Hypnotherapy For Brain Fog
from The Long Exhale - Hypnotherapy For Perimenopause · host Hypnostudio
For walking into rooms and forgetting why. For the word that won’t come. For reading the same paragraph three times. For the quiet, private worry that something is seriously wrong with your brain.Nothing is seriously wrong with your brain. Oestrogen is one of the most active modulators of brain function we have, and the brain is densely populated with oestrogen receptors — particularly in the hippocampus, which manages memory, and the prefrontal cortex, which manages attention and the function that lets you find the right word. For decades, your brain has been calibrated around a steady supply. As oestrogen begins to fluctuate through perimenopause, the brain responds to the noise. The fog is not damage. It is recalibration.
