FEELING LOST? TIPS TO CRACKING THE MENOPAUSE CODE
By Susanne McAllister
IF YOU ARE A little bit like me, you might have spent a lot of your time over the last twenty or so years taking care of others. Others, like your children, your husband / partner and / or your career. After the death of my husband seven years ago, I was the sole provider and sole parent for my teenage girls, then aged twelve and sixteen. Having had a less than desirable childhood myself, I was a woman on a mission. I wanted the least damage and pain as possible for my daughters Caroline and Gabriella, no matter what!
I poured my heart and soul into learning all the things my husband had done for us all these years. I had always been the spiritual warm and caring mum that loved to study anything that involved self-development, spirituality and health. My husband was the businessman who did the taxes and paid the bills. He truly was my soulmate and the two years of his cancer battle proved to be a very hard time for our little close-knit family. We had chosen to live at the other end of the world in Australia, with no family. All we had was each other plus a handful of close friends that would forever be grateful for.
I thought I was doing okay, then my oldest daughter moved out to study and that really did hit me hard. But when my youngest daughter turned eighteen, I hit a new low. I experienced total burnout, menopause, and then empty nest syndrome knocked me off my feet! I knew something was seriously wrong when one day I was asked for my address and I couldn’t even remember my house number! I thought I was experiencing the early onset of Alzheimer’s or that there was something seriously wrong with my brain. I felt so low in energy. I felt like crying a lot of the time and in the next minute I would be in a rage! I never slept and I always worried.
What Helped?
I was already a practicing nutritional therapist, helping women to optimize their health, lose weight the healthy and holistic way, and find their passion in life. I was combining positive psychology and mindfulness with supplements, real food and Inner Connection Process (ICT for short. It is a process I had developed when I worked as clinical hypnotherapist). It was time to take my own medicine and to do some serious work on myself. I had to use all the tools that I had learned during the previous twenty-five years and pull them together to heal myself.
Not only did I finally lose the extra twenty-five pounds I had been carrying around for years, but I also found a new way of living. I had re-invented myself and my life and had learned how to take care of myself. I have walked this road, just a few steps in front of you and I would love to be your guide, if you are going through something similar. This is how my book With Sex, NO drugs and Rock’n Roll through Menopause and Beyond was born. This book is a self-help guide focusing on life during and after menopause, including natural remedies, a guide to Tantra, and it even includes chapters for men who support menopausal women.
I really don’t want for you the fear, dread, and uncertainty that surrounds your menopause and it is definitely not true that your best years are behind you.
My book guides the reader through menopause naturally and offers a range of advice for physical, mental, spiritual, and even sexual health.
Here are few examples of what you will find in the book, in addition to the many simple strategies and cutting-edge information:
Tests you really need to know about and questions to ask your Doctor
To HRT or not to HRT?
Common Challenges and what really helps
Which Supplements and Homeopathic remedies to take and why
The emotional impact of Menopause and what to do
How you can keep your symptoms at bay with Hypnosis – breathe – and mind-control
A Low Tox Life for your Body and Home
Essential Oils for menopause
Addressing brain fog naturally
A whole chapter for the BOYS – how your man can help
How to finally make peace with your body
Let’s talk about sex, baby! Tantra is not a dirty word!
But just writing a book was not enough. I really wanted to create a one-stop-shop for women who are looking to go through menopause as naturally as possible. This is how my naturally wise women forty plus lifestyle membership was born. I wanted to reach as many women as possible. There is nothing that brings me more joy than to witness the transformation of a woman who feels alone and past it to a woman who is glowing with confidence and new love for her body and life. And yes, before you ask, this is possible for you too! I know, because I did it and so can you! You’ve got this! But stop trying to figure this out on your own! Let me and other women in our tribe be your
