Your guide
A busy woman who learned the power of the pause.
Janine is a trained natural menopause practitioner and coach, with qualifications in meditation, hypnosis, and reiki. She built Manipura Empowered Pause for women in their 40s and 50s who are overwhelmed, juggling responsibilities, and rarely make time for themselves — because stillness isn't a luxury, it's a survival skill.

Why Manipura
The fire at your centre.
Manipura — the solar plexus chakra — means "lustrous gem." It is the seat of personal power, will, and transformation. Located in the upper abdomen, 2–3 inches above the navel, it governs the fire element: the heat that digests not only food, but experience, ambition, and change.
Menopause — and the years of perimenopause that precede it — is a fire. It reshapes hormones, sleep, identity, and momentum. Many women feel that fire as loss of control — hot flushes, restless nights, a sense that the body has turned against its own agenda. You do not need to wait for the symptoms to overwhelm you.
Manipura Empowered Pause reclaims that fire. Through cooling breath, grounded meditation, and the radical act of stillness, you learn to tend the flame rather than be consumed by it. The heat becomes clarity. The pause becomes power.
