Navigating the Menopause Roller Coaster: How Intuition and Self-Exploration Can Lead to Empowerment
In this enlightening episode, Michelle welcomes the remarkable Maya Mendoza, an intuitive therapist and spiritual psychologist with over 45 years of experience, to the show. Maya shares her extraordinary journey, including a near-death experience that shaped her unique approach to healing and self-discovery. She delves into the profound connection between emotional well-being and menopausal symptoms, exploring how early life experiences can impact health during this transition. Maya introduces her concept of emotional alchemy, emphasising the importance of reframing perspectives on menopause as a transformative experience rather than a negative one.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
-
Emotional experiences, particularly those stemming from early childhood, significantly impact women's health during menopause. Women who have faced heavy emotional burdens may experience more severe menopausal symptoms due to repressed emotions affecting their physical health.
-
Emotional alchemy involves transforming negative emotions into positive energy by reframing one's perspective. Instead of focusing on problems, individuals can learn to process emotions through visualisation and metaphor, allowing for healing and a shift in emotional state.
-
Intuition plays a crucial role in navigating menopause. It helps individuals seek the right support and make informed decisions about symptom management, whether through HRT, herbs, or other holistic practices.
-
Understanding the menopause process is vital. Women are encouraged to educate themselves about their bodies and the changes they will experience, as this knowledge can reduce resistance and denial, leading to a smoother transition.
-
Menopause can be a transformative phase rather than a negative one. Embracing the changes can lead to personal growth, increased self-awareness, and a shift in priorities, allowing women to focus on their own needs and desires.
BEST MOMENTS
"I got to really experience other lifetimes and other ways of being and other planets, which may sound completely mad."
"When we have fluttered, heavy emotional experiences. we end up with this heaviness of not being believed and guilt for speaking up."
"Emotional alchemy is taking what you have, where it is now in its entirety, and then placing yourself in a different perspective."
"I think denial, resistance cause the biggest problems."
"You don't have to suffer with menopause symptoms, there's lots of different variants that we can address."
