This three hour workshop focuses on alleviating the common menopause related symptoms of anger & irritability using yoga postures, breathwork, meditation, and relaxation techniques.
Menopause is a natural transition that every woman will move through. As we move towards menopause our hormone levels start to fluctuate. These changing levels in hormones affect every cell in the body including the brain, and can lead to excess heat in our body, manifesting as sudden changes in mood, irritability and "menorage."
These changes we face can cause fear and uncertainty as we wonder what is happening to us, We will work to find acceptance, soothe this fear, tension and stress, and calm the nervous system. You are not alone in this, we will explore techniques and options to alleviate these symptoms and minimize the fluctuations, and find equilibrium and calm.
You will be held in a women's circle with a caring community of women who are all moving through this rite of passage as well, enabling you to share your experiences and challenges with those who can relate.
We will also discuss the many tools and modalities now available, both allopathic and holistic, to help us navigate these sometimes turbulent waters and look at some of the leading practitioners in this field. Tea and nibbles will be provided.
