95: How Ayurveda can support perimenopause with Marjorie Nass

My guest on today’s episode is Marjorie Nass, who for two decades has helped thousands of women successfully navigate perimenopause and menopause and to feel healthy, vibrant, and energized. In our conversation today you’ll discover: How Marjorie’s own physical and mental health issues in her mid-late 30s as a feverishly busy corporate executive led her to discover the power that yoga and breathwork could have in healing her body and mind The different branches of yoga often overlooked by Western practitioners that can have a profound impact on our health and well-being, particularly perimenopause symptoms Why perimenopause is a stage rather than an age and why listening to our bodies is so important before we start making changes A breath and body scan practice that you can do right along with us during the episode Why lack of sleep causes a ripple effect that can impact all of our lives and how and why we need to be kinder to ourselves as we age and our body transitions into a new stage The habits and non-negotiables that Marjorie has adopted in her routine to manage her own wellness - and not just what she does but how and when she does it which is really interesting. Now, while you're listening today, think about how you can take what you learn and put it into practice. Take action in any way that's meaningful for you.
