Get into your groove


Whether its dancing, yoga, swimming, jogging, or walking, getting into something physical every day will help you keep your body in good shape. Not only does exercise relieve you of everyday stresses or help you shed pounds, it also helps minimize menopausal mood swings and hot flushes.

Experts recommend that you exercise at least 30 minutes every day.


If you are not a very active person, taking the time every day to do brisk walking will do. How long should your daily exercise routine be? Experts recommend that you exercise at least 30 minutes every day. If you feel that your schedule cannot accommodate a 30-minute exercise routine, then try breaking that up into two 15-minute or three 10-minute segments throughout the day. You can even incorporate physical activities into your daily routine.

Get sufficient amount of rest


Menopausal women tend to experience more sleeping problems than those who are not in this physical phase. The best way to overcome sleeping problems is to avoid engaging in activities that would most likely keep you from getting enough sleep or that would cause you to sleep poorly. For one, make it a point to avoid drinking coffee during the evening. Also, avoid smoking and eating a hearty dinner. It is also best that you avoid working right before your bedtime as brain-stimulating activities will not help you to fall asleep.

To get a good night’s rest, drink something soothing and warm before you go to bed—chamomile tea or warm milk.

Scientists have found that one of the best ways to combat frequent mood swings is by increasing intake of Omega-3.
