How Menopause Affects the Brain; Interview with Dr. Christiane Northrup

Have you ever noticed how hormonal changes of menopause affect your mental functioning?

When I started going through menopause, I started noticing my energy was down, my focus was affected, and I felt really bad. But do we really have to suffer? Can we do something to improve?

Would you like to learn some practical tips on how to improve your brain functioning despite all the hormonal shifts and turn this season into a time of personal empowerment?

In this episode of ‘Happy and Healthy Mind with Dr. Rozina,’ our guest Dr. Christiane Northrup shared some techniques for mind-training and self-expression along with helpful tools for creating balance between your mind and body so you can go through or help someone who is going through the menopausal transition with ease.
