Perimenopause: Is Your Body Trying to Tell You Something? | Katie Brindle

About this episode

Brain fog, night sweats, weight gain, exhaustion or fluctuating hormones? What if your perimenopause symptoms are your body's way of telling you it's time to slow down and listen? In this episode of Own Your Health, Katie Brindle looks at perimenopause through the lens of Traditional Chinese Medicine, telling you why this stage of life is about more than just hormonal changes. According to Chinese medicine, the kidneys are considered the body's energy battery, playing a central role in ageing, vitality and the menopause transition. But with the demands of modern life, constant stress and too little rest, could your body's battery be running on empty? Perimenopause doesn't have to be something you simply push through. Sometimes, the best thing you can do is stop, listen to your body and give yourself the care you've been putting off. Subscribe to Own Your Health with Katie Brindle for more conversations about Traditional Chinese Medicine, natural wellbeing, healthy ageing and simple daily rituals.
