FREE WEEKLY CLASSES IF YOU SIGN UP TO JOIN THE STUDY
Women who are in a stage of menopause are being invited to join a 2-month study looking at the benefits of yoga in managing common symptoms of peri to post menopause.
The study requires women aged 40-60 to attend a weekly Menopause Yoga class taught live online and keeping a menopause journal for the duration of the study.
The Menopause Yoga classes include specialist techniques for managing hot flushes, night sweats, Menorage and irritability, anxiety and overwhelm, fatigue and insomnia, low mood and lethargy as well as overcoming sleep issues caused by hormone fluctuations.
So, if you're a woman aged 40s-50s and are in a stage of menopause, please consider giving your time to help other women by joining this study. Please let your friends know about the study.
The results of the study will be anonymised (you won't be identified), but you will be requested to provide basic information and contact details at the start of the study.
The results of the study will be used to benefit other women going through menopause and inform yoga teachers so that they can better support you in future.
