Remembering we are ‘fearfully and wonderfully made’

In our new column on the menopause, Bukky Ayoade looks at how prayer and meditation can help women tackle symptoms

Women’s bodies go through various transformative phases in life, each presenting unique challenges and experiences. We are truly “fearfully and wonderfully made” (Psalm 139:14). Among these phases, menopause stands out as a significant period as we approach midlife. Unfortunately, many women may not be fully aware of what to expect or how to prepare for this transition, especially when they are balancing careers, businesses and personal lives. Here, I explore the menopause with a focus on the role of prayer and meditation for Christian women to help manage their health and wellbeing at midlife.
