Mastering Midlife for Women

Exercise, Nutrition & Menopause

We all know the benefits of exercise & nutrition for maintaining life-long health but for Midlife Women, hormonal change can sometimes make it difficult to continue with our normal routines. The two big questions are “Why has exercise become so hard” and “Why have I gained weight?”

There is no one answer to this question, this answer lies in figuring out our menopause jigsaw of HRT (optional), specific exercise, specific nutrition and self-care. When all the pieces in the jigsaw join that is where the magic happens, and we get back to feeling like ourselves again.

Mastering Midlife for Women workshop is a 4-hour online workshop taking place over 2 evenings Tuesday 28th March and Tuesday 4th April form 7pm-9pm.  It is ideal for all women from 35+ years, who are wondering how peri-menopause and menopause is affecting them mentally and physically and how making small changes could increase energy levels, improve sleep, improve moods and decrease weight gain. Cost of 4 hour workshop is €20 – places are limited so early booking is advised.
