Join me for Rebranding Menopause, a transformative lecture dedicated to uncovering the truth about menopause. Just as women have reclaimed their birthing experiences, moving beyond the clinical approaches of the past, it’s time to empower ourselves with a deep understanding of the physiological, mental, and spiritual aspects of peri-, meno-, and post-menopause.This interactive, experiential lecture will explore cultural perceptions, ancestral beliefs, and mindsets surrounding menopause. We’ll also explore essential facts about our bodies through the lenses of Western, Eastern, and Indigenous wisdom. "Menopause deserves a rebranding because where there is fear, there is truth. It’s time to give menopause a new, empowering identity." ~ OdaThis session will go beyond the physical symptoms—like hot flashes and changes in libido—to explore the root causes and embrace the unique transformation menopause brings to both body and mind."Together, we’ll delve into how the stages of menopause unfold in a profoundly personal way, touching on hormonal changes, their significance, and holistic approaches to managing them. Guided meditation and reflective questions will help deepen the experience, inviting you to connect to this journey more intuitively.
