Join the Midlife Mystery Circle

A free live conversation about changing bodies, shifting desires, hormones, relationships, how much cottage cheese we're adding to things, and what we want now.

The cultural narrative about female midlife is that it is a problem. That our bodies are failing us.


Our hormones change. Our bodies change. Our sleep, our energy, our weight, our moods, our desires, our relationships, and our tolerance for bullshit may all begin to shift.


And most of the conversation is about how to fix it. How to prevent the “inevitable decline.” How to manage the symptoms, keep looking young, get our old bodies back, and hold on to the women we used to be.


That narrative does not work for me.


No, midlife is not necessarily easy. But yet another conversation about how the female body is failing us is not the conversation I want to have. I am over that slant.


I want to have a different conversation, one about the intelligence of these changing bodies. About why this time is essential. About the possibility that women coming into our strength at midlife may be exactly what the collective needs.


I want to talk about this phase as transformational. Alchemical. A time when so much of who we have been begins to change form.


What if midlife is not simply something to get through?

What if it is its own season, with its own intelligence, power, absurdity, pleasure, grief, and mystery?


What if these changes are not signs of decline, but an invitation to know ourselves more deeply? To become more intimate with these shifting bodies, and more honest about who we are now?

Let's talk about all of it...

The profound and the completely ordinary.

Hormones. Desire. Sleep. Strength. Protein. Friendships. Sex. Supplements. Changing bodies. Relationships. Peptides. Pleasure. Rage.


The lives we lovingly built that may no longer fit us in quite the same way.

And yes, how much protein do we actually need?


I am not hosting this circle as an expert who has figured out midlife and is ready to tell you how to do it correctly.

I am hosting it as a woman inside this phase myself. I am 47, I have been living in this Autumn phase for about seven years, and it has been working me. (Holy Moly)


It has seen me through divorce, a changing body, evolving friendships, changing desires, and a growing awareness that my life force is too precious to spend on people and experiences that cannot meet me.


Maybe my thighs are more jiggly than they once were, and yes, that is kind of a bummer. But I also feel a stronger sense of my own agency and value, one that jiggly thighs no longer invalidate.


And that is pretty cool.


I will share what I know from more than twenty years of working with women, from Chinese Medicine, from the astrology of midlife, and from my own experience.


But I will not be offering a universal protocol or telling you what you should do. Every woman meets midlife differently.

This circle is a place for honest conversation, curiosity, better questions, and the chance to hear our own answers more clearly.


During this free live circle, we’ll explore:

  • Why midlife deserves to be understood as its own phase of life

  • What our changing bodies and shifting hormones may be asking of us

  • The traditional Feminine archetypes of Maiden, Mother, and Crone, and what happened to the Autumn phase

  • Discernment and the conservation of our Yin energy (estrogen)

  • The shift from cycling with the moon to cycling with the sun, and how that impacts our Yang energy (testosterone)

  • Desire, pleasure, passion, and becoming the subject of our own desire

  • What happens when the lives we built no longer meet us in quite the same way

  • How we begin to choose what is right for us now

  • And, yes, of course, how much cottage cheese are we adding to everything now?


You do not need to have any of this figured out.

You do not need to know whether you want hormone therapy.

You do not need to love every change in your body.

You do not need to know what comes next.

You only need to be willing to become curious about the woman you are now and the woman you are becoming.

I’m Ariele Myers, L.Ac., founder of Wisdom of the Womb.


For more than twenty years, I have worked with women around fertility, menstrual health, pregnancy, hormones, embodiment, and the wisdom of the body.


For much of my career, I taught women how to reconnect with Yin: mystery, receptivity, surrender, gestation, and the deep intelligence of the womb.


As I entered midlife myself, I began to feel another energy emerging.

More fire. More direction. More clarity about what I wanted and what I would no longer tolerate.


It felt like Yang energy, not as an aspect of my inner masculine, but as an essential part of my Feminine power.


Working with it felt a lot like taking my fuck back.

And I believe midlife is when many women begin to take our fuck back. Our voice. Our desire. Our authority. Our right to choose where our energy goes.


I am excited about that.


I do not believe midlife is about having all the answers.

I think it is about becoming willing to live deeply inside the questions.

And I would love to explore them with you.
