A fresh perspective on menopause with Ayurveda practitioner Erandati Benjamin from Inner Soma

We are excited to share with you this conversation on an important subject for many women in our community – the rite of passage known in our modern world as menopause. We are joined by Ayurveda practitioner and Vedic wisdom holder Erandati Benjamin from Inner Soma. Erandati has a diploma in Ayurveda from the Australasian Institute of Ayurvedic Studies (AIAS) and a Masters in Ayurveda and Integrative Medicine from Maharishi International University (MIU) in Iowa, USA. Her focus with patients is on health rather than disease and passing on knowledge and tools so each person can take responsibility for their own health. She teaches that through simple but profound changes to diet, lifestyle, behaviour, and exposure to the environment we can realign ourselves with our true nature and begin to address imbalances from the very foundation of our being. What we talk about. The Ayurvedic view of menopause as a natural transition in a woman's life. The 4 x stages of life known as ashramas in the Vedic philosophy. Menopause as an opportunity for inner growth and evolution, rather than a pathological condition to be ‘fixed’. Menopausal symptoms as the result of accumulated stress. Ayurvedic daily practices that can support women during the menopausal transition. The importance of abhyanga (self-oil massage), dinacharya (daily rhythms), and exposure to sunlight. Menopause as an exciting new phase of life, rather than something to be feared. Menopause as a transition for women to tap into deeper wisdom, self-knowledge, and spiritual evolution. Connect.
