When imbalances arise in a woman's body, it's not a sign that the body is malfunctioning—it's simply communicating. This presentation explores how the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda can be combined with modern Western medicine to guide women back to their natural equilibrium. We will look at how traditional principles can gently support the female body through major life transitions like menopause, perimenopause, and the journey of fertility. The discussion will highlight the deep connection between the nervous system, stress regulation, and cyclical well-being, addressing the areas where conventional care often leaves women looking for a more personal, root-cause approach. Participants will be guided through a compassionate framework designed to translate these holistic concepts into practical and gentle self-care routines. **Practicalities:** The event will take place at Kube Coworking, upstairs in the Open Hall. We will begin promptly at 6.30pm so please ensure that you are seated before then so as not to disrupt the energy of the event. You can buy refreshments at the adjoining cafe before the event. There is no charge for attendance but we recommend a voluntary donation of at least €5 (cash only) for those who are willing and able to contribute to help cover the use of the venue, support for the presenters, as well as administrative costs.
