Menopause as an invitation
To Release, Resort, and Renew
Welcoming you in🌿
I offer these courses not only from professional interest, but from lived experience. I know what it is like to move through periods of depression, emotional struggle, and suicidal thinking, and I also know how important it is to find spaces that are compassionate, grounded, and genuinely understanding.
My work has grown from my own life journey. Learning how to make sense of disappointment, perceived failure that comes with age, reconnect with myself, and find steadier ways of living through mindfulness, reflection, and Dharma. I bring this work with honesty, care, and deep respect for anyone navigating difficult inner terrain.
Over 20 years of experience being a compassionate course creator and therapeutic practitioner, my work now centres on supporting women through peri-menopause, menopause, and emotional transition with depth, warmth, and meaning.
Drawing on my MSc in Mindfulness Approaches, the Integral Theory methodology, relational awareness, and nature-based reflection, I create spaces that honour the whole person; mind, body, relationships, and wider life context.
My approach is both practical and soulful, helping women and couples navigate change with greater calm, connection, resilience, and remembering reverence for the life cycle they are living.
I look forward to meeting and working with you.
With Love,
Elaine Rose Leela x
