We will unite together in a women's circle to have a chat about the menopause over a cuppa and do some yoga together!
For centuries women have been gathering in circles around the new moon to speak without being judged, to listen with open hearts, to laugh and cry, and to form friendships and be a part of a supportive community.
The menopause can feel isolating and scary for many women. Great changes occur during this transitional period of our lives and this Menopausing Moon Club is one way of meeting others going through similar experiences, sharing, empowering and uniting in a relaxed, compassionate environment. Please note; there is no pressure to speak if you wish not to.
Following the women's circle, we will move into a Menopause Yoga class. This type of yoga combines knowledge from both eastern and western traditions, medical science and complementary therapies and specially adapts yoga poses, breathing techniques and meditation to help women manage their menopause symptoms. The yoga will be uplifting but also relaxing and suitable for all abilities, even absolute beginners.
All women who are on their menopause journey, whether they are post-menopause, in the middle of it, or early perimenopause (even if you're not sure - you just suspect you may be!) are very welcome.
Each new moon we will cover a different aspect of the menopause
