9 Steps to a Compassionate Menopause

With Henny Flynn

Everyone’s menopause is unique. And we each experience our own challenges (and joys) as we move through this time of life. But sometimes we need some support. These 9 Steps are here to guide you. They’re not linear - just as the changes we experience in menopause don’t follow a predictable pattern. Each step is valuable in its own way, and they’re all interconnected. Give yourself some time to work through what each of these means for you, on YOUR menopause path. And see what further steps you can take to (re)write your menopause story. Honouring your needs, being open to support, and listening to your inner wisdom are all aspects of self-compassion. And are all powerful elements of how you can truly support yourself, as you move through this important life stage. Each lesson closes with some time for reflection... to write, to meditate, to rest; to do whatever is best for you at that moment. Always responding with compassion.

Lesson 1

The Power of Sharing

Today, I share why compassion is such a vital part of menopause and how it can feel far easier to express and feel compassion toward others... rather than ourselves. I also walk you through step 1 of the 9 steps: SHARE, seeing how sharing with others not only supports us but can be equally valuable for them.

Lesson 2

Exploring Ways To Adjust

Step 2 is EXPLORE. This is all about how deepening our understanding of what's going on can really support ourselves in seeing what would best support us. We then move on to Step 3: ADJUST. This is not about giving up or giving in, it's about seeing what we can and what we can't control - and choosing where we place our attention... and where we spend our energy.

Lesson 3

Reframing With Compassion

When we REFRAME something we learn ways of looking at it differently. This is Step 4 of the 9 Steps, and I share how bringing more compassion to our gaze helps us in that reframing process. We then look at the mother of all these steps... COMPASSION. You'll also hear a useful practice that can help you access more compassion when it feels hardest.

Lesson 4

Hope That Leads To Insight

HOPE is Step 6. You'll hear how this is a deeply powerful mindset to choose, and how it is a choice we can all make. From hope we move to Step 7 and the wisdom of INSIGHT - hearing how learning about the science and biology of menopause can help us create that more compassionate place of awareness.

Lesson 5

Nourishing And Gathering

In our final day of the course, I share a little of my own menopause story, and how I learnt why self-compassion is such a vital part of how we move through this important life stage. We hear Step 7 is NOURISH and I share the breadth and depth of what self-care truly means. Then we close with Step 9: GATHER. Of course, just being here is a way of gathering with others. And I'm grateful to have 'gathered' with you to share these 9 Steps.

What a beautiful, empowering offering, full of wisdom, compassion and kindness. Im drawn to the adjustment step. As I think of retreating in my work Im now reframing and perhaps I need to press on w ambition w compassion. Thank you very much. Ive enjoyed every moment, and will repeat as there's so much in it. Thank you.
