Let's Talk. Candidly, Ladies,  About Peri Menopause, Menopause & the Transition Years

Why endure the change when you can THRIVE through it?

We simply do not talk about the perimenopause transition enough! It’s time to change that. This one-day workshop has been created for women who are curious about or struggling with some of the hormone and nervous system changes associated with perimenopause.  Too many women are unsure of what to expect, how to navigate the changes they are experiencing, what a “typical” change is, when to seek further support and how to take care of themselves differently in order to take back control of this time of life. 

This one-day workshop will be led by Jody Snider, a licensed Naturopathic doctor with valuable experience and expertise in treating and supporting individuals from all stages of life.  The day will take place at Vicki Tree Wellness, a unique space deep in the forest, allowing for an environment of support and connection with women sharing similar experiences. Come ready with questions, an open heart to listen to others and willingness to share! 

This day includes three sessions (1.5 hr blocks) with Dr. Jody Snider, hike, healthy lunch and gentle happy hips release yoga.
