You Can Choose Faith Over Fear During Menopause and Come Back Strong

Every one of us can choose to follow faith or fear, especially during menopause.

We can fear the worst, thinking we will never be the same or get well, or we can have faith that every day, we are being healed, restored, and will come back stronger than ever.

We can have faith that we’re not growing older; we’re growing more youthful, better, wiser, calmer, leaner, and stronger.

Have hope. You will get through this thing called menopause. BHRT and other natural solutions can help. When a hot flash hits, you can pause, pray, and take a breath until it passes.

Some symptoms will require hard work, a positive attitude, and patience. It may feel dark where you are, but light and joy will come again.

Part of faith comes with a decision. You decide today to be strong and believe your condition won’t beat you. You decide to look at alternative solutions. You find joy right where you are and trust that happiness will follow.

Choosing faith can have a positive impact on your mental health during menopause. Many faiths encourage practices like meditation, prayer, or mindfulness, which can effectively manage stress and improve mental clarity.

You don’t have to be a victim of your circumstances. Two men grow up with abusive fathers. One continues the legacy of anger, jealousy, insecurity, and bullying. One breaks the pattern, focuses on love, always wears a smile, and is confident and trusting. Same history, same experience, same circumstance, different outcome. And different impact on the world. The difference is how these two men chose to live their lives and who they chose to become.

The same can happen to us. Two women. Both are thrust into menopause. One leans in, gains weight, and becomes more withdrawn, melancholy, and defeated. The other woman does everything she can to heal, live her passion, find her purpose, and lead a life of love, laughter, and freedom. Same experience, same circumstance, different outcome. And different impact on the world.
