And she recently appeared on my podcast!

​Dreena is one of my favorite vegan cookbook authors (over the past two decades) and now she is also teaching a fascia method called Fascia Flo.

Among the things we discussed were:

• How Dreena transitioned from cookbook author to Fascia FLO
• How overactivity impacts peri menopause
• How Fascia FLO nourishes the organs
• Why the source of your pain might surprise you
  How an office job affects the body
• Why fitness doesn’t have to be painful

Here is an excerpt:

"I feel like women are well more educated about hitting puberty and getting their period than this, time of life, the cessation of it. And you actually think that you're going crazy is what happens for most women or a lot of women, you think you're you're losing it. That's what I felt.

I thought I was having a nervous breakdown. My anxiety was just over the top. I was crashing, trying to keep it together for my family, my kids, all that kind of thing.

And really, it's partly some, you know, symptomatic of that time of life. And I feel like if women know that in their maybe early 40s, I think even late 30s, that they can start visiting a doctor, a naturopath or a good doctor that will help guide them because you can do your blood work and know when the hormones are shifting and guide you through with more grace than having to crash. So in terms of the Fascia FLO work, in Chinese medicine, the kidneys, they govern the reproductive system and the kidneys stored what's called this jing, this life essence..."

I hope you enjoy the episode!
