Sophie Fletcher on hypnosis and why it can help us have a more Mindful Menopause

In this episode I chat to Sophie Fletcher, hypnotherapist and author of Mindful Menopause, on how we can use the techniques and exercises in her new book to prepare and empower ourselves for a calmer, happier perimenopause experience. We also talk about 'pathologisation' of menopause, intuitive eating, shame, body image, and thanking our bodies for all they have done for us!  You can find Sophie online at https://mindfulmenopause.co.uk/    Don't forget to follow us over on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/middlingalong_podcast/ or find out more/listen to past episodes/subscribe to the newsletter at https://middlingalong.com   It would mean so much if you’d subscribe, rate, and review us on Apple Podcasts to share the love!

Om Podcasten

Hi, I’m Emma Thomas and I started the Middling Along podcast in early 2021. Often, we find as women hitting a ‘certain point’ in life, that we are so used to people-pleasing, and making sure that everyone else is OK, and their needs are met, that we have lost touch with what we want, what we need, who we are… I started Middling Along with the aim of reclaiming my own ‘midlife’ and finding my happy. Along the way we’ve covered stories of people starting new businesses, changing careers, and taking up new hobbies that have changed their lives forever. We also cover topics such as perimenopause, menopause, and positive aging. Join us for a dose of inspiration - and make sure you spend your ’messy middle’ years thriving too!
