduces hot flashes.
Each day includes:
🌿 30 minutes of light exercise
💨 A breathing focus
💬 A gentle affirmation or reflection
You’ll need: comfy clothes, a mat, water, and an open heart.

🌼 Day 1: Ground & Glow
