Who: Those moving through Perimenopause or Menopause​​​​​
Join in this special small group experience facilitated by fellow passenger on the Perimenopause Journey- Dr. Rhea Komarek, D.C., RSME/T.
Over six weekly small group sessions, you'll explore movement, drawing, and creative writing as tools for self-discovery in the company of others traveling a similar phase of change. If you are brand new to these modalities- you will not be alone! Most participants arrive with little to zero experience in somatic movement & expressive arts.
You'll map out what you're currently experiencing at this transitional phase in life, while also identifying what you feel you need.
​
You'll do this through the lens of Polyvagal Theory, identifying how you feel, think and act when in your three primary nervous system states: regulated, fight/flight, and collapse. These are present in everyone, however, during the hormonal roller coaster time of perimenopause and menopause these shifts can become even more heightened. It's a great time to befriend these parts of the self!
​
Each state creates its own sensations, emotions, and feelings about your life. I will guide you to develop these into characters that get into dialogue together around your current life circumstances. This becomes a way to work with some challenging life material while gaining the ability to listen to yourself in a very holistic way. New perspectives can open up as all parts of the self are heard.
​
For example, let's say you are moving through a career transition and health issues while navigating perimenopause.
Example of Characters You May Meet:
​
Serendipity (Regulated)
Miss Fixalot (Fight/Flight)
Cave Woman (Collapse)​
By listening to these parts, you can find a holistic answer to the core questions:
Where am I?
and
What do I need?​
​
Awaken Creativity
​
Land in a Supportive Space with Others who Get It
​
Connect to What is Important to You Now
