Academy of AgingAstrology and Midlife Transitions: Guidance for MenopauseWhen I was in my 40s, I went through some pretty significant upheavals that coincided with perimenopause. Then in my 50s, there was another kind of growth spurt as I started to be able to tap in to my menopausal wisdom. Now, more than a decade in, I’ve had yet another upgrade.
So it was interesting to learn that these three intense midlife transitions coincide with three significant astrological events: the Uranus opposition (around age 42), Chiron return (around age 51) and second Saturn return (around age 59).
Astrology can offer preparation and guidance as a person mo...2022-05-1549 min
Academy of AgingLighten Up at Midlife: Say "Yes" to ImprovIn the past year, I've read several books about aging and menopause that stress the importance of healing laughter. So when I learned about Emily Harris, founder of Spirited Fun Improv, a safe and lively class where women in their prime stay curious, build friendships, and lighten up, I knew I needed to know more. You cannot make a mistake in her class, says Emily, an award-winning improviser, storyteller, and arts educator based in the Pittsburgh, PA, area. "Everything the participants say or do is absolutely right," she says. "When was the last time that happened? No scripts. Nothing...2022-05-0734 min
Academy of AgingWhen Menopause Meets ADHDI wanted to chat with ADHD coach Erik "Doc" Anderson (who himself is an ADHDer) after I learned that many of the symptoms of perimenopause/menopause – such as depression, anxiety, brain fog, forgetfulness, memory struggles, and other cognitive issues – mimic adult ADHD.
It's estimated that 85% of adults with ADHD are undiagnosed. For women, that figure may be even higher because ADHD in girls and women often presents differently and is missed. The life changes and hormonal changes ushered in by perimenopause may bring to the forefront ADHD traits that previously had been manageable.
Erik says that a...2022-03-1245 min
Academy of AgingMenopause: My Husband's ViewRecent surveys have shown that many partners often feel rejected, frustrated, and bewildered by what is happening to their significant other as they progress through perimenopause. I wondered if my husband felt the same 25 years ago – a time when my menopause transition included mood swings, anxiety, angry outbursts, and depression.
We’ve known one another for nearly 40 years and are no strangers to deep conversations. I asked him about it on a recent long drive. It was interesting for me to hear his perspective. And so, in an effort to raise awareness among other partners, we bring you...2022-02-1325 min
Academy of AgingTrauma, menopause, and a mind-body tool that may helpResearch confirms that having trauma in your background can magnify menopausal symptoms.
Why? Because many women who had trauma during their childhood – not just physical trauma, but emotional as well – never got treated, "so they're walking around with about a thousand pounds of emotional garbage ... hurt, pain, anger, depression, anxiety," says renowned physician Pam Peeke, M.D. The unhealed wounds remain, and their legacy often is an overactive nervous system, chronic anxiety, and depression, which can go into overdrive during the menopause transition.
There are all kinds of ways to address these symptoms, but the ones...2022-02-0929 min
Academy of AgingMenopause and the Power of BreathworkIncreasingly, neuroscience research has identified breathwork as a bona fide way to release stress and increase relaxation. The breath has a powerful effect on the state of our brains, our bodies, and our emotions.

She conducts breathwork workshops, virtual events, corporate events and private sessions for clients who wish to break free from anxiety, feel lighter, happier and gain more clarity in their life.
