The MyMT™ Kitchen: My Mediterranean ‘Stew’ is a winner for all the family.
Dietary controversy has followed women for decades, perhaps gaining greater momentum as the emergnece of the modern fitness industry and gym culture intersected with societal changes in weight gain. But many of these diets are usually short-term quick fixes. After working in and around the fitness industry for over 30 years, I can tell you […]
Is your overactive bladder keeping you awake in the night?
It wasn’t just hot flashes and night sweats that were waking up Romany night after night – it was needing to pee as well. I know that menopause and frequent urination affects many of you too. Before the world turned into chaos, I was traveling throughout New Zealand, Australia, and the United Kingdom sharing my […]
“Nobody was understanding the connection between all of our symptoms, including insomnia and weight gain.”
The conversations in my private coaching group are amazing. Women from around the world learning that, for years, our menopause symptoms have been looked at in isolation, rather than from a ‘total body’ approach. “This makes so much sense” is the typical astonishing cry that I read in the group. I totally understand how they […]
Are you going nuts in menopause? New research on the connection between your precious sleep and nuts.
As you grab those Easter eggs this weekend, or that block of chocolate at the supermarket, can you also wander around to the aisle which has nuts … especially if you aren’t sleeping during menopause? A handful a day – that’s all you need. But they must be raw or roasted, preferably as fresh as […]
“Learning how to sleep again has been the biggest change.” [Theresa, Australia]
I love it when women graciously share their menopause journey with you. It’s very inspiring to know that we all have control over the changes we can make to our health and our symptoms as we move through this life-stage. Here is Theresa’s story. “I’ve recently completed your 12 week program and looking forward to […]
“For the first time in 5 years I feel transformed!” [Kimberly, Brisbane]
“I love this photo because of how I felt on this day 10 days ago leaving Brisbane after the floods. I had been able to support my daughter during this stressful time in a calm and empowered way (post-menopausally much calmer than pre-menopausal!), and I was feeling beautiful and thankful to be showing her what […]
New Research: Can a plant-based diet with lower fat intake, reduce your hot flushes?
It’s taken a while for the research to be undertaken exploring the link between our nutrition in menopause and our hot flushes, or as they are better known in medical parlance, ‘vasomotor symptoms’. That’s why I love this new research, conducted as part of new women’s studies in America. The Women’s Study for the Alleviation […]
VIDEO: Does your herb garden contain the secret to reducing your menopause anxiety?
This evergreen bushy shrub which grows along the Mediterranean Sea, in sub-Himalayan areas and fortunately, in my herb garden, wasn’t mentioned by my Pharmacist when I enquired about menopause supplements for anxiety. I wish it had been. Because a few weeks later, the supplements that I did buy at the time, weren’t making any difference. […]
“I saw how my face had changed shape over the 3 months of being with you. I hadn’t noticed that until now.” [Nicola, UK]
“When I started your program it was not a diet for me, but a lifestyle change. I focused on feeling better by eating and sleeping better, rather than weight loss, and your programme gave me the strategy to do this. Then the energy came back so I could exercise more and now I feel a […]
