Advancements in Women’s Health-La Jolla, CA
By Carrie Sheridan for Talk Women's & Children's Health
I recently attended the 2010 Advancements in Women’s Health over 40 in La Jolla. This was a conference focused on an array of topics ranging from GYN Cancer Care to Menopause. As I have attended these types events over the years, I have always taken away something to share with our clients to keep current on Women’s Health. This most recent conference was no different except that I found myself thinking more about how the information gathered could enhance my own health within the many topics covered. Once over 40, I think many women start to feel the inevitable passage of time. What we once used to shake off with a good night’s sleep suddenly takes a bit longer to recover from. At the same time we may begin to find a new freedom in becoming more aware of our bodies vulnerability and the importance to take action in our own health. In the last year, I have been fortunate to focus some effort on keeping my own health on track and in doing so hope that I am able to set a better example for my family and others around me in that regard. With our busy schedules, it is not always easy to do but the investment in doing so will certainly pay off if we make time for this an important part of our lives. Take care and be well!
