What if menopause isn’t the problem at all, but rather it’s a culture that says women should be a certain way and not the other?
What if the critical, forceful, provocative energy of menopause is actually a sign that you’re coming to your senses?
so you can experience menopause as meaningful and dignifying (no matter how mad, bad or challenging your symptoms currently are).

The brilliance of menopause has become subsumed in a culture in denial of cyclical life. A culture obsessed with constant production, consumption, growth and doing.
Menopause interrupts the current cultural momentum and as such is often portrayed as a problem. A looming disaster. Something to be endured.
Many women find themselves blindly navigating their way through this transition, feeling lost, mad and dismissed.
They have been cast outside of a dignified holding and respect for this rite of passage that is, in fact, significant to the whole community.
Menopause is an initiation - an adventure in spiritual maturation - that can deliver you to a place of great meaning and power, a sense of inner coherence and belonging, and dare we say, Union.
Yes, a deep spiritual fulfilment - a sense of connection to and serving something Greater. This course reveals the spiritual truth of menopause - it’s a restoration of its deep spiritual meaning, the true story that is trying to happen regardless of whether you are connected to it or not.
We warmly invite you to join us for this year’s live Menopause: The Great Awakener programme. Together we will call up the spiritual significance and healing power of menopause through our teachings and exercises, your individual stories and experiences, and so discover its power to awaken us to ourselves and our responsibility to Life.
Menopause can be a homecoming, a feeling of at last recognising who you are and having the kindness and strength of heart to finally receive and anoint yourself as OK.
Menopause is a holy initiation, a pause in ‘normal life’ that catapults you into an unknown territory.
What you may not know is that there is a meaningful process at work - an inner orchestration that is exquisitely designed to deliver you home to your true self.
The deep truth is menopause is a moment of powerful awakening.
It profoundly serves the woman and the whole community of life. Initially it reveals your shadow, your wounding, in order that you might fully receive yourself and be freed to be who you are. And thus come in to a sweet intimacy with life and what it is calling you to step up to.
The course will:
Who is this programme for?
If you’re reading this, we imagine you sense there is more to menopause than the collective story dictates, and you’re feeling called to reclaim the power of the menopause initiation...
You might be:
Wherever you are in the menopause journey, and whatever you are experiencing, you are welcome. We invite you to bring the fullness of who you are, and the fullness of your experience however messy, complicated, confusing, uncertain, unknowing it might be. All our experiences hold at their heart a deeper story of power.
To clarify, this programme is for any woman* who:
*Not everyone who goes through menopause identifies as a woman, and not all women go through menopause. We honour and support trans and non-binary lives.
**If you are younger than this but feel a strong desire to join please do so with an understanding that it will be more of a theoretical exercise. You will, in a sense, be sitting in on something that you can't fully participate in. It may however serve you to have ‘advanced notice’ of menopause and offer you information you can pass on in your professional work.If you are younger than this but feel a strong desire to join please do so with an understanding that it will be more of a theoretical exercise.

It is crucial now that we all come together to serve the planet in our own unique ways.
Our cycle is coded with our particular gifts and menopause is the ultimate moment of bringing us into alignment with ourselves and these gifts so that we may be potent and effective agents of change in the world.
This course is designed to support you to discover a deep peace with who you are and, from this resourced well spring, step into your full authority and leadership.
The world needs more women in their full power. The world needs you.

Menopause is a death and a rebirth - the ending of a way of life you have lived to date, and the beginning of a new, more expanded consciousness. Think of it as a spiritual upgrade. The only snag is that initially it can feel like you have fallen off the edge of the world, into a seemingly empty and unknown space.
There’s a kind of hidden intelligence at work within this apparent emptiness - the subtle interior architecture of the five phases of menopause is holding and working you...

We believe that the first phase of menopause, Betrayal, holds the most power, and also the potential for most disturbance. Without a deep appreciation of what is going on here, it can be dangerous. However, once you understand the power of this phase, you will be well and truly set you up for the whole process of menopause (as well as your post-menopause life).

The Repair phase invites you into a time of deep letting go in order to allow a completion of the life you have lived to date, to make peace with your past, and to heal your body and soul. It is the phase in which you need the most time and space for yourself to do remarkably little beyond taking care of your inner life and overall well being.

The Revelation phase is the deep heart of the journey, and the pivot point that subtly orients you for the return to the world. This is a big gear change, as you reorient yourself to the future. You are beginning the process of awakening to who you truly are. This is the ground we have been seeking through the previous two phases and it is from this place that the path out of menopause can begin.

As you enter the phase of Visioning, you are awakening to the fullness of your Calling. This is the ‘gold’ that emerges from the inner care of the previous stages of the menopause journey. You know what you are about in a new way and you can experience a deeper refinement and connection to what you are serving in this life.
