Anemia is something the woman in my family have struggled with for years. It seems it is something that gets worse with age and this week my mother is going for Iron injections to help boost her up a little. I too have suffered from “borderline Anemia” of the years too. I am not sure if these suggestions by Dr Axe work, but they are certainly worth a try. Treat Anemia at home.
Free Printable Downloads for Women 40+ Navigating the Hormonal Rollercoaster
Let’s be real—there are days when being a woman over 40 feels like riding a hormone-fueled tilt-a-whirl without the safety bar. Welcome to perimenopause, my friends. If you’ve ever found yourself sweating while standing in front of the fridge, crying over a puppy food commercial, or forgetting why you walked into a room (again), you’re in good company.
That’s exactly why I created these Perimenopause Calm Down Coloring Sheets—printable pages made especially for those “I swear if someone breathes near me I’m going to scream” moments.
What Are Calm Down Sheets?
These aren’t your typical mandala coloring pages. Nope. These were lovingly illustrated with women in perimenopause and menopause in mind—think messy buns, mood swings, and a whole lot of caffeine. Each sheet includes relatable cartoons, cheeky quotes, and stress-relieving doodles that are way more satisfying to color than pretending you’re fine.
They’re perfect for:
Rage coloring during a hot flash
Cooling down after snapping at your partner for chewing too loudly
Unwinding with a glass of wine and a pack of colored pencils
Quiet moments when your brain fog lifts just enough to enjoy something creative
Why Coloring Helps During Perimenopause
There’s science behind this, promise. Coloring helps lower cortisol levels, focus your mind, and gently ease anxious thoughts. It’s like a mindfulness practice, but one that doesn’t require Lycra or a meditation app subscription. And let’s be honest—when the world feels a bit much, giving a snarky mug or frazzled cartoon woman a splash of lavender and hot pink is downright cathartic.
Having read some of “Dr” Axe’s other recommendations, I advise any sensible person to shun him/her like the plague. If you suspect an iron/mineral deficiency or have been diagnosed with one, take your doctor’s advice, instead of obeying some stranger on the internet.
