Managing your menopause journey: symptoms and solutions

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of mindfulness practices, relaxation techniques, and lifestyle modifications in managing menopausal symptoms and their underlying physiology. We conducted a comprehensive literature review of studies that demonstrate the impact of mindfulness, relaxation, and lifestyle changes on menopausal symptoms, as well as those that shed light on the physiological mechanisms behind these symptoms. We could assume that mindfulness practices, relaxation techniques, and lifestyle changes could be valuable tools for managing menopausal symptoms like stress reduction, relaxation, and hormone balance. Nevertheless, there is a need for more studies to prove their effectiveness among different population groups and account for individual variability in treatment. Some of the recommendations include putting these innovative strategies into practice and creating education and support networks for women in menopause.
