Food, fitness and flaws – a whole body health workshop for pre and perimenopausal women

Discover how to harmonise with your hormones and thrive through your 40’s and perimenopause.

This 2 part workshop brings together the information and practical advice you need to navigate your perimenopausal years and thrive.

Combining over 40 years of combined expertise from a Chartered Physiotherapist, Claire Callaghan and Registered Dietitian, Laura Clark, both trained to look at your whole body health holistically.

No gimmicks, no fluff, just credible science, tailored and accessible to you.

This is for you if:

You feel you’d like to get armed with a good understanding about what to expect through the perimenopause and what you can do to help yourself through this stage in an empowering and nurturing way.

  • Life is busy and the information out there feels endless. Let us show you the quick wins and what you REALLY need to know in amongst the noise.
  • You’d like to find ways to support your body and health through perimenopause that are completely doable and fit into your real world.
  • You’re aware your physical and emotional health matters, so that you can do what needs to be done for everyone else, but sometimes it feels like a struggle to know where to start or what to do to make a difference and actually feel better.

With the right information and support, our perimenopausal years can really be the time we step into our power. How would that feel for you?

Why flaws?

Claire and Laura have been working with beautiful humans for over 20 years each. They understand how complex we are and that simply being given knowledge is not enough to evoke change. Whilst the pelvic floor will always be important, so is a nod towards the fact, we like to work with real women, juggling it all in an imperfect way. That’s life and we’re very much in it too!

What we’ll cover:

  • Signs and symptoms of perimenopause and how to work out what they mean.
  • How hormonal and physiological changes can impact our physical wellbeing, anxiety and stress levels, mood and relationships.
  • Treatment options for managing symptoms.
  • How diet, lifestyle and certain types of physical activities can help with hot flushes, headaches, mood and energy fluctuations, bone, muscle and heart health.
  • Bone and muscle strength changes, joint pain, exercises to help you through menopause.
  • Food and meal ideas to support symptoms and improve well-being and energy levels.
  • How to make changes feel doable in day to day life when coping with work and family demands.
  • The role of nutrition in emotional fitness and goal setting.
  • Signposting to resources to support conversations with other menopause professionals, such as your GP.
  • Reducing post-menopausal breast cancer risk.
