Second Spring Nutrition and Yoga Perimenopause and Menopause Day Retreat

I am so pleased to bring you this nutrition and yoga day retreat, to support women in peri-menopause and menopause.

When? Sunday 27th September, 9:30am to 16:00pm.

Where? Sunfyr Barns, Framingham Pigot, Norfolk.

Suitable for: This isn’t just for people currently in peri-menopause. This is for all women who want to learn more about menopause.

So if you’re approaching perimenopause, going through it, have had a surgical menopause or you’ve been in menopause for some time, this is for you.

A time for women to come together, take time for self-nurture, learn from each other and how to take care of yourself during this phase of your life. No prior yoga experience needed.

Your Investment: £90 per person (Early Bird: please use code EarlyBirdSept for £5 off, valid until 31st July).

We all experience perimenopause and menopause uniquely. The “Second Spring” (a term originating from Traditional Chinese Medicine) reframes this life stage as a time of renewal, deep wisdom and rebirth… rather than ageing and decline. But I know when you’re in the midst of challenging symptoms, whether physically or emotionally, it can be so tough to embrace this journey.

Very often we don’t have the time to focus on nurturing ourselves, after years of nurturing others.

Yet there are so many simple things you can do to help yourself during the transition and beyond… whether you’re approaching perimenopause, full on in the midst of it, or you’ve been in menopause for some time.

As a healthcare professional who has supported women through perimenopause and beyond for over 15 years, I am so passionate about giving you simple, daily tools you can use to help bring back a little more balance during this phase. So that you can embrace your second spring with more vigour, excitement and see it as a time for growth and development.

In this nurturing women’s day retreat, we’ll gather to learn how to create a self-care toolbox. You’ll experience deep rest – with 2 yoga practices designed to help support you through perimenopause and beyond. This includes soothing breathwork practices, guided meditation, easy to follow Hatha and restorative yoga postures and a restful Crystal bowl soundbath to end our day.

You’ll also have 2 nutrition, herbal and lifestyle workshops – where we’ll talk about how to optimally nourish yourself during your second spring – from bone health to maintaining muscles, managing brain fog and supporting your energy, your state of calm and symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats and poor sleep.

You’ll leave armed with not only a carefully selected goody bag, but a complete wellness toolbox so that you can take back your wellness into your own hands.

I really look forward to seeing you there.
