Details of this retreat
Menopause marks a significant transition in a woman’s life, signaling the end of reproductive years and the beginning of a new chapter. While it’s a natural phase, the hormonal changes and associated symptoms can sometimes make this transition challenging.
You may find you increasingly struggle with mood swings, low mood, depression, irritability, anger, panic and anxiety.
On our Menopause Wellbeing Retreats, we aim to provide an understanding of the nutrition, lifestyle, exercise and complementary therapies that can support women through Perimenopause and Menopause, allowing them to transition with grace and vitality.
At this retreat, we aim to provide a non-judgmental environment where women feel able to relax and discuss their experiences yet leave empowered with knowledge that can support them on their journey through Menopause. It’s not just about addressing physical symptoms, it’s about learning to put your own wellbeing first, in order that you can live a full and vibrant life, being the best version of ourselves.
Benefits of this retreat:
Time to relax and revive and spend time with like-minded people
More time for self-reflection
Nourishing food to reset your system.
Daily gentle exercise.
Gong bathing helps to reset the Vagus nerve and reduces stress hormones
Time in nature to calm the body and the overactive mind.
Develop healthy habits that support your lifestyle at this time of your life.
