Oh yes, I used to gazelle around the Unesco Geopark of Mullerthal (ie my backyard). I still roam, I walk, I stumble, I sit, I hug trees, I lift branches. But gazelle no more. I need to find another animal that fits.
I have changed my diet and supplements, I am doing strength training, I am somatic shaking, I am resting so so much.
I am currently listening to Next Level on Audible, following a recent recommendation, with the aim of transitioning off hormone replacement therapy within the next six months to a year. Because of an endometrial ablation, I entered early menopause at the age of 44. However, I have been lifting heavy weights since my late 30s, which has helped alleviate some of the symptoms of menopause. However, I opted for HRT because I was struggling with anxiety and palpitations. I plan to do more research on the adaptogens as I transition. I also agree on the slowing down, and less is more for my training now and more is essential food and calorie wise to sustain it.
Lifting and protein intake has been a gamer changer for me in life and running at age 58.
Good stuff here!
Great to hear. I def need to do more. I know what I need to do, don’t always do it :-)
Me too!

Hope you find a way forward Pauline. Sounds like you are gathering up as much information as possible, learning is key huh. :-)
