Why Natural Remedies For Hot Flashes Are SO Important
I vividly remember a client who came to see me about 10 years ago.
She wanted to deal with her hot flashes naturally, but she almost had an anxiety attack in my office just talking about them because...
But her hot flashes were so severe that she almost had an anxiety attack just talking about them.
You see... Every time she had a hot flash it came with so much anxiety, panic, and such a feeling of not being able to think or function... She was afraid to turn on the stove or drive, and she didn't feel safe taking care of her kids.
And she was having at least 10 hot flashes a day.
"I made my 14-year-old son cry." "I can't sleep for more than an hour at a time." "I drove my car through the garage door. " These are things I hear from my menopausal clients - this is what menopause can feel like - and this is what my client was feeling.

Traditionally, Asian cultures seem to have an inherent understanding that food and herbs can be added to the daily diet to help manage these changes when they first appear. They don't look to artificial hormone remedies known as HRT (hormone replacement therapy) as American women do. They nourish their bodies with natural plant-based foods, including herbs, just as their culture has done for thousands of years. Asian women use this approach thoughtfully and purposefully because they understand that the principals of nourishment work effectively and are all that is needed"
