Secret No. 1. There is no negative attitude towards menopause in Japan
When our women hear the words “climax” or “menopause,” we involuntarily prepare for the worst. Of course, who would enjoy hot flashes, weight gain, dryness in the intimate area, mood swings, and many other symptoms of menopause? However, any negativity causes stress to our body, which worsens our emotional state and negatively affects our appearance.
Japanese at first be positive. In the culture of the Land of the Sun, "menopause" is not understood in the way we are used to. It is replaced by the concept of "Konenki", which means regeneration, renewal. This term is used to refer to women from 40 to 60 years old. Try to change your attitude towards menopause!
