MOONPAUSE Membership: a sisterhood community to support your passage to power, Tanishka The Moon Woman

We spend 1/3 of our lives in menopause

Introducing


MOONPAUSE MOON LODGE 
Membership 

A monthly circle for women navigating midlife and menopause, facilitated by Tanishka, 
The Moon Woman, a group facilitator who has led women's circles, rites of passage ceremonies and retreats to support women through all their life transitions for 30 years.

Tanishka shares how the right psychological and emotional support reduces some of the common symptoms women struggle most with in the midlife and menopause transition.

The most important thing we can do is to know each other by sharing our stories.

Hi, I'm Tanishka

Change is the only constant, and yet we fear it.

I've spent the past 30 years helping people navigate change, as this is when we're most vulnerable. I do this via group sessions, retreats, coaching & online resources. 

I spent 12 years in perimenopause, and I'm in my 3rd year in menopause. I'll be 56 in November. In my early 40s, I outgrew my life. I knew my life needed to look different, but I didn't know how or where to start. 

I experienced intense perimenopause symptoms and struggled to get answers or relief. What kept me sane was my monthly sharing circle with my soul sisters in the same transition.

Having spent the past 2 years researching natural, evidence-based remedies for my next book, MOONPAUSE, I'm passionate about providing the support women deserve in this transition.

I'd love to support your transformation. 

Tanishka, The Moon Woman

I've held circles for women for 30 years.

Women's circles and rites-of-passage ceremonies/retreats to support women through their life transitions. 


Midlife/menopause is the one our culture prepares us for the least.

But it's the most challenging!

That's why I built MOONPAUSE MOON LODGE Membership.

Most women move through menopause alone...

Not because they want to, but because our culture gives us almost nowhere to process what's actually happening: physically, emotionally, hormonally, spiritually. 


We're told to manage symptoms. We're not told how to embrace this transition as a passage to power.

The personal cost of that isolation is scientifically evidenced...

  • A 2026 study linked social isolation in menopausal women directly to cognitive decline.
  • Another study of women in the same age group found that support from family and friends was one of the top strategies women identified as helpful.
  • A 2025 study on perimenopause concluded that women aged 40-65 should have facilitated social connection built into their support to reduce isolation.

We deserve psychological and emotional support to process the immense changes we experience in this life transition.

Unlike social gatherings, where people compete for attention, a facilitated sharing circle is held with intention and clear guidelines. 


This creates a container where you can acknowledge and explore what you're feeling, without judgment. 

This is key to regulating your nervous system, psyche and emotions.

Why this exists

You're Not Alone... 

Midlife and Menopause takes a village, like anything that's challenging in life. 

A structured study comparing 10 sessions of a menopause support group against women who didn't attend them found that the support group experienced better quality of life, fewer and milder hot flashes and night sweats, stronger psychosocial functioning, better physical health, and even improved sexual health.

I've witnessed this transformation firsthand... 


When women have a consistent, held space to speak and be witnessed, they move through this passage differently, with more clarity, resilience and self-assurance.

The moon lodge is where women for millennia gathered to process change.

This is where we help each other to accept change and birth a new and more empowered perspective of ourselves, claiming our mantle of power as matriarchs.

That's what I've built MOONPAUSE Membership - to hold you every month.

From women in Tanishka's circles
  • I am so grateful for the rich experience, incredible support and connection with the women in our online Red Tent Circles this last year. It was beyond my expectations. I highly recommend.

    Angela Marshall

  • Attending Red Tent circles every month has been the greatest gift that I have ever given to myself and also the greatest gift that I have ever received from other women. I have NEVER felt this safe in my life. To be held and witnessed by other women who are not only showing up for themselves, but for each other, is truly magical. Of all the healing modalities I have used, this has been the most powerful.

    Norma Philippe

  • I am so grateful. It truly has been a Godsend for these difficult and challenging times. I was in need of structure and support and I found this in your Red Tent, Inner Goddess and 13 Moons circles on my path to reconnect with my feminine energy, take back my power, and honor and care for myself.

Questions

Before you join

How does the monthly circle work?

Our monthly group calls are conducted on Zoom. We start with a somatic scan to notice what is present, what the body is holding. The guidelines are shared, followed by a short guided meditation and setting of intent. 


Then we open it up for sharing with questions that prompt self-enquiry in alignment with the theme of each new moon. Sharing is optional, as are invitations to receive personalised facilitation to go deeper or receive intuitive insights from Tanishka at the end of your share. 

We close with a short guided meditation to close the circle and a final somatic scan to notice the shifts that have occurred.

What if I need to cancel?

Membership is structured as pay-as-you-go, making it easy to budget and cancel at any time. No payments will be deducted once you notify us in writing of your decision to cancel your membership.

What if I'm in a different time zone?

Circles run in two time zones each month, so you can choose one to fit your schedule.

Do I need any experience with circles or facilitated work?

No prior experience is necessary.

How is this different from other circles?

Every circle is unique, with magical synchronicities that provide timely insights when you need them most. If you're unsure about trying something new, midlife is the perfect time for that! 


This practice is designed specifically to integrate all the parts of your psyche into a cohesive and balanced whole. This is done through inviting the parts of you that need to be heard, seen and witnessed. 

A safe space is ensured with specific guidelines and techniques that create a positive vortex, so you leave uplifted, feeling better than when you arrived. 

If you facilitate circles, this is a great opportunity to get the support you give to others from a highly experienced group facilitator.

Our life transitions are when we're most vulnerable.

You don't have to do this transition alone.
