Menopause awareness month & heart health

Since 2009, October’s been designated as menopause awareness month by the International Menopause Society and World Health Organisation. Every 18th October as World Menopause Awareness Day. Their intention is to raise awareness of menopause and the support options available for improving health and wellbeing. Each campaign has a different theme and this year’s is cardiovascular health.
This year’s theme is cardiovascular health. Each year more women die from heart disease than cancer.
We think this, as well as being shocking, is something that is not shared widely enough or understood. This is one of many reasons why we founded Mentrix. Our mission is to spread awareness and educate people about menopause. To equip women with information and tools to enable them to take the right steps for them to feel better. We do the same for men and your work colleagues. We provide support to anyone affected to make positive changes to enable them to live and feel better through menopause.
There are several ways in which we can improve our heart and overall health, for example through lifestyle, sleep, stress management and nutrition. We’ll be discussing them in our special, one-off free webinar to mark Menopause Awareness Month so if you haven’t already registered do visit our Events page, register to join us and understand more and make a start.
If reading’s your thing then have a look at our range of ebooks designed to inform, empower and equip you to make a change to support yourself better and get started straight away.
Over recent years, the theme of menopause awareness month has ranged widely. These have included perimenopause, bone health, sexual wellbeing, premature ovarian insufficiency (POI, or when a woman experiences it under the age of 40), and testosterone.

If you want tailored support that focuses right onto the things that are bothering you most, Sarah and Karen are available for coaching appointments scheduled whenever suits you best.
Both of us have great credentials as coaches. Karen is a qualified executive coach; Sarah is a coach as well as an accredited therapist too. Each of us has gained a menopause coaching qualification, so we know our stuff. Whether you’re affected personally, in your relationship, or at work – getting some direct support could be the smart thing to do.
The best way to start is a free 30-minute discovery call where we can talk 1-1 about the support you seek. After that, coaching consultancy sessions are payable if we decide to work together.
