Menopause Yoga Workshops

I

Many women experience fluctuations of hormone levels as early as late 30’s - early 40’s.

The changes in oestrogen, progesterone and testosterone levels affect every cell in the body.

There are 3 stages of menopause

​

1. Peri menopause

2. Menopause

3. Post menopause

​

I aim to bring awareness to the symptoms that menopause can bring and offer yoga as a way to support the symptoms women can experience.

The average age is 51 years However peri menopause can last for 6 to 10 years.

Symptoms can continue into the post menopausal stage with some women still experiencing symptoms in their 60’s.

 

Many people are aware of hot flushes being a classic symptom of menopause.

However there are many other symptoms which women don’t necessarily associate with menopause.

Headaches, migraines,

Joint pain,

Mood change, drier skin & hair, anxiety, 

Many of these symptoms are over looked & self caress neglected until stronger more commonly known symptoms occur.

​

post menopause.Offering information to support women’s midlife hormonal health in a holistic way.

 

Exploring practical ways to manage the transition into your second spring with yoga, breath work and meditation practices.

Adapting the poses to keep bodies safe and strong.
