The menopause is a time of profound transformation in a woman’s life, accompanied by many physical and emotional changes. In this particular context, the practice of mandala emerges as a precious tool, offering a space of peace and balance at the heart of this transition. 

This gentle, creative practice provides daily support that is particularly well-suited to the specific needs of this period.

The benefits of mandala for women in the perimenopause and menopause are numerous and particularly targeted. When faced with hot flushes, this practice induces a state of deep calm that helps to regulate body temperature.
Women who practise regularly report a significant reduction in the frequency and intensity of these uncomfortable episodes, helping to significantly improve their daily quality of life.

On an emotional level, the mandala acts as a real stabiliser. The mood swings so characteristic of this period find a natural balance in this practice. Irritability gradually diminishes, giving way to a growing sense of inner peace. This creative activity also boosts self-confidence, which is particularly valuable during this period of change.

Sleep, which is often disturbed during the menopause, also benefits from the soothing effects of the mandala. An evening session makes it easier to fall asleep, while regular practice helps to reduce night-time awakenings and improve the quality of deep sleep. This improvement in night-time rest has positive repercussions throughout the day.

To get the most out of this practice, it’s important to adapt it to your own pace and needs. In the morning, a short session helps you to start the day calmly and serenely. At the end of the afternoon, it allows you to unwind and make a smooth transition to the evening. Before bedtime, it naturally prepares you for a good night’s sleep.

The environment plays an essential role in the quality of practice. It is advisable to create a dedicated space, calm and bright, where you feel perfectly at ease.
The choice of materials also contributes to the pleasure of practising: carefully selected mandalas, quality pencils or felt pens and a comfortable support all help to make this moment a real break for well-being. The practice itself takes place naturally, without rushing.
It begins with a few deep breaths to help you refocus and leave your everyday concerns behind. The mandala is then observed intuitively, the idea being to let the colours and shapes speak to us.

Scientific studies confirm the many benefits of this practice. A significant reduction in stress is systematically observed, along with a marked improvement in sleep quality. Anxiety symptoms gradually diminish, while emotional regulation is naturally reinforced. Self-esteem, sometimes undermined during this period, is also strengthened.

The mandala thus becomes much more than a simple creative activity: it represents a genuine moment of connection with oneself, a space of gentleness and attention at the heart of the upheavals of the menopause.
This regular practice helps you to get through this period of transition with greater serenity and confidence, transforming what can be experienced as a trial into an opportunity for personal growth and fulfilment. Taking this time for yourself is not a luxury, but a necessity.
It’s a precious investment in your physical and emotional well-being, the benefits of which are felt well beyond the time you spend practising, radiating positively into every aspect of your daily life.
