Hola, Miyara tribe!

OCTOBER IS MENOPAUSE AWARENESS MONTH!

“So many women I’ve talked to see menopause as an ending. But I’ve discovered this is your moment to reinvent yourself after years of focusing on the needs of everyone else. It’s your opportunity to get clear about what matters to you and then to pursue that with all of your energy, time and talent.”

— Oprah Winfrey.

We, at Miyara, resonate with Oprah’s outlook on menopause. It is not something to be scared of if we prepare ourselves mentally, physically, and most importantly, with sufficient credible information. With knowledge comes the clarity to express yourself to carers and the motivation to proactively seek help or take actions necessary to tackle symptoms.

Here are some highlights from this month 

Our conversation with her covered an array of interesting topics ranging from menopause symptoms to medications, sexual health during and after menopause, and how to talk about menopause with men and with the rest of your family. She also highlighted how being physically active is important to women in midlife and beyond.

You can watch her interview here

In an effort to break the communication barrier around women’s health issues, Miyara is excited about launching a safe place for menopause conversations for all of you later this month.

It will be a series of sessions held periodically where women can share their health experiences during the menopausal transition and beyond. We hope that this grows into a peer knowledge-sharing group and there will be useful takeaways for all women in different phases of aging.

As always, we look forward to your continued support as we build Miyara with you and for you. You are welcome to join our activities, weekly challenges and be part of our community on WhatsApp as well.

Till next time, 

Take care and best wishes,

The Miyara Team
