🧘‍♀️ A new study showed yoga helped with:

✔️ psychological health

✔️ physical concerns

✔️ urogenital issues

This was a randomized controlled trial in women between the ages of 40 and 60. Compared to no intervention, practicing yoga significantly reduced self-reported concerns in all of those areas listed.

Because of declining hormones at menopause, exercise becomes more important than ever to support bone health, weight, mood, sleep, and more.

If you’re looking to freshen up your exercise routine, think about getting a mix of:

1️⃣ Strength training (free weights, weight machines, resistance bands, squats, push-ups, etc.)

2️⃣ High-intensity interval training (HIIT involves short bursts if intense exercise)

3️⃣ Aerobic exercise (walking, running, biking, etc.)

4️⃣ Balance & flexibility training (yoga, tai chi, pilates)

What’s your favorite way to move?
