Ayurveda for menopause

Indie Foolhea

Ayurveda is a vast and ancient science that provides a solid foundation to live well in all phases of life. In alignment with the seasons, elements and your unique makeup, we can find balance wherever we are.
Menopause is one of many changes that make up the female reproductive system across a lifetime. By looking at the history of your cycle, we can start to see what menopause may look like and adjust accordingly. This time is all about soothing symptoms and nourishing the body to help this transition flow more smoothly through nutrition, lifestyle, herbs and therapies.

On November 16, Indie Foolheea (she/her), will be joining our regular Yoga for Menopause session to talk about how Ayurveda can help you on your transformational journey through this life change.

Indie is a Yoga and meditation guide, Ayurvedic Lifestyle consultant and Therapist. Her work is informed by sharing from the roots of Yoga and Ayurveda to our lives now. She also creates spaces for people of the global majority to be seen, heard and to rest. She believes that self care and collective care are inherently linked and shares with this in mind.

Indie shares a variety of practices beyond asana including Pranayama, mantra, meditation, marmas and mudras. Whilst also starting her own Ayurvedic practice supporting people through nutrition, herbs, lifestyle and bodywork.

If you would like to join this or our regular sessions, every Wednesday, 7.30-9pm upstairs at the Hanover Community Centre, email.

Yoga for Menopause workshop

Are you transitioning through perimenopause or menopause or are you emerging into your second spring of post-menopause? Are you curious to know more about this transformational time from a positive perspective (beyond the pathologising of symptoms and media panic)? Perhaps you’re even pre-menopausal and would like to learn about what the future might hold without the fear or mystery historically surrounding ‘the change’.

Would you like to meet a community of supportive, non-judgemental others to share experiences and wisdom within a safe, guided space, and then practise responsive yoga, meditation, breathwork, massage and holistic tools to positively help emotionally and physically with this transitional journey?

The workshop is accessible to and inclusive of all bodies regardless of age or gender identity.

Yoga for Menopause, July 10, 2022, 1-4pm, at Energy for Life (£40).
