Most of his works include his own characters\, mainly the Clentipede. In different real life scenarios\, or interacting with real life objects and buildings that are consistently in his life. He is often inspired by the world around him\, and how he can elevate it to match his daydreams.

SUMMARY:Menopause & Midlife Health: A Whole Body Approach to Feeling Like Yourself Again
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a FREE wellness lecture with Dr Gene Clerkin!\nMenopause is often talked about as a simple aging issue\, but for many women\, the experience goes far beyond that. \nHot flashes\, brain fog\, weight gain\, sleep disruption\, mood changes… these symptoms can feel frustrating\, confusing\, and at times overwhelming. And while traditional medicine approaches may focus on antidepressants or managing hormones alone\, they often overlook the bigger picture of what’s happening in the body. \nIn this talk\, Dr. Gene Clerkin of Monadnock Natural Health will share a different perspective\, one rooted in over 30 years of working with women navigating these changes. \nRather than focusing on menopause as something to “fix\,” Dr. Gene will explore how stress\, digestion\, inflammation\, and overall body function all play a huge role in how these symptoms show up and how your body moves through this transition. \nYou’ll learn:\n• Why menopause symptoms are often about more than just aging\n• How stress and the nervous system impact hot flashes\, sleep\, and mood\n• The role digestion and detoxification play in hormone balance\n• Simple\, practical ways to support your body naturally \nThis is not about quick fixes or one-size-fits-all solutions. It’s about understanding your unique body and system\, supporting it\, and creating the conditions where it can function at its best. Because when your body is supported\, this transition can become not something to fear\, but an opportunity to feel better than you have in years! \nRSVP here!
