Dearest, aka Alice Stamm, Power Surge founder, discusses the importance of online support and mentoring for women in their transitional years.

If anyone tells you menopause isn't a challenging time of life, or you should be able to get through it easily -- don't believe them! There are a host of issues from the physical, emotional, spiritual - the daily discomfort we can't always account for, nor can we always find remedies for. There's the acceptance of all these changes, creating a new mind-set, reinventing ourselves, a great deal of learning and practice on how to relax and get through what oftentimes seems like a war zone than a natural part of a woman's evolution.

Some of the simplest remedies can be tremendously effective -- long walks, quiet times to regroup emotionally, yoga, exercise, 15 minutes with a wonderfully relaxing herbal tea, self-hypnosis, learning to pamper ourselves.

An open dialogue about treating menopause symptoms --from hot flashes, anxiety and depression to mood swings, insomnia, sexuality. Trying to cope with the rest of our lives and get through menopause at the same time. Thursday, August 14th, 9 PM (ET)inPower Surge Live!
