Health and the Menopause
The chance to study the reproductive system, hormones and the impact they can have on everyday life.
The session focuses not just on oestrogen and progesterone but the other hormones that also play a crucial part at this time of life.
It will also focus on ways to alleviate symptoms, exploring the different types of Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) as well as natural alternatives, and the impact of looking after your health and wellbeing.
The sessions are designed to provide a safe space for open discussion, with a chance for people to share their own experiences if they feel comfortable.
You’ll leave armed with all the information you need to have open, productive conversations about the menopause, whether that’s with friends, family, colleagues or health professionals.
Food and the Menopause
An in-depth look at nutrition and the menopause.
The session explores how stress, hormones and the menopause are all impacted by the food we eat.
You’ll learn more about what good nutrition looks like and how to eat a ‘menopause friendly’ diet – with recipes provided.
There’ll be an introduction to phytoestrogens and the foods that contain them, as well as information on midlife weight gain and how to manage it.
The session also explores the different supplements that may help with menopausal symptoms, exploring the benefits and the risks, enabling you to make informed decisions.
Psychology and the Menopause
The menopause can have a huge impact not just on physical health but also on your emotional health.
This session will focus on the psychological impact of hormones, exploring the chemical changes that are happening in the brain.
From anxiety and depression to sleep deprivation and loss of self-confidence, participants will begin to understand why they feel the way they do and be able to share their experiences with others.
You’ll learn how to menopause-proof relationships and explore self-help methods like mindfulness and thought-balancing. There’ll also be information on who to reach out to for further professional help if needed and how to broach these conversations.
