Namita highlighted how dancing with a friend can be a great way to lift your mood and stay fit during perimenopause<\/a>. Exercise, in general, is a great way to alleviate symptoms like mood swings, hot flashes and joint pain. But Namita shared that she often switches up her regular gym workouts or yoga and Pilates<\/a> with a dance session.<\/p>\n How Namita is ‘never bored and always motivated’<\/p>\n Namita wrote in her caption, \u201cPerimenopause is full of mood swings, and what can be better to lift your mood and fitness than dancing with a dear friend?! My kids are named Vir and Jay after Sholay (A Bollywood classic that released in 1975) \u2013 so you can only imagine my love for Bollywood. So, I mix in Bollywood dance with my gym, yoga and Pilates to ensure I\u2019m never bored and always motivated to move and keep that attitude of ‘I\u2019m 48, I\u2019m going to be selfish and take care of myself, to h*** with the world, you do you girl’. Mindset gift of perimenopause!!\u201d<\/p>\n Perimenopause-friendly habits<\/p>\n Dancing can be a fun and effective way to stay active <\/a>and manage perimenopause symptoms.
