In todays episode Jody speaks with Tahnee Taylor. Tahnee is a Taoist energetic teacher, yin yoga teacher, mother to 3 beautiful babes and owner of Superfeast with her husband Mason.
Jody and Tahnee talk about traditional approaches to menopause and how menopause is considered to be the autumn of a woman’s life in Chinese medicine.
Tahnee explains the principles of Wu Wei the Taoist concept of non-doing and meeting things as they are instead of where you would like them to be.
We discuss how menopause is a time where a woman is required to let go of preconceived ideas about how her life and body should look and surrender to the yin phase of deep mystery.
There is so much gold in this episode we cover a lot of ground and question many of the current recommendations around what women should be doing in this stage of life.
