About this Event
“ I see menopause as the start of the next fabulous phase of life as a woman. Now is a time to ‘tune in’ to our bodies and embrace this new chapter. “
~ Kim Cattrall
A relaxed mini morning retreat in the beautiful surroundings of the Whitworth Art Gallery, in partnership with Whitworth's age friendly Creative Menopause project.
Yoga, breathwork and mindfulness can help you manage symptoms of perimenopause and menopause through a combination of yoga poses, breathing techniques and mindfulness practices, which foster body positivity and are accessible to everybody, whatever your size, shape or ability. You can expect to feel stronger, calmer and more self-confident, with more tools and resources to help you through this natural transition.
You'll enjoy the benefits of:
• Simple yoga stretches, breathing techniques and mindfulness exercises to release tension held within the body, replenish your energy and calm your mind.
• Insights into the Eastern and Western science of what happens at menopause, how you can improve your hormone balance, reduce stress and anxiety and maintain a healthy body and mind.
• Exploration of different menopause symptoms.
• Sharing experiences and knowledge in the company of others going through the menopause.
• An opportunity to pause, rest, relax and replenish.
• Self reflection through journalling
