Am I menopausal?
As every woman’s experience of menopause is different, there are a wide range of symptoms that could indicate that you’re entering the perimenopause or menopause. To make things even more confusing, these symptoms can come and go as your hormone levels change. Symptoms can begin many years before the menopause (peri menopause stage) and can last many years after the menopause (post menopause stage).​
Physical Symptoms can include: Heart Palpitations • Difficulty in sleeping • Feeling tired or lacking in energy • Feeling dizzy or faint • Headaches • Tinnitus • Dry mouth and eyes • Sore gums • Muscle and joint pains • Breathing difficulties • Needing a wee more often, or having leaks of urine • Vaginal dryness, soreness • More thrush, cystitis episodes • Dry or itchy skin • Thinning hair • Poor sleep
Psychological Symptoms can include: • Low mood • Anxiety • Feeling tense or nervous • Memory problems • Attacks of anxiety or panic • Difficulty concentrating • Loss of interest in most things • Feeling unhappy or depressed • Crying spells • Irritability • Mood swings • Loss of confidence • Reduced self-esteem • Brain fog • Loss of interest in sex and/or level of arousal
Vasomotor Symptoms can include: • Hot flushes • Sweating at night
MY Workshops
Many women feel isolated and alone when they go through menopause so MY workshops provide a sense of community. These workshops are an enjoyable way to share your experiences with other women, laugh and embrace the changes while also learning from each other.​
You will learn yoga poses, breathing techniques and mindful meditation practises to manage your main menopause symptoms, and take away useful information about natural remedies, nutrition, Ayurveda and medical approaches to HRT.
MY has been created after years of research by fully qualified and experienced yoga teacher Petra Coveney who is also a member of the British Menopause Society. Her Menopause Yoga Teacher Training programme has been accredited by both the British Wheel of Yoga (BWY) and Yoga Alliance (YA).
