A free 90 min workshop on Zoom for you to access self-compassion at this challenging time
7pm Wednesday 6th October
If you are perimenopausal, you are one of approximately 13 million in the UK who is making this journey at the moment.
A fifth of the population!
It would be a movement, except that there is so much shame, fear and negativity attached. Since last year there have been more conversations about perimenopause and menopause; a programme on Channel 4, a number of books ready for release in the next few months, lots of social media chatter, but there are still many of us who can’t get the information we need and are suffering without adequate support. In fact, the negativity may actually be making our symptoms worse, and we feel like we might be loosing the plot!
Please be reassured, you are not losing the plot, not at all.
Perimenopause is the beginning of the transformation that is the menopause process. It’s not how menopause is sold to us, but it IS an initiation. One where we embark on a journey that moves us towards birthing ourselves into the Second Spring of postmenopause, a time of potential, renewed creativity, vibrancy, and exploration. From the depths of perimenopause, it’s hard to see the potential, especially if all you hear and see is the negative narrative, or because, even with knowledge, you’re you’re having a rough time with it. Support and community are vital at this time.
At this free workshop, we’re offering the radical notion that bringing a compassionate attitude, enquiry and gentleness will guide you to the support you need. We’ll share how you can introduce care and understanding to your situation, which will soothe your system, and may help to reduce your symptoms.
Using a lovingly guided meditation, we’ll explore the gifts and resources available to you in perimenopause. There’ll be time to reflect and digest your experience afterwards, so you can craft yourself a unique self-kindness package to take away.
We’ll be meeting on Zoom and the workshop will be recorded for you to listen to later if you can’t make it live. The recording will be edited to exclude personal sharing.
This introductory workshop includes an invitation to join the Woman Kind online program ‘Perimenopause Unwrapped’ at a special discount.
