Description

This course is designed to nurture a sense of belonging to enable easy, empathetic, useful discussion with women who are experiencing similar issues to you.

It allows the space for you to completely individualise and tailor recommendations for you to take back control of your health and make informed, empowered choices regarding your lifestyle, diet and fitness.

We aim to provide you with a sense of belonging when you are stepping into a different phase of your life, which can feel frightening and as if you have lost yourself.

This course is hosted by Morven Hamilton (Menopause yoga, mindfulness, health and wellbeing coaching) and Amy Payne (nutrition, welllness coaching), with guest teachers Erica Tijssen (hypnotherapy, life-coaching) and Ed Robinson (personal fitness training).

Course format

Our community will be a group of up to eight women and the course tutors.

Each Monday, we will meet in circle to discuss our “wins” for the week. Each week, there will be a key host or a guest teacher who will share useful information and lead a group practice, and be available to ask any questions you may have. You will not need to bring any special equipment with you, as all equipment for yoga will be provided, although you are welcome to bring your own. We will sit in chairs unless we're doing a yoga or other movement practice.

There will be some discussion as a whole group, in small groups and in pairs. You won't be expected to speak in the whole group unless you want to, and you'll have plenty of time to discuss any issues you wish to either in smaller groups or one to one with one of the tutors. You won't be expected to share anything that makes you feel at all uncomfortable - you are in control.

What you will learn (see the website for full details)

To address energy levels, weight management, anxiety, brain fog, restful sleep and digestion, you’ll learn how to balance your hormones through some key pillars:

How to feel energised throughout the day

How to support your digestion for skin and hair health, through movement and nutrition

Course content:

Bi-weekly Yoga Nidra sessions led by Morven. Yoga nidra is widely used by women in their menopause transition and anecdotal evidence states that it has helped women to sleep better and reduced hot flushes and night sweats. Deep relaxation has been shown to reduce stress hormone cortisol and promote feel-good oxytocin which has a positive effect on sex hormones and menopause symptoms.

Bi-weekly Menopause Yoga sessions led by Morven - yoga to minimise symptoms and keep muscle, brain, bone and digestion healthy through the changes. During the sessions Morven will share valuable information about what your changing body needs regarding movement and relaxation.

Weekly guided meditation and gratitude practices to instil wellbeing at the core

Bi-weekly nutrition and lifestyle coaching led by Amy along with a recipe specific to the topic covered each session. Each session is designed to arm you with the knowledge, tools and tips you need to start tackling your troublesome symptoms.

Two sessions with Personal Trainer Ed Robinson who has expertise in strengthening women in their peri and menopausal years for bone, muscle and hormone health, as well as promoting mental clarity and confidence. Ed will demystify the culture of the gym, and help you to integrate an exercise routine that is appropriate and enjoyable for your unique self.

Two sessions with hypnotherapist and life coach Erica Tijssen, who will guide you towards positive outcomes for your health and wellbeing, and help you to overcome self-limiting beliefs.

Weekly troubleshooting and problem-solving as a group which is vitally important to make habits which last the test of time. Together we will create goals and strategies, and support each other as we find out what works for us and what doesn't.

What else is included?

A group WhatsApp where you’ll encourage, motivate and learn together throughout the week and have access to Amy and Morven for ongoing troubleshooting and support to keep you on track.

Lifetime access to The Step Into Abundance video library so that you can continue your wellness journey beyond the course.

Ongoing mentorship from Amy and Morven even after the course has finished to encourage accountability, companionship and a sense of community as you continue your wellness journey at home.

Morven and Amy are so passionate about this course providing you with meaningful change at this important phase of your life that they will be extending their mentorship beyond the 3-month programme and inviting you to attend a reunion session 3 months following the end of the programme on Monday 23rd October 7-8.30pm. This session is intended for you to catch up with your community, talk through the highs and lows of your journey and look to the future with more helpful tips and advice from the group.
