Yoga for Menopause

Menopause is when a woman’s menstrual period permanently stops. This is usually associated with hormonal, physical and psychological changes. These changes can occur gradually or abruptly. Symptoms include irregular menstruation, changes in sexual desire, hot flashes, vaginal dryness and urinary problems, changes in appearance, mood changes, sleep disturbances, palpitations and backaches.

Some basic yoga practices can help one go through these symptoms easily and comfortably. These practices elevate your mood, fill you with positive high prana, and make the body strong enough to bear with the changes it's going through.
