Restful Yoga for the Menopause and Beyond
Sunday, March 10th NEW DATE
10 am - 4.30 pm
Half of the world's popluation will make the transition through menopause, a transition that can be both cahllenging and ultimately transformational.
One of the most helpful things we can do to smooth the transition is to move and breathe mindfully and to take plenty, plenty of rest. Something we are not always very good at if we are juggling family, work and...
Research has shown that a slow, attentive yoga practice which incorporates movement, breathwork and meditation can ease and alleviate many of the most common symptoms of menopause.
Join me for a full day workshop to learn techniques to ease your journey through this transformative time.
The day will include:
* 3 practical, tailored yoga sessions to support some of the common menopausal symptoms with specific asana, breathing techniques and restorative poses for each symptom.
* "What's happening to me?" A talk to discuss the basic facts of menopause and what is happening to your body and brain.
* A questionnaire to determine your individual Ayurvedic constitution, or dosha, which will help you understand your menopausal experience more clearly and offer supportive suggestions.
* Teas, coffee and a light lunch
The workshop is limited to 6 women and the investment is £66

How might it feel to view the world from upside down? An inversion can be a regular Downward facing dog pose or a head or shoulder balance... we will explore poses to create stability in our foundation and then go gently to see how far we wish to travel - the focus is exploration rather than achievement. For regular students, £15
We will come together to learn a few new mantras and practice them together over the session. A wonderful opportunity to create communal sound in a welcome space. £10
