Menopause and over a year dealing with Long Covid has left me feeling very tired and unfit. I have decided to join a gym, however the whole experience of looking for gym has created anxiety and I realise I might have slight Gymphobia - the fear of joining a gym. Within the show I explore the topic of my gymbhobia and ways that I can overcome the fear.Support this show <a target="_blank" rel="payment" href="http://supporter.acast.com/black-menopause-and-beyond">http://supporter.acast.com/black-menopause-and-beyond</a>. <hr> Hosted on Acast.

Menopausal Loose Women, talking Menopause and Beyond

My name is Anita Powell. I'm a 50-year-old black female born in the UK I am suffering from the symptoms of perimenopause. A few years ago, I noticed that my body was responding different to how it used to be. Conversations with my peers and they too were noticing changes.&nbsp;I felt my overall health was&nbsp;deteriorating. As a 40 something year old woman I never really explored the topic of my health; I just lived it but not optimised on my health.&nbsp;After research I realised that I need to rethink my behaviour and take care of me.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Within the podcast I will be discussing&nbsp;the Menopause, Midlife, and Beyond, looking at life from my perceptive, a black female,&nbsp;exploring health and lives of women.&nbsp;Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/black-menopause-and-beyond.
