This is my framework to help you live a better perimenopause transition and to use this stage in your life to your advantage. Again, it's not all about symptoms; it's about deciding what you want the second half of your life to look like. So, perimenopause blueprint. It is your perimenopause blueprint. What yours looks like is completely different from mine, and it'll be completely different from the next woman's. So again, it is yours. But that said, I do think it's based on these 4 pillars. These are the 4 pillars that I came across. Now, if you've heard about the 4 pillars of perimenopause before, it probably is not these, okay? The 4 pillars originally, or the 4 pillars that tend to be used, are all biologically based. They're looking at your sleep, your stress, your nutrition, and your exercise. Those tend to be the 4 pillars that people talk about. These are my 4 pillars, or _your_4 pillars. So, you've got your biological pillar, which is the body stuff. You've got your social pillar, which is the people factor, the social connections. You've got the psychological, or the mind stuff. And you've got the spiritual, and I've put the "woo woo" stuff, but you'll see it's not actually— it can be if you want it to be, but it's not. It is just how I've put it on there. So those are the 4 pillars of your perimenopause blueprint. You'll also see at the bottom, you've got menstrual cycle awareness. Menstrual cycle awareness is the foundation that those 4 pillars work upon. Okay, and you'll see why that is in a bit.
