A Holistic Journey through Yoga, Ayurveda & Mindset Coaching

Navigating the transition of menopause requires more than just a yoga class—it requires a roadmap for the body, mind, and spirit. Steel City Yoga has partnered with Belief Maker Coaching to offer a recurring series of 2.5-hour workshops designed to help you move through perimenopause and post-menopause with clarity, vitality, and grace.

The Philosophy: Why This Is Different

Most menopause support focuses solely on physical symptoms. We look deeper. Using the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda and the holistic application of Viniyoga, we address the energetic and emotional shifts that define this "Second Spring."

Beyond the Physical

In our workshops, yoga isn't just about "gentle stretching." We use:

  • Viniyoga Principles: Breath centered movement that prioritises your nervous system.

    Ayurvedic Wisdom: Understanding menopause as a "Vata" (air/space) transition. We teach you how to ground your energy, cool "Pitta" heat (hot flushes), and nourish your system during a time of depletion.

    The Mental Path: Using Pranayama (breath) and meditation to quiet "brain fog" and soothe the racing thoughts often associated with hormonal shifts.

A Powerful Collaboration - Movement Meets Mindset

This series is a unique synergy between two specialists. We believe that to feel truly balanced, you have to address both the body and the mind.

  • Steel City Yoga (Marcia): Provides the Ayurvedic framework and the yoga tools to stabilise your physical and energetic body.

  • Beliefmaker Coaching (Cat): Provides the emotional "internal toolkit." Through professional wellbeing coaching and reflective journaling, Cat helps you process the identity shifts of menopause and build lasting emotional resilience.

What to Expect in Each workshop:

These sessions offer a deep dive into self-care:

  • Ayurvedic Foundations: Short talks on how to use food, herbs, and daily rituals to cool "Pitta" (hot flushes) or ground "Vata" (anxiety/insomnia).

  • Integrated Yoga Practice: A themed slow, breath centered Viniyoga practice.

  • Breath & Sound: Using specific techniques to anchor the mind when it feels scattered or overwhelmed.

  • Reflective Coaching & Journalling: Guided by Cat, using prompts to explore your internal narrative and build emotional resilience.

  • Nourishment: Ayurvedic-inspired herbal teas and snacks, with time for shared connection.
