How does Ayurveda view the perimenopausal transition? 

And what are some of the tools and strategies that might be helpful to incorporate in this time to both reduce and prevent the common symptoms that show up in this time?

According to today's guest, Ayurvedic Health Counselor Kristen Timchak, the perimenopausal transition is often characterized by qualities of Vata dosha.

Irregular cycles, drying skin, tissue fragility, brain fog, anxiety, mood swings, are all potentially signs of Vata imbalance.

In this conversation, we explore a variety of approaches to tend our bodies and minds in this time from the Ayurvedic lens.
