Mindfulness for PMDD with Diane
Have you been wondering how you can find more peace in your life with PMDD or PME? I’m Diane and I’m a dietitian, lactation consultant, mindfulness teacher and mom, living with Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder and helping other PMDD Warriors find management and acceptance of PMDD through mindfulness.
Twice a month, I’ll discuss how mindfulness and meditation can help with the debilitating symptoms of PMDD and PME (premenstrual exacerbation of an existing condition). I’ll also explore parenting, career, nutrition, starting a business–and more–through the lens of Mindfulness for PMDD, so we can find a sustainable way to live a better life with this chronic condition.
