Winter Retreat:

Snowshoe & Menopause Wellness

18 - 21 January 2024

Based in a beautiful luxury chalet in Essert Romand, on the outskirts of Morzine in the French Alps
 

Helping you to move mindfully through Menopause:

 A bespoke Menopause wellness retreat combined with snowshoeing in the fresh mountain air, we will be based in a beautiful chalet in Essert Romand, on the outskirts of Morzine in the French Alps
 

Where ever you are on this journey, this bespoke three-night retreat in the majestic French Alps is for women to take a pause and reflect on their current and past life chapters, to be able to learn, share and connect with others, to experience relaxation, exhilaration and rejuvenation whilst envisioning new perspectives.

 

Navigating this phase of life can often be overwhelming and dim our sense of thinking but this retreat will enable you to explore your inner self, set and achieve goals, and ultimately become the person you aspire to be.

_____

Throughout the retreat there will be:

 

• A daily snowshoe experience led by Vivien – learn how to snowshoe or refine your technique.  We will use the snowshoes to discover quiet walking paths where we can walk and chat about our experiences with the menopause whilst understanding the benefits of being in a natural environment and how this can positively impact our wellbeing.  Our snowshoe walk locations will vary and will also include menopause coaching sessions, a meditation session and a fun fondue lunch that we will make ourselves.

 

• Coaching sessions led by Jayne - Informal gatherings of sharing experiences in a safe space with others experiencing the same journey: The opportunity for interactive sessions on what is the menopause journey, how menopause impacts on your life, relationships, and work, and what can we do to manage this phase better. We will also discuss healthy foods, healthy bones, and the impact of cortisol in menopause: Identify how menopause impacts on your life and how self and group coaching can help you to work out how to positively move forward: The opportunity to examine your own resilience and find a path that is right for you to take forward.

 

• Yoga Sessions led by Katie  - 2 group yoga sessions throughout your stay including a bespoke bedtime sleep session!
