For women claiming deeper wisdom, empowerment and pleasure during their perimenopause & menopause
There are times when the menopause transition can be challenging, both physically and emotionally. Just when we thought we knew ourselves, it's like the rug is pulled out from under us!
We can choose to live this transition as an empowering and exciting initiation to becoming a wiser, more nourished, content and embodied woman; a new chapter and the best time of our lives.
These one-day events on meaningful themes offer you a well-deserved and sacred pause to breathe, reflect on your journey, and connect with your body and inner wisdom.
Designed for women feeling the 'change', these day retreats include:
- short talks to inform you and inspire self-enquiry,
- customised yoga, breathwork, meditation, and energy practices to release stress, relieve symptoms, and support a strong body, and clear mind,
- restorative yoga for deep rest and to welcome change, and
- facilitated sharing spaces to reflect, connect and have a laugh with other women.
As a certified teacher in Yoga for the stages of Menopause, Advanced Restorative Yoga, and Yoga Nidra, as well as a Heart IQ Circle Facilitator, and Massage therapist, I'll be bringing a wealth of practices to explore. Plus! some very lovely guest experts.
You'll gain self-awareness, practical tips and tools for healthy habits, self-listening and self-care, as well as a community of courageous, kind-hearted and inspiring women!
My intention is for you to leave feeling empowered, uplifted, and more at peace in this beautiful and transformative stage of life.
Magic happens when we gather, we circle, and we attune to Life.

Yet here, I hold the quality of space holder, enabler, catalyst, for you to be your own guide, and find your inner teacher, healer and lover. My role is to create the conditions for a welcome, safe, and intimate space to explore vulnerably and powerfully together. I am also a sister on this journey, deep in my perimenopause transition.”
