THE BUSINESS OF MENOPAUSE - A GUIDE FOR WORKING WOMEN >When my menopause kicked in 5 years ago what I wanted was something that would tell me what was happening, and what I could expect. I wanted to understand the choices available to help manage my symptoms so that I could make an informed decision formed on well researched, evidence-based information. I wanted to know how to look after my health and manage my weight as I moved through this mysterious time in my life, but most of what I found was extreme and restrictive or required magic pills and potions. With all the confusion and contradictions, I felt I was left with more questions than answers. It took me a long time to research and gather together accurate information but when I did I realised how much nonsense there is out there. So much scaremongering and downright lies. So I decided to re-write the book! In The Business of Menopause, A Guide for Working Women, I've brought together all the knowledge I've gained from my research into menopause, along with my training as a nutritionist, personal trainer and mindset coach, to create a simple, easy to read manual to help you manage your menopause in a way that works for you. It not only focuses on the short-term management of symptoms but also discusses the health implications of being post-menopausal and offers a holistic, pragmatic approach to your longer-term health and wellbeing. Using my NESST framework you will not only learn about what's going on as you transition through menopause but you'll also get advice and help to manage your nutrition, exercise, sleep, stress and mindset, so you can be healthy and strong in both mind and body. I so wish I'd had this book when I started my menopause journey a few years ago when, like you, I felt I just couldn't get the help I needed. With the right support in place, working women can continue to thrive through menopause and beyond. The book offers advice on how to get the help you need from your workplace and also how to get the best outcome from a visit to your doctor. Written in simple English, The Business of Menopause busts many of the myths surrounding menopause, it explains how you can manage your menopause through medical, non-medical and lifestyle choices so that you can truly find the best solution for you. "In this book, Bev offers up to date, accurate information presented in an easily understandable style to help you steer your own unique path through the menopause. Information on managing symptoms, understanding what is happening in your body and how to manage your working life during this time are offered in a balanced and pragmatic way. The menopause can offer us a unique opportunity to assess our lives and habits, change what no longer serves us and create a new way of being that will support us now and into older age. This book will help you reach the right decisions for you to move forward to the next phase of your life with grace and ease."
