Managing Hot Flushes and Night Sweats: A Cognitive Behavioural Self-help Guide to the Menopause

Autor Myra Hunter, Melanie Smith
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 iul 2020
This revised edition of Managing Hot Flushes and Night Sweats offers up-to-date and evidence-based information about the menopause and about hot flushes and night sweats, which are the main reason that women seek medical help.
The four-week self-help guide uses cognitive behavioral therapy, providing information and strategies for managing hot flushes and night sweats, as well as stress and sleep. The guide is interactive with exercises and homework tailored to women’s individual circumstances and lifestyles. It challenges myths about menopause and aging and provides better understanding of flushes which in turn reduces stress and improves post-menopausal well-being. The various chapters discuss processes of identification and modification of triggers of hot flushes and offers tips to women on dealing with hot flushes in social and work situations.
The guide can be as effective as eight hours of group CBT and will help women who want to try a non-medical treatment that is brief and effective without side effects, or just want to be better informed.

Recenzii

"CBT helped me a lot. I was able to focus more on the areas I was struggling with. The breathing techniques helped me to manage my anxiety levels when they came on. I made more time for myself and changed my diet. By doing this I was able to stop the triggers for symptoms of menopause - I feel in control again" Nicolina Reynolds
"The CBT process was a turning point in managing my menopause experience. Not only did it help me to manage my symptoms and get them into perspective, it accelerated the psychological acceptance of menopause. I went from feeling old and miserable to feeling better about myself than I have in years. It feels really good to finally be happy in my own skin." Rebecca Berry
