The Pause

The Liminal Space of Menopause

The Void, The Pause and the Power of In-Between

Menopause is not only a transition; it is also a threshold, a space between what has been and what is yet to be. In this workshop we will explore the liminal space of menopause: the mysterious, often disorienting “pause” where old identities dissolve, roles shift and the next version of ourselves has not yet formed.

This is the phase where many women say, “I don’t know who I am anymore,” and yet underneath that confusion lies deep potential. The liminal space is where wisdom ripens. It is the cocoon, the cauldron, the stillness before emergence.

Together we will explore:

• What the “void” actually is and why it shows up so powerfully at midlife
• How hormonal shifts (especially fluctuating estrogen and declining progesterone) can create emotional and spiritual suspension
• Why this in-between space is essential for transformation
• How to navigate the uncertainty with compassion, trust and curiosity
• The archetypal meaning of The Pause, the moment before becoming

The evening will include gentle teaching, sharing circle, guided visualisation and a creative ritual activity aligned with the theme of resting in the unknown and trusting the emergence of what’s next.

This workshop offers a warm, grounded space for women to explore what it means to stand at the edge of one chapter and sense the stirring of another, even if it is not yet clear what is coming next.Come with your questions, your confusion, your curiosity and your quiet hopes. This is where new stories begin.
