Dr. Gala Embracing the Change – Menopause
Menopause has been pictured as one of the least exciting parts of women’s lives throughout the years. It has been known as something to dread, something to fear as if one woman’s life ends when this time comes.
Is that really the case, though?
Even though menopause is known to bring such unbearable symptoms, in reality, it is one of life’s MOST NATURAL events. We should embrace it. And no, it is not the end. When this time comes, it’s best to seek out help, and that’s what I do best – help my fellow women and spread awareness! With over 30 years of experience, I’ve dedicated my life to helping women thrive through menopause. And it’s not impossible!
I’m happy to witness my clients go through from feeling lost and helpless to an absolutely fabulous menopause transition!
It’s best to remind yourself that you only live one life and only have one body. Nurture it. Take care of it. Say to yourself, “I love being me. I appreciate myself and my abilities.” Treat yourself with compassion. Speak kindly to yourself. What helped me during those times was that I validated my emotions and advocated for my needs. I sought assistance from my Coach, Blue, who helped me every step of the way! That became my inspiration to start Dr. Gala Health Coaching, LLC. I focused on harmony and healing.
What if you have the opportunity to become someone who pursues challenges that help you learn and grow? Set goals that excite and inspire you? Devote your time and energy to meaningful activities? Protect your mental and physical wellbeing? Set reasonable boundaries and practice self-care?
I made those intentional choices too. My life now has purpose and direction. Now, it’s your choice – are you going to let yourself suffer or grab the opportunity in front of you and seek help?
Today, make yourself a priority.
Menopause occurs when you go through 12 months without having your monthly menstrual cycle. Prior to that you get irregular period, at time more bleeding.
There are hormonal changes in the body. Your sexual desire is reduced and you get hot splashes, sweats at night.
It is natural process and taking care of your health will help you keeping your emotions at bay and feeling of awkwardness in this situation in life. Realize that it happens to every human.
Keep a healthy life with healthy food and regular exercise as part of your daily routine.
Eat fruits, vegetable, foods containing omega-3-fatty acid like salmon, flax seeds.
Stay away from processed and refined foods.
I adjusted my life during and reading about menopause from high authority websites.
You can take professional coaching and advise if you think it is necessary. It is just one life. Live it well.
Thank you for your review, Anusuya. Indeed it is a difficult time in life.

Many ladies become depressed or anxious about life when there bodies are adjusting to menopuse. As a male, I can attest to this fact, as I have seen many successful women stumble through this stage of their life. They simply had great problems managing their emotions and feelings.
