Welcome to the fire, feel the burn!

We will engage the body, mind and soul in enquiry, using movement, mindfulness and meditation practice a cooling restorative practice, devise personal affirmation, mantras to take home, and take away practices to navigate this major life transition.
Aimed at facilitators who are working with students and clients suffering from menoapausal hot flushes, are troubled by the ageing process, and the over-tired, fatigued, exhausted, and confused. With some studying and guided snoozing practices to replay during hte night, we explore how to change your relationship with menopause and insomnia, and offer creative practices for when sleep is elusive.
We will cover a little science, a blast of philosophy and enlightening psychology of a disturbed mind.
