I am in my early stages of perimenopause, and I am hoping to discover more natural/holistic treatment options and motivation to work out/exercise more. My why, I am unsure. There are days I have major brain fog and am unable to think clearly, and my mind remains blank for hours or days. I have compiled books on menopause to navigate me through this next life chapter as a woman coming into her “M-Power” (Menopause Power).
