About This Event

Half the world's population will go through menopause, yet for decades, the sexual, hormonal, and somatic dimensions of this transition have been minimized, medicalized, or left out of the conversation entirely. Pleasure, in particular, is rarely mentioned at all.

This 2-hour live educational and experiential webinar brings it back to the center. We'll look at what's actually happening in the body during perimenopause and menopause: hormonally, energetically, culturally, and reclaim pleasure not as an afterthought, but as a birthright in this new skin.

What We'll Explore

Hormones in transition. The biology of perimenopause and menopause, with a focus on sexual hormones: what shifts, why it matters, and how it shapes desire, sensation, and connection to the body.

Decolonizing the body. Unpacking body image and the societal conditioning that shapes how midlife women relate to their bodies, and reclaiming a different story.

Nervous system, pleasure & microdosing. How the nervous system holds the key to pleasure at this life stage, and an introduction to the science of microdosing and the connection to menopause.

Resources to nourish the body and the vulva. Practical support including foods, supplements, and herbs to nourish the body, plus vulva-specific care: moisturizers, suppositories, and yoni steaming.

Rediscover your pleasure in this new skin. A guided somatic practice to help you reconnect with sensation, aliveness, and pleasure as your body changes, through three embodied practices:

  • Vulva breath
  • Pelvic floor release
  • Throat release

Case Study & Closing

We'll ground the theory in a real case study, then close in a sharing circle, a space to reflect, connect, and be witnessed by the group. For those who want to go deeper, there'll be an invitation to a 1:1 Amawa Initiation Container.
