#144: Yoga in menopause what helps and what to avoid
Update: 2025-11-11
Description
Your body changes in midlife and that means how you approach yoga needs to change too.
In this episode, I talk with yoga therapist Cheryl Gordon about how to keep getting all the benefits of yoga in menopause without over-stretching, overheating, or causing unnecessary strain on your joints and connective tissues.
You’ll learn:
- Why hormonal changes in midlife mean your yoga practice should evolve too
- What to keep in mind to avoid overstretching and joint pain
- Why hot yoga may do more harm than good
- How to shift toward styles that support strength, mobility, and hormone balance
- What “real yoga therapy” looks like and why it can help you stay strong, calm, and functional for decades ahead
Enjoy the show!
