The Bromley Method

You know that thing where you're mid-sentence and suddenly... the word is just... gone?

Or you walk into a room and have absolutely no idea why you're there?

Or you're introducing two people and you completely blank on one of their names even though you've known them for years?

Let me tell you something important: You're not "losing it." You're not developing early dementia. Your brain is not broken.

Estrogen plays a crucial role in cognitive function - it affects memory, focus, and cognitive processing. When estrogen levels fluctuate during perimenopause, your brain function fluctuates too.

This is a real, measurable, biological change. It's not "just stress" (although stress definitely makes it worse). It's not because you're "getting older" (although yes, this happens as we age). It's because your brain is responding to changing hormone levels.

This isn't permanent cognitive decline. For most women, this improves once hormones stabilize or are replaced.

So the next time you forget what you were saying mid-sentence, take a breath and know that your brain is doing its best with fluctuating hormone levels.

I read a FASCINATING book recently that dives a whole look deeper into this written by Dr Lisa Mosconi. I’ll drop the link below.

Wherever and whatever you’re celebrating today, I hope you are settling in for some downtime, soaking up some beautiful moments, and I wish you the very happiest Holiday season this year.
