YOGA FOR THE MENOPAUSE & PERIMENOPAUSE WORKSHOP

1-DAY ONLINE WORKSHOP
SUNDAY 23 APRIL 2023 (9AM -5pm)

🌸ABOUT THE WORKSHOP
The Yoga for the Menopause/ Perimenopause CPD workshop is unique as it counts on the invaluable experience of yoga-teaching Obstetrician and Gynaecologist Sangeeta Mittal,
Senior yoga teacher and director of Yoga Mama Cherie Lathey,
And specialist Women’s Health/ Restorative Yoga teacher Claire Dobbs,

In the workshop we look primarily at giving yoga teachers and health professionals the information and tools to support women who are going through the menopause/ perimenopause period and learn about the hormonal changes that occur at this time.

The aim of this one-day CPD workshop is to give yoga teachers a guide with which to work safely and confidently with menopausal women.
Promote a greater understanding of the huge impact that hormones have on the body during the perimenopausal and menopausal period.
Learn suitable postures for menopausal/ perimenopausal women and the effects these have on the body
Create a nurturing calming environment for women

WHAT WE WILL COVER

Among the topics that we will cover ;
What is the menopause?
Hormones and the changes that occur during the menopause
Pelvic Floor Maintenance / Yoni Shakti
Osteoporosis
HRT and natural remedies
Asana
Pranayama
Restorative Yoga and Yoga Nidra

This workshop is primarily aimed at qualified yoga teachers and women’s health professionals or women who have an interest in finding out more about the menopause, and managing symptoms with yoga.
We have been running this workshop for a number of years, and have built up a wealth of resources to share with you.

My early morning online yoga flow has returned every Tuesday at 8am.
I would say this is a feminine yoga practice & whilst it has its roots in ashtanga yoga - it’s a bit more mellow and playful.
Like all my classes I only run small groups so only a few places available.

Cezanne.
Yesterday my daughter and I visited the wonderful exhibition of French painter Paul Cezanne at the Tate modern. I’m not sure how much longer it is on for but it’s well worth a visit.
These images are some of my favourites.
Cally and I always play the “ would you have it in your house?” game. All of these would make it into the fantasy house full of art.
High brow art critics 😂
Anyone else do this or just us?

A big shout out on international women’s day to my beautiful, talented, fearless, kindhearted, inspirational, artist/designer/producer daughter - never afraid to give anything a go and leading the way for younger women to follow - I am a super proud mama .
❤️❤️❤️

Mixing up my reading.
Fact and fiction.
BREATH by James Nestor is a good reminder of the effect the breath has on both our mind and body ( the yogis have known this for centuries). I have recommended this to a chest physician friend - as it’s a great read for anyone.

THE MOUNTAIN SHADOW
Is the sequel to Shantaram - pure indulgent fiction - it transports me to the chaos and vibrancy of India….but also the darker side that is definitely not joyful - both good reads for different reasons.

Anyone have any comments about either?

Fabulous educational morning with yoga teacher/child psychologist Polly James on our childrens yoga teacher training. 💕

She shared so much fascinating information including, psychology strategies for managing childrens behaviour.

“Most human behaviour is learned observationally through modelling: from observing others, one forms an idea of how behaviours are formed, and on later occasions this coded information serves as a guide for action”
Bandura

First day of our childrens yoga and mindfulness teacher training is under way. Wonderful yoga teacher Kara Wirt is the senior yoga teacher facilitating this course, and heading up the excellent team.


Having met the students briefly this morning, I can also say what a wonderful group they are too - bringing their own wisdom & knowledge to share with the group, 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼.

Autumn Yin season. 🍁🍁🍁
Autumn is the start of the yin season - where we let go of the summer Yang (which was particularly fiery this year🔥☀️) and settle into the quieter, slower yin space.
Whilst yin is definitely slow, it is not always easy … in fact when I first came to it following 20 + years of practising dynamic, ashtanga yoga I found it really difficult…
“sitting with yourself” is not always easy.
My practice now is a mixture of both disciplines, but I tend to practice them separately on different days… we all have to find what works for ourselves, and at 60 this currently works for me.
Here are some of the Yin books I recommend - these are in no particular order.
📚
🍁Yin Yoga ( (a quiet practice)
By Paul Grilley
🍁Yinsights By Bernie Clarke
🍁Brightening our inner skies By Norman Blair ( who I did my training with).
🍁Insight yoga By Sarah Powers
🍁The language of yin By Gabriella Harris ( I’m still reading this one).
Any others you can recommend?
Ps the one with the most ‘post it’s’ in is Yinsights 😊

( (a quiet practice)
By By By ( who I did my training with).
By

So today I turn 60.

I’m not sure how that happened as in my head I’m still 22.
I would like to say I’m now older, wiser and well behaved but I’m not entirely sure that is true 😂 (def older obviously)

Big shout out my beautiful family for all they do for me and providing me with a wonderful cake to match my dress 😊😂 ❤️

And to all my friends & family for being on life’s journey with me. ❤️

Last chance to join our online Postnatal yoga workshop on Sunday 11th September 9-5pm.
These images are from a wonderful day course in September 2019.
Some of these women have since had babies, and many supported postnatal women online, throughout the pandemic…. Postnatal yoga can be a safe haven for women with new babies….it is so much more than exercise…community and support is a key part of postnatal yoga - as is gently & safely coming back into a new post birth body.

Do you want to support postnatal women in yoga classes? We still have some spaces available on our postnatal training day coming up this Sunday.
