Rocking the Menopause ~ When Vitality and High Libido are the Norm

Apr 05, 2022

There’s a famous Taoist quote “when the student is ready, the teacher appears”. Martina feels that’s how it was for her. 

She started learning the Taoist practice with me about 4 years ago after stumbling across one of my Qigong and Taoist meditation classes in her local yoga studio. 

She had no clue about Taoism and when the meditation turned into smiling at her liver and spleen, she had one eye half-open wondering - is this a joke?!

Martina kept coming back to the classes though - she noticed that she wasn’t as reactive emotionally with her family and had a lot more energy. She was developing a deeper relationship with her body and was less likely to have a heap of vodkas on a night out as she didn’t want to hurt her liver. 

Martina really connected with the Taoist concept of preventative medicine instead of the reactive Western approach. It made a lot of sense to her. She was coming towards menopause and decided to learn the Feminine Sexual Alchemy practices to get ahead of the game. 

After doing the FSA programme, Martina said her vitality and libido were reignited. It was the reset she needed after a really difficult year. 

Martina is 51 now and has been sailing through perimenopause and menopause. Every time she meets a woman her own age, the conversation immediately turns to menopause. Her friends are going through a horrible time with anxiety and prolapse, and sexual issues. They can’t wait to get on HRT which they think is the silver bullet. 

Martina thinks there’s other options - for her it's been the Taoist way. 

She’s had no symptoms of perimenopause or menopause. 

Her mood is really good. She sleeps well at night and has lots of energy and focus for her busy job as a classroom teacher. Martina has a notable confidence in her vitality and doesn’t envisage any long term health issues in the future. 

She describes it as night and day, the difference the FSA practices made to her libido. It was like the pilot light of the boiler was gone out and the Feminine Sexual Alchemy practices ignited her libido - she feels so much juicer and more lubricated now. 

After she learned the Jade Egg practice (which you’ll learn in Module 5 of the programme) her orgasms were more intense and more frequent. Her husband noticed a difference in bed straight away and she jokes that there’s actually two beneficiaries to her investment!! ;) 

 Some other changes Martina noticed:

She used to always have benign lumps in her breasts, a doctor had said there was excess tissue there. Since she learned Breast Massage (Module 5) - these lumps have gone and there’s been none since. She’s got a more positive, loving relationship with her breasts now, which in the past she didn’t really like as she thought they were too big. 

She also noticed that in general she’s more decisive and confident in herself. It’s enhanced her whole life, including her relationships with others. 

People comment that she doesn’t have wrinkles and about how much energy she has. Martina embraced her grey hair in the past year and says that she looks and feels better than she ever did when she was 30 or 40. 

For her, the beauty of the Taoist practice is that it’s so simple, so effective and it doesn’t take long to do. 

“Why wouldn’t you do it?” she says. 

Menopause doesn't have to be a struggle. In fact in the Taoist tradition it’s called the Second Spring - a real time of liberation for women.
