The Shield, the Story and the Switch: Why Women with Autoimmune Disorders Hit a Wall in Perimenopause, and How to Rewrite the Signal
Wednesday, December 9 at 12pm EST
Same diagnosis, same labs, very different perimenopause. Dr. Shalane Carter explores why.
Two women, both 46, both with Hashimoto’s, same labs, same prescription. One moves through perimenopause tired but steady, and the other falls apart. Dr. Shalane Carter draws on research from the NIH, Mayo Clinic, UCLA, and Harvard to look at what may make the difference: how fluctuating hormones affect the immune system, how childhood adversity and chronic stress can show up in midlife, and Bruce Lipton’s ideas on how perception influences the body. You’ll leave with a clear framework and a live nervous-system practice you can use the same day.
Dr. Shalane Carter, DNM, is a Doctor of Natural Medicine and the founder of PRNA Wellness. She blends nervous system regulation, spinal energetics, quantum biology, and Eastern traditions, and created the Quantum 8 Method, the You Are the Medicine membership, and the Be The Frequency podcast.
- Why perimenopause may unmask or worsen autoimmune conditions
- How childhood adversity and chronic stress may connect to midlife inflammation, using research like the ACE study
- What cortisol resistance is and why inflammation can keep running after the original stress has passed
- A 3-minute “regulate, then rewrite” practice that builds safety in the nervous system before you introduce a new belief
Who it’s for: Women 40 and older living with an autoimmune condition who’ve been told it’s “just menopause” or “just your thyroid” and want to understand what’s happening in their bodies. Also natural health practitioners, health coaches, and Quantum University students and graduates who work with women in midlife.
