Menopause is not just hot flushes and your periods stopping. Symptoms can begin in peri-menopause when your oestrogen levels drop and you begin your transition to menopause. This may occur in your 40’s or earlier in some cases. The transition to post menopause can take many years and can affect women differently with a variety of symptoms. You may be feeling angry, irritable, experiencing brain fog, feeling anxious, palpitations, achy joints, difficulty sleeping, lack of confidence, a feeling of being overwhelmed the list goes on but you are not alone.

Menopause Yoga is here to help. This Menopause Yoga Workshop is suitable for women of all stages of menopause. For those who are curious and want to learn about that future stage in their lives and for women who are post menopausal and well into their Second Spring, these wise women we will undoubtedly learn from.

You will explore how to use yoga, breathing techniques and mindfulness meditation to help recognise and ease symptoms. At the end of your session I will guide you into deep relaxation allowing your mind and body to take a well earned pause.

We will come together in a Women’s Circle and discuss natural remedies, HRT, diet, lifestyle choices, stress and other triggers which may exacerbate symptoms.

This workshop will help to empower you on your menopause journey known traditionally in Eastern cultures and in Traditional Chinese Medicine as a positive transformation into your Second Spring.
