Meditation and guided visualization are such rich, yet underused practices that can help ease many everyday ills, from pain to anxiety to symptoms of menopause. No drugs, no expert, no money needed. And let’s face it, insomnia, hot flashes, and mood swings associated with menopause often have complex roots in our emotional responses to life. As Christiane Northrup suggests in The Wisdom of Menopause, it’s our resentments, not our hormones that spur many of our wild swings. Meditation helps create space to consciously break the link, and to discover new ways of being that don’t cause us suffering. This 5 minute guided meditation comes from a collaboration between Gaiam and The Mayo Clinic Center for Integrative and Complementary Medicine as part of the Mayo Clinic Wellness Solutions for Menopause DVD. From their description of the video:
Menopause is inevitable, but it doesn’t have to be unbearable. Women’s symptoms can vary greatly; learn how to identify yours and make informed decisions about hormone replacement therapy and other strategies for coping with frustrating symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats and fatigue.
