Join us as we welcome back the insightful Jane Catherine Severn, a seasoned psychotherapist and menstruality educator from Aotearoa, New Zealand, who brings over forty years of wisdom to our discussion. Ever wondered how menopause could be a turbo thrust for self-development? Jane Catherine unravels this intriguing concept, shedding light on how menopause integrates the four aspects of feminine nature experienced individually during the menstrual cycle. This episode promises to illuminate how this phase transitions women from a cyclical existence to one where all elements of the self are harmoniously present, enhancing emotional depth and self-capacity.Together, we reflect on menopause as an empowering phase where previously suppressed aspects of oneself, like anger or passion, are brought into the light. Jane Catherine introduces the concept of the "shadow self" and how embracing these parts can lead to liberation, enabling women to truly live on their own terms. The importance of communal support is highlighted, drawing a parallel to having a village during childbirth, as we navigate this pivotal shift away from masculine norms towards celebrating mature feminine energy. With an emphasis on trusting the body’s innate wisdom, this stage is framed as an opportunity for profound personal growth and connection with the wider cosmos.As the journey continues, we explore perimenopause, delving into common symptoms and their ingenious role in guiding women to tap into intuitive and spiritual faculties. Jane Catherine underscores the importance of embracing these changes, offering insights and exercises to help women connect with their feminine essence. With valuable input from her new book, she encourages women to trust and surrender to the transformative energies within, aligning with universal forces that support growth.
