Mindfulness for Menopause and Beyond at Levens Hall

Are you hot, cold, confused, feeling unheard; wet, dry, crying, laughing, tired, oh so tired? If this is you, then come together with other women to share in the joy of discovering simple, everyday solutions to just being yourself again.

In May’s edition of Cumbria Life, journalist, Ellen Arnison, describes my Mindfulness Course as, “very powerful…I came away from her class with a sense of clarity and lightness.” So, let’s hope that Mindfulness can empower you to feel the same during this transition in your life as you join me on this Mindfulness for Menopause and Beyond day. 

What the course will look like:

• Wellness Walk: walk in beautiful surroundings, bathing in nature and its beauty whilst using the 5 senses to immerse yourself in the present moment without judgement; recognising in this pause who you are, what you want in this moment and what you need to let go of to give you the space to move forward at this time of your life.

• A treasure hunt for the small pleasures in life, understanding the negativity bias in our brains and how to re-train it to become more positive.

• ‘Kindness to self’ meditation – to have the wherewithal to care for others, we must first care for ourselves – remember, you need to put the oxygen mask on yourself before you put it on others! Through words, imagery and breath, we will learn to have kindness and compassion towards ourselves and I will show you the tools with which to habitually nurture yourself.

• Using small, mindful movements, we will move our bodies gently with the breath in a moving meditation finding ways to suit every mood and energy level we experience during menopause.

• I will show you how to balance your emotional regulation system in order to regulate the hormones and neural transmitters we activate in our brains. We will learn where these are situated in our neural pathways and how we can re-wire the brain through simple, everyday activities that we can stack into our everyday lives to save time and energy and to make us feel so much better.
