Journey into Second Spring – Wise Woman Workshops

An online live streaming, monthly workshop for women, who:

• are either coming into their menopause journey, or in the thick of it
• for the most part have moved most of the way through it, yet from time to time are having echoes of it
• for whatever reason have experienced an early menopause, or surgically induced menopause
• are taking HRT

The aim of this series of workshops is that you will end up with a selection of useful tools & techniques that will hopefully give you a sense of empowerment, rather than helplessness, not just around menopausal issues, but the rest of your life, thereby gaining insight & knowledge  about yourself as a woman of wisdom.

Menopause is arguably the biggest transformation in a woman’s life. We all have our story. We are given the opportunity to start to step into our own skin, heal past karmic patterns. And move forward with self -compassion, self- value,  inner knowledge and confidence. It is a voyage of self- discovery.

This is  for women ;

• who are coming into their menopause journey, or in the thick of it.
• It also encompasses those who, for the most part have moved most of the way through it, yet from time to time are having echoes of it.
• It also is for women who, for whatever reason have experienced an early menopause, or surgically induced menopause.
• It is also suitable for women who are taking HRT.

The aim is that you will end up with a selection of useful tools & techniques that will hopefully give you a sense of empowerment, rather than helplessness, not only around menopausal issues ,but also the rest of your life, thereby gaining insight & knowledge  about yourself as a woman of wisdom.

• Each month will have a different theme & you will be sent information on this prior to each session. This will invite you to do a bit of self -reflection, in the form of questions and practices. So that there is a continuity over the month. And the processing is not all squashed into the 2.5hrs. Self reflection will be one of the most valuable tools
• Each session will include 60mins yoga practice, using a range of yoga techniques to support menopausal symptoms, from hot flashes, to loss of calcium, anxiety, poor sleep, and so on.
• Also included will be nutritional suggestions; use of complementary therapies and mainstream support, HRT and much more.

The sessions are held monthly on the following dates:

• 4 July
• 1 August
• 5 September
• 3 October
• 7 November
• 5 December

Time: 14:30-17:00.

The ideal is to attend all 6 but if this is impossible, to attend those that you are able.

Fees:

• Upfront payment of all 6 sessions: £180 – Concessions £120
• Pay as you go one session at a time: £33 – Concessions £20

Diastasis Rectus Abdominis (Diastasis Recti) seems to have increased in the last two decades. This midline separation of women’s abdominal wall associated with pregnancy is often left untreated during the postnatal period and in later years.

This condition is not prevented by keep fit practices, including some forms of yoga for pregnancy. Yet with a balanced yoga practice, the midline tissue of the Linea Alba can be expected to be flexible and strong enough to withstand most pregnancies. A healthy abdominal wall is essential for a pain-free lower back, urinary continence, sexual health and pelvic organ support.

Bernadette has trained with Francoise Freedman of Birthlight & offers bespoke practices, for various forms of Diastasis Recti and umbilical hernias, which can all occur in pregnancy & the post natal period and may often remain undiagnosed for many years. So whether this is a condition that has not been addressed for many years, or you are experiencing it post natally or you are aiming to heal between pregnancies, there are simple, highly effective yoga based techniques that can make a positive impact.

Bernadette offers bespoke 1-1 yoga therapy for Diastasis recti in your own home or local studio.– contact Bernadette to find out more

Australian Bush Flower Essences are catalysts that can help with self healing, by helping people to work through and resolve a vast range of negative emotional states and imbalances and to develop intuitive awareness. The rationale behind their use for healing is based on the belief that when emotional balance is restored, true healing takes place; that much physical illness is the end result of emotional imbalance.

A detailed consultation is carried out before any essences are prescribed. They are not intended to be used as a substitute for medical treatment, yet can act in a supportive way.

Flower essences have been used throughout this planet by many cultures for millennia to promote healing in body, mind & spirit. I am consistently excited and humbled how these essences work with our intuitive selves, which always know what’s right for us.

If you are interested in working with these flower essences for healing on a deep level, I am currently offering consultations at a very special introductory fee, until 31 January 2020.
