Menopause, Mood & Managing Seasonal Affective Disorder

Hot flashes? Check.
Mood swings? Also check.
Brain fog so strong I forget why I walked into a room? Absolutely.

I often look for educational menopause resources, and Canadian Menopause Society has helpful info.

And because I live in Canada — land of the long winter — I also manage Seasonal Affective Disorder.
Which means sunshine isn’t just something I love…
it’s something I need to feel like myself.

This part of Ignite Lifestyle is where I share:

  • what’s helping me feel like me again
  • the supplements, routines, and habits that support my mood
  • how I plan travel around my mental health
  • light therapy tools that help during winter
  • honest experiences with energy, sleep, and motivation

If you’re also trying to stay positive when your hormones aren’t cooperating…
pull up a chair. You are definitely not alone here.

No shame.
No “just tough it out.”
Just real women figuring it out together.
