This workshop aims to help women to think in a more empowered and healthy way about 'the change' and what it means for our lives. To move from ‘surviving’ the menopause to ‘thriving’ through the change!

It's for any woman who is approaching, going through, or has already passed menopause, who wants support to: better understand and navigate this phase of life in a healthy and empowered way; ‘re-imagine’ the next phase of her life and reach her potential.

Using a mixture of information sharing and partner and group work (with some fun exercises thrown in for good measure!), the day will aim to cover the following;

  • The little known and empowering theory about why menopause occurs at all (not just how it occurs).
  • The vital role of older women in human history and what myths and stories can teach us about this.
  • How we got to a place where the value and potential of older women in society is undermined.
  • Understanding your own brain and how it changes at the change.
  • How our experience of the menopause is influenced by our beliefs, our lifestyle, and the culture in which we live and how an awareness of these influences gives us more choices.
  • How to navigate the emotional challenges of the menopause in a healthy way, including some techniques to use to reduce anxiety and increase clarity of thought.
  • Understanding ageing in a healthier and more helpful way.
  • Honouring our lives to this point; an appreciative enquiry into the learning, experiences and skills that we have gathered.
  • Using the change to re-connect with what really matters to us.
  • Re-imagining our future selves beyond the change; embracing and exploring the possibilities for the next chapters of our lives.
  • The eternal value of women coming together in friendship and mutual support.

You will leave the day with a totally new and empowering way to think about your menopause and about yourself, some new friends, and with a starting point for your future plans.

What this workshop is not about

Although this workshop will cover aspects of a healthy lifestyle that impact on how we experience menopause it is not designed to provide individual medical advice to women with physical symptoms of menopause.
