Launching today, we have two weeks of amazing #midlifemakeover giveaways. “New Year, New You” may be a cliche, but there’s definitely something invigorating about going into a new year with a few small changes and adjustments to our usual routines. So we’ve put together treats from some of our favourite beauty & wellbeing brands to inspire you. Kicking off our #midlifemakeover fortnight is eyebrow queen @shavatasingh. Never underestimate the importance of brows when it comes to ageing well. “They should silently complement your face,” says Shavata, who has over 30 years of eyebrow expertise and fans including Adele, Victoria Beckham and Kate Hudson. Join us at 6pm tonight for an IG Live with Shavata, to hear more about how to care for midlife eyebrows and what to do when they’re starting to thin - a common issue for many of us. Shavata is offering one winner an eyebrow shape and tint treatment - done by Shavata herself in one of her London salons - plus two products from her @shavata_brows range. Want a #midlifemakeover for your eyebrows? We’ve got one London salon treatment and set of products to give away, worth £200.

Karen Arthur is an inspiring campaigner and advocate for menopausal women. For her, raising awareness of the menopause and mental health links is an important conversations to be having. “I talk openly and honestly about my own struggles with mental health,” says Karen.

We’ve been focusing on menopause anxiety this week and @lisa_snowdon is a powerful voice in the conversation. Her honesty about her own mental health struggles and lack of awareness about menopause and HRT is to be applauded. It’s something she spoke to our co-founder Saska about last year, for an article in @telegraph. “I spent thousands of pounds on HRT from a private doctor,” Lisa told Saska. “I wish I’d been more educated about the differences between bio identical HRT (unlicensed from some private clinics) and body identical HRT, which is licensed and just as good, from the NHS. I wish I’d done a bit more research.” It’s so powerful when women in the public eye, like Lisa and the brilliant @davinamccall speak out about their personal menopause struggles. You can read more from Lisa and others including @gabbylogan and @therealtrishagoddard, via the #linkinbio and our Stories. #HRT #menopause #perimenopause #midlife #midlifewomen #womenshealth #womenswellbeing #menopausesupport #menopausehealth #menopauseawareness #menopausesymptoms #menopauserelief #menopausefitness #menopausematters #womensupportingwomen #anxiety #anxietyrelief #anxietyattack #anxietyproblems #anxietyrecovery #anxietyawareness #mentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters

Menopause anxiety is the secret symptom, the one that many of us didn’t expect, and then find ourselves floored by. We’d all heard about hot flushes, but a loss of confidence and daily feelings of gloom and foreboding? Not so much. As our medical advisor @drstephaniegoodwin explains, many women are mistakenly given antidepressants by their GP. “If you think your anxiety is due to hormonal deficiencies, don’t settle for antidepressants,” says Dr Steph.
You’ll find lots of advice from Dr Steph on how to manage menopause anxiety via the #linkinbio and on our Stories. “Anxiety during perimenopause is a very common issue,” she explains. “During the perimenopause your levels of oestrogen and progesterone decline with each cycle as your body heads towards menopause. However this is not in a nice smooth transition and can occur in quite dramatic peaks and troughs. So it’s perhaps not surprising that fluctuations in hormone levels are going to cause fluctuations in you.” #WednesdayWisdom #HRT #menopause #perimenopause #midlife #midlifewomen #womenshealth #womenswellbeing #menopausesupport #menopausehealth #menopauseawareness #menopausesymptoms #menopauserelief #menopausefitness #menopausematters #womensupportingwomen #anxiety #anxietyrelief #anxietyattack #anxietyproblems #anxietyrecovery #anxietyawareness #mentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters

Brace yourselves, today is #BlueMonday, allegedly

Brace yourselves, today is #BlueMonday, allegedly the most depressing day of the year. Blame it on crumbling New Year’s resolutions, the weather and our bank accounts after Christmas. (Not to mention the shenanigans in British politics at the moment, which are enough to depress anyone. Don’t start us…) As many of us know in these menopause years, anxiety isn’t just for Blue Monday. It’s the secret menopause symptom, a creeping malaise that sneaks up on us and sets in. As psychotherapist Carmely Shealy says, it can make you feel like a failure for no longer being able to power on in the way you used to. Fear not, there is lots you can do to help yourself feel better, starting with tuning in to our IG Live tonight at 7.30pm with Carmel herself. She’ll be discussing why menopause causes anxiety and what you can do about it. Sounds like the perfect antidote to Blue Monday to us. See you at 7.30pm - and if you have any questions, do pop them in the chat below. You can also read more from Carmel via #linkinbio and our Stories. #HRT #menopause #perimenopause #midlife #midlifewomen #womenshealth #womenswellbeing #menopausesupport #menopausehealth #menopauseawareness #menopausesymptoms #menopauserelief #menopausefitness #menopausematters #womensupportingwomen #anxiety #anxietyrelief #anxietyattack #anxietyproblems #anxietyrecovery #anxietyawareness #mentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters

Itching or crawling sensations? Increased dryness

Itching or crawling sensations? Increased dryness and sensitivity? There are a whole host of menopause skin disorders that have the potential to crop up as your oestrogen starts to decline. To find out what can be done to help alleviate symptoms, from products to diet, we spoke to expert dermatologists.

What is a hot flush? We know a woman who knows. “It’s one of the cardinal signs of oestrogen deficiency,” says our medical advisor @drstephaniegoodwin. “You can get red in the face, red in the chest, get a feeling of anxiety.” A hot flush, whether during the day or at night, can be “very debilitating”, says Dr Steph. The good news, she tells us, is that hot flushes “respond brilliantly well to HRT”. Read more medical advice on hot flushes, along with the other common (and not so common) menopause symptoms, via the #linkinbio and our Stories. #wednesdaywisdom #HRT #menopause #perimenopause #midlife #midlifewomen #womenshealth #womenswellbeing #menopausesupport #menopausehealth #menopauseawareness #menopausesymptoms #menopauserelief #menopausefitness #menopausematters #womensupportingwomen

Having trouble sleeping? In our most recent Midlif

Having trouble sleeping? In our most recent Midlife Health & Menopause Clinic (now held as a monthly Facebook Live over in our private Facebook group, join via the #linkinbio), our medical advisor @drstephaniegoodwin shared a tip: When you wake up in the night, don’t look at the time. Sounds simple, but it works. If you don’t know what time it is, you’re less likely to stress about being awake at Stupid O’Clock. Judging by the comments in the Facebook group, our community of women agrees. “Knowing the time achieves nothing and just makes the mind whirl even more,” said one member, whilst another commented, “I tried it last night - best night’s sleep in a long long time.” Dr Steph’s next Facebook Live Clinic will be a menopause anxiety special on Tuesday Jan 18. To make sure you don’t miss it, come and join us in our Women With Ambition, Attitude & Brain Fog private group. You’ll find a supportive and welcoming bunch of women who understand exactly what you’re going through in these menopause years. #linkinbio and in our Stories. See you there. #HRT #menopause #perimenopause #midlife #midlifewomen #womenshealth #womenswellbeing #menopausesupport #menopausehealth #menopauseawareness #menopausesymptoms #menopauserelief #menopausefitness #menopausematters #womensupportingwomen #insomnia #insomniasucks #insomniaproblems #insomniac #insomniacs #sleep #brainfog
