What Wise Women Know About Menopause

Menopause is both a profound hormonal transformation and a deep psychological transition. While most people understand the physical changes, the psychological shifts are far less recognized - yet they can cause unnecessary discomfort and mean that menopause's liberating potential is lost.

This lecture explores the four physical phases of menopause, the five psychological phases, and the key pathways to a smooth transition and a balanced female body in your 40s and 50s. It presents new insights into this major life stage as an alternative to mainstream media portrayals, sharing the latest knowledge about the body, hormones, and the brain at midlife.

The speaker is Laila Tórsheim, a psychologist with a degree in psychology, yoga teacher with over 20 years of experience, and specialist in yoga for women. She works as a course and training director and lecturer focusing on women's cycles, health, menopause, and the body, and is the author of "Your Secret Weapon - A Guide to Your Female Cycle" (2018).

The lecture is organized by FOF Aarhus in collaboration with FOF and takes place in Lille Sal at Hovedbiblioteket.
