ALCHEMY OF MENOPAUSE JOURNEY

The Journey of stepping into our power and becoming who we truly are is experienced through a framework that offers a positive supportive, empowering approach that guides you through an inner process, to a place of inner strength and wisdom.

This can help you to understand how the physical experiences of menopause are the body’s way of triggering profound transformation and self-realisation. Menopause is most often seen as a disease, not as the initiation it has the potential to be.

The framework is from the teachings of Cathy Skipper, based on C. G. Jung’s concepts of inner alchemy, within which women can safely and coherently work with the transmuting power of peri-menopause to become more fully who they really are and take their place in a world that is crying out for such wisdom.

Essential oils are used as guides along the way as there is nothing more powerful, yet safe and easy to use to explore our psyche than aromas.

There are 3 options:

Option 1: Experiential Journey

This option is a good place to start if you are new to using essential oils and or to the concept of being guided through an inward journey process.

It is an ideal starting point to explore a new way of looking at menopause. This information is designed to inspire you to develop your own ideas and find your own way and approaches to what is right for you including which essential oils resonate for you at this time and can become our own plant allies. It is also good preparation for the deeper journey.

Option 2: Deeper Journey

This is a follow on from the experiential journey taking you deeper in the 7 alchemical stages. By gaining an understanding and experience of the qualities of each stage, we can learn to recognize and become more conscious of what we’re going through. By maintaining and returning to awareness as we go through this cyclical inner journey that our psyche invites us on, we can transform seemingly challenging experiences into wisdom and progress on our life journey towards ‘Individuation’ – of becoming the Self.

NB: you don’t have to complete option 1 before undertaking option 2

Option 3: Preparation for Menopause

This option is for women wanting to prepare for the transformative journey of menopause. Gaining an understanding that peri-menopause is a natural, important, exciting passge for women, rather than an illness in need of treatment is a powerful knowledge to have at the beginning of the journey.

Reflections:

 

Are you experiencing so called menopausal symtoms? Not sure if what you are experiencing is “normal”?

Would you like to fully embrace this time in your life and see your needs and experiences during menopause in a new light so that instead of concentrating on physical changes and mourning what is passing you can transform your life’s experience into wisdom and embrace the wise woman you are becoming?

Do you want to experience menopause naturally but don’t know where to turn for information, tools and advice?

If you answered yes to any of or all of these questions then chances are the Alchemy of Menopause Journey could be for you.
