SOLO: Perimenopause! My fresh education

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2380118/fan_mail/new] Let’s talk Perimenopause!  Men, this will be helpful for you to understand too.  I’ve heard friends who are older than me talk about their symptoms and discuss HRT types with each other, but I didn’t pay much attention since it didn’t apply to me.  Well, now I’m educating myself!  and I’m here to turn around and share what I’ve learned so far.  I'm not a nutritionist or doctor or any expert on this, so go talk to your doctor about any of the things I mention before trying them yourself, but I am a Biohacker Mom who has been practicing herbalism and naturopathic healing methods for over 10 years now, and I am a curious person who also loves to connect with and share with others everything I learn!  so here’s what I’ve learned so far from many books and a whole lot of podcasts on the topic, and also trying things for myself.  Make sure to Subscribe, Rate/Review, Share the podcast so it can help all your friends too!  and thanks to everyone whose been listening and downloading already! The show stats are really picking up thanks to you all! Much gratitude!  Hope you enjoy, and go Tenfold Your Life!  Cheers,  Brenda

SOLO: Ever Tried Phone Fasting?

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2380118/fan_mail/new] I’ve heard this term a couple times recently and was inspired to try it.  It really is so freeing and takes me back to the 1980s when you could “take your phone off the hook” when you wanted to be present with family or wanted to rest.  We didn’t used to be so available and reachable and reactive all the time.  Delaying the time you pick up your phone until after outdoor and morning routine time can reset your whole day for a more Proactive and Self Directed schedule instead of starting the day in Reactive mode.  Not taking your phone off the charger for a whole weekend day creates a whole ‘nother level of mindfulness on just how often you feel compelled to pick it up and handle admin and work tasks instead of truly having a DAY OF REST and introspection.  I challenge you to do a Phone Fast!  How long will you try?  And how often?  How frequently do you want to implement it?  I’m thinking I’d like to do at least 1 Sunday a month then probably just do every Sunday.  That feels so expansive for me!  What about you guys?
