Mindful Menopause - Empowerment and Sharing Group -

The "Mindful Menopause" project was born after taking a course on Menopause in the workplace.

Although I had already worked on the quality of life of women in menopause in collaboration with Schering and Prof. Willy Pasini, I must admit that my knowledge on the subject increased significantly as my training progressed. Although I knew how important hormones were in our lives and for the normal activities of our bodies, I had not fully understood their great impact on the female body, in social relationships, in the family and with colleagues in the workplace.

It was at this point that I understood the importance of raising awareness and supporting women during this normal phase of life. There is still a lot of ignorance and a great taboo on the subject. Even less is said about men who go through what is very simply called 'midlife crisis' but in reality there is much more behind it.

My first logical reaction, after carefully observing and talking to some women, was to organize an informative webinar on menopause and andropause, which then gave rise to conversation and meditation groups for women in perimenopause and menopause. In these groups, every time a topic is discussed, a moment of reflection and self-awareness opens up through mindfulness.

Recently, after publishing a video on my Facebook page in which I talked about my mindfulness sessions in menopause, I received several positive feedbacks that convinced me even more to start the online sessions.
Follow me on my website, on my Facebook page and on my Youtube channel to stay updated on my sessions and on the registrations to the "Menopause and Empowerment Group".

Participation in the group requires a contribution of €12, a minimum of 10 people and a maximum of 12.
