140 How to Deal with Depression During Menopause

Our risk of mental health issues increases during menopause, but HRT and anti depressants are only one way of dealing with the black dog.   As a hypnotherapist, I'm particularly interested in how our biases affects what we perceive and how our ability to become more psychologically flexible can prize us out of that 'absolute thinking' which is so crippling during depression eg:  'my life will never get better and nothing will work'.   But this episode is not just about individual solutions, this episode touches on the profound and deeply wounding systemic issues that abound keeping the majority of people stuck in their poor mental health.  In this episode we touch on: Why depression arises during menopause and midlife.What causes depression.What makes depression worse.How to minimise the risk of depression.So if you're ready to lift the lid on depression, give this episode a try. Links:Kate Raworth's TED Talk:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rhcrbcg8HBwLink to my products page: www.sallygarozzo.com/products Link to my RTT page:  https://www.sallygarozzo.com/rapid-transformational-therapistDirect link to send me a WhatsApp: https://wa.me/message/FTARBMO7CRLEL1 Support the show
