RESOURCES FOR EPISODE

Your Spark Action Steps This Week

1️⃣ Track your headaches for 5 days. Write down the time, food, stress, and environment.

2️⃣ Hydrate like it’s your job. Aim for 8–10 glasses daily, adding electrolytes if needed.

3️⃣ Add one magnesium-rich food—spinach, almonds, or dark chocolate.

4️⃣ Try the peppermint compress. Combine two drops of peppermint oil with a damp cool cloth; apply to temples for 10 minutes.

5️⃣ Do one minute of 4-2-4 breathing when tension starts creeping up your neck.

These small habits build awareness and balance—your two best allies in menopause.
