#76 A Spiritual Journey; Elaine Le Feuvre and Ways of Meeting the Menopause

This week I take a deep dive into the wild adventure that is menopause with my guest Elaine Le Feuvre.Elaine is a passionate advocate for the Red School, which teaches women to work with their menstrual cycles, and for the Wisewoman’s Journey through menopause, seeing it as a deeply spiritual rite of passage.Known across the Channel Islands for her work as an aromatherapist, Elaine has led a rich and varied life. She has lived in South Africa and the UK, returning to Guernsey in her 30s where she worked in the prison service before coming back to her roots as a holistic therapist. Her practice now weaves together aromatherapy, reiki, and her work as a qualified cacao facilitator.Her work is inseparable from her own healing journey. After experiencing severe menstrual symptoms since her teenage years, she had a defining moment when she discovered she was living with Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD), a cyclical, hormone-based mood disorder. From that point, she committed to understanding her body more deeply, exploring both holistic and hormonal approaches, and grounding herself in spiritual practice to navigate the physical and emotional intensity of PMDD.Elaine is deeply committed to encouraging women to share their hormonal journeys and reclaim their stories.In this episode, we also explore Wise Power: Discover the Liberating Power of Menopause to Awaken Authority, Purpose and Belonging by Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer and Alexandra Pope.The music and artwork is by @moxmoxmoxiemoxNonsense in the Chaos is available on all podcast platforms or you can listen to it here… https://nonsenseinthechaos.buzzsprout.com I'd love to know what you think!
