Cirencester - DiscovYou Menopause Day Retreat with Kaliyoga, DiscovHer & friends.

Kaliyoga, Discovher and friends welcome you to an uplifting day of self-care focused on how to restore balance in your life before, during and after Menopause.

A Woman’s Hour study earlier this year found that 48 per cent of women believe the menopause has a negative impact on their mental health and mood. A quarter said it made them want to stay at home, with a further 23 per cent reporting it reduced their enjoyment of life. More than 70 per cent of women didn’t have a strong understanding of the menopause, which led to some being unaware of the effects it would have on their physical and mental health.

We promise to give you a better understanding of the various changes our hormones and body can go through during the menopause with plenty of support and understanding to help you during this transition in your life.

THE DAY INCLUDES:

Kaliyoga will transport some warmth to the UK from its retreats in Spain & Italy, with an uplifting yoga session with the beautifully zen, Holly Warren.

Ellie, of Elspeth's Kitchen and Norty Puds is a trained health and wellness coach who will provide inspiration for your diet, health and lifestyle during the menopause and a delicious and nutritious lunch and a 'raw cake' afternoon tea.

Gill Kirkham will guide you on an energetic journey to help you to tune in to your mind/body connection and give you more intuitive awareness of your body and it's needs during the menopause.

Tabitha, of award winning Tabitha James-Kraan Organic Hair Care will be giving advice and tips to help your hair reach its potential as our hormones fluctuate. Tanya Hawkes from Therapi will show how to naturally nourish, brighten and revitalise your skin using pure organic food ingredients.

We will send you home with a beautiful healthy glow and a goody bag with wonderful treats and offers.
