This is the time around and after the end of your periods. Strictly speaking the menopause is after the last menstrual period. This is usually around the age of 51.

This is due to hormone changes resulting in a dramatic reduction of oestrogen....

I always preach this to retreat pilgrims and I remind coaching clients- beginnings are always slower than middles and most certainly than ends. Beginnings can be dangerous, feel crafty, shift under your feet.

Resignation and resentment are moods that point us toward giving up, blaming, slumped shoulders and limited options.

We all seem to measure how well we're doing when embarking upon a healthy eating and exercise regime by how much weight we've lost. Most of us will weigh ourselves everyday just to see how we're doing. If the scales say we've lost weight we're on top of the world but if we haven't or even put some on we're in a bad mood for the rest of the day and may even think it's....

Around two-thirds of the human body is made up of water and although we can live for weeks without food we can only survive a few days without water. Our body’s water supply is essential for regulating our internal organs and is involved in nearly every bodily process including digestion, absorption, circulation, breathing and excreting waste material out of the body. Water is....
