Listen "Ep 36 A Mind-Body Approach to Menopause and a Comeback from Back Pain with Shaheen Jaffary"
Episode Synopsis
Welcome back, dear listeners. In this episode, I’m excited to share with you a conversation I had with my colleague Shaheen Jaffary.
Shaheen helps midlife women to be free from neuroplastic
chronic pain or other stress-induced, persistent conditions in her capacity as a SIRPA Trained mind body coach and award-winning Holistic Therapist. She supports clients via her online coaching programs as well as through reflexology and other holistic treatments at her treatment center in the city of Leeds, in the UK. She pairs reflexology with mind body coaching for women suffering from an array of symptoms including anxiety, chronic pain, chronic insomnia, and perimenopause.
Like me, Shaheen came into this work through her own pain
experience, and in our conversation, she shared the story of her recovery from persistent, long-term back pain. We also spoke about a topic that’s certainly on my mind at this stage of my life, which is menopause and perimenopause. This natural, biological life phase has been considered taboo for way too long, and I was eager to hear Shaheen’s take on how a mind-body approach can be applied to navigating these changes. Whether or not you have a uterus, I think this conversation will be relevant to anyone who feels frustrated by black-and-white thinking when it comes to acknowledging the biological aspects as well as the psychological and emotional aspects of physical symptoms. I hope you enjoy our chat as much as I did!
