Mindful Makers: Art for Women Navigating Perimenopause and Menopause

The perimenopause and menopause can bring both challenges and an opportunity for personal growth. It is more than just a physical transition - it touches every part of life. From emotional ups and downs, anxiety, and fatigue, to brain fog and changes in how you feel about yourself, this time of life can be overwhelming and isolating.

In this 6-week art course for women going through perimenopause and menopause, Artist and Art Facilitator Jennifer Raingold, invites you into a gentle space which focuses on creating art for wellness. Jennifer aims to create a supportive environment where you can discover art as a tool for wellbeing and self-expression. Rather than a traditional art class which prioritises technical ability and the end product, Mindful Makers encourages focus on the process of making art, slowing down, and engaging the senses. Through guided exploration you will:

  • Centre the mind with grounding and mindful exercises
  • Soothe the nervous system with process-based art activities that promote calm and nurture creativity
  • Enhance concentration and focus as art engages and supports cognitive function
  • Rediscover your creativity in a safe, supportive group of women who understand
  • Learn a new process-art method every week including: mindful drawing; slow-stitching; weaving; making marks with natural materials, and more.

No experience of art-making is necessary; just bring curiosity and a willingness to try something new.

Jennifer Raingold has a background in art and mental health and a passion for supporting wellbeing through creative expression. She has worked in the NHS, charity and museum sectors with individuals facing mental health challenges and chronic health conditions.

Wow! 4 years ago today... Moon hadn't opened yet, there was still a lot to be done and I had to take a breather and a sit down... What a lot has happened in this time (including discovering barefoot shoes 😉), yet the years have flown... Let's see what the next four years bring 😊

Join us this Monday (21st July) for our low cost acupuncture clinic at Moon Women's Health. We’re over halfway through 2025, and our feet are firmly planted in Summer. In Chinese Medicine, Summer belongs to the Fire element - linked to warmth, joy, connection, and the outward-moving energy of Yang. It’s a time of momentum, movement, and brightness. Bustling social calendars, busy work schedules, and that hazy, sticky heat after a sudden downpour. Acupuncturists love this season for its vibrant, outward energy - but we also know that all this activity can leave us feeling scattered, overstretched, or out of sync. And if you’ve found yourself taking a few steps back with your wellbeing recently - know that it’s OK. The path to long-term wellbeing isn’t always straight. So this Summer, ask yourself: ☀️ What do I need to feel calmer or more connected? ☀️ Am I supporting my nervous system and hormonal health, or running on empty? ☀️ Do I need to come back to the basics - like sleep, food, and breath? Here at the Acupuncture Collective, Sophie and Dr Sunila can help you recalibrate. Acupuncture supports your body’s rhythms, helps re-anchor your energy, and gives you space to pause and reconnect with what matters most. Whether that’s managing stress, giving your hormones a helping hand, or laying the groundwork for the busy summer holidays - the Acupuncture Collective is here to support you. Our next Acupuncture Collective is taking place between 2pm to 8pm on Monday 21st July - Find more details and book via the link in our bio.
