    Will power is a lie!

    Hey, gorgeous! Welcome back to Menopause and Margaritas, the podcast where we talk about how to have optimal health and live your best life in Menopause – from Peri to Post. I’m Bek, your coach, and today we’re tackling a question we probably have been asking since the 90’s—why diets fail and what you should be doing instead. Because if you’ve ever counted calories, cut out all the fat, skipped the carbs, or done a juice cleanse, only to end up right back where you started—or worse—then this episode is for you. In today's episode we are going to cover: The mindset trap of the diet mentality Why Willpower isn’t the issue Why Simply Cutting Calories in Menopause Can Harm Your Metabolism & Cause Fat Loss Resistance What to Do Instead of Cutting Calories The Role of Metabolic Adaptation in Weight Loss Plateaus How to Shift from Diet Culture to Metabolic Health And the usual dose of humour…… Don’t forget to follow me on: Instagram Pinterest Facebook Book a discovery call here if you have more questions about any of my services Find out about my 12 weeks to WOW program here Find out more about Emotion Release Technique here Want to get strong and be confident to lift all of your own groceries click here Want to join weekly live Yoga class click here Downloadable Freebie “3 Easy changes you can make today to start your weight loss journey”  here Check out my website(s) bekdimauro.com and theposturequeen.com Disclaimer:  All of the information contained in this podcast is for information only and does not seek to diagnose or treat a medical condition.

    Pelvic floor and more with Kylie Rankin

    Hi and welcome everyone.    Today we are talking about all things poos, wees, pelvic floor and pelvic pain.  Today we are joined by the wonderful Kylie Rankin, Women’s Health Physiotherapist to talk about all things “the nether regions”.   Do the young people say nether regions?  Probably not. Anywho-I love this episode because we cover off on topics that women in our age group probably don’t chat about with their friends and may not know they can actually get help for. Because we both love this topic, we barely scratch the surface and will need to catch up again to cover the rest of the questions. In today's session we cover: How common are pelvic health issues among women in perimenopause and menopause? What are some of the most prevalent pelvic health issues that women in peri/meno experience? How do hormonal changes during this stage of life impact pelvic health? What specific challenges do women over 40 face regarding urinary incontinence and how do we address these issues using physiotherapy? Kylie explains the role of the pelvic floor muscles and their significance in women's health during perimenopause and menopause. (Is there a difference between those two stages?  Peri vs meno?) What are some common symptoms that women might be brushing aside that would indicate they may need pelvic health physiotherapy? What are the common fears and misconceptions that some women might have about seeking help? What lifestyle changes does a pelvic health physio recommend for women over 40, to promote better pelvic health?   Myth busting pelvic floor exercises:  the what, where, when and how according to Kylie How can pelvic physiotherapy help?
