FEATURED COURSE

An exploration through the menopausal crossing

The menopausal transition can be one of the most significant passages in a woman’s life, and one of the least supported.

Drawing on Chinese medicine, qigong, tarot and plant medicine, Ruby Phoenix explores the physical, emotional and social changes that can unfold from peri-menopause through to post-menopause.

We’ll work with ideas such as Kidney Jing, Heart Fire and the Five Elements, alongside questions of ageing, identity, grief, power and what it means to live in a changing body.

This transition is personal, but it doesn’t happen outside the world we live in. Ruby Phoenix makes space for both: what is happening within us, and the wider stories and expectations that shape how we experience it.

In this 6-week workshop you will be guided through an introduction to women’s qigong and each of the Five Elements in Chinese medicine to form a complete 5-Element practice.

I really enjoyed learning about the oils and Pen’s presentations. She has a way of exploring and delving into theory with a vibrancy and earthiness that carries you through into a place you don’t want to leave.

It was a profound experience of connecting with my own inner voice & sense of myself in the world. I think I have changed Pen, as a result of working with you & tarot. I feel stronger, braver, clearer & more me.

I really looked forward to each session, as I really enjoyed your teaching style. You're very relaxed and warm in the way you teach, which helped me feel comfortable.
