Hello wonderful listeners and thank you so much for joining me again on this midlife journey that is menopause.Today I am covering what can be a really sensitive symptom for some women -'Sex' or should I say ‘lack of it'If your sex life is slowing down due to menopause, you don't have to accept it as an inevitable part of getting older. Everyone deserves to have a satisfying sex life, if that is important to you.Let's help find your mojo!For many women loss of libido can be one of the more challenging and upsetting symptoms to cope with.Many women can often find it really difficult to broach the subject with their partner. It is so important to communicate due to the damage it could potentially cause in an otherwise wonderful relationship.It really isn't easy for any couple, but it's talking to your partner that will help them understand how it is for you and how you are feeling. It's talking openly that could ultimately help to reintroduce intimacy into your relationship and maybe more sex.So my lovely listeners you can message me on Instagram: Letlifebeyoga or email: annie@letlifebeyoga.com with any questions or concerns and for now…Grab your cuppa sit back and enjoy!

Podcast Season 2, Episode: 6‘There Is A Fountain Of Youth…Drink It‘Hello and welcome lovey listeners to my Menopause journey and the true joys of what can come with age.Today's episode is about ways of not being defeated by age and saying goodbye to comparisons. We have a lot going on in our midlife and menopause can be a challenging time, you may even feel misunderstood or unheard. I truly believe that it can also be some of the best years of your life. “Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter.” - Mark TwainI so agree, it is important to really love yourself with all of your imperfections as that is actually ‘Your Perfect.'I love what Sophia Loren said “There is a fountain of youth: it is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the lives of people you love. When you learn to tap this source, you will truly have defeated age.” You can message me on Instagram: Letlifebeyoga or email: annie@letlifebeyoga.com with any questions.Grab your cuppa sit back and enjoy!Most of all ‘Love yourself

Welcome back to my crazy journey through midlife, and congratulations to you for reaching this stage too.Well ladies, today I have decided to talk to you about mood swings…manly because I've had a week of them and it's not even one of the symptoms I usually suffer from. Mood swings are no laughing matter and for some, can lead to anxiety or depression. Serotonin in the body is our ‘Happy Hormone' and helps control our mood swings. There are definitely things we can do to help release this hormone into our brain and hopefully ease and raise our moods for the better, whilst also improving sleep.Listen and learn so much more!Grab your cuppa sit back and enjoy!Please contact me with any questions: Instagram Letlifebeyoga or email: annie@letlifebeyoga.comClass details: www.letlifebeyoga.comYou can also follow Mary on Instagram:Londonsewingshop
