The unconscious bias that women face in the workplace can be related to menopausal health issues. Helen Morris explores these challenges and how they can be addressed with mindfulness techniques. Equality, Discrimination and Inclusion policies include pregnancy, but the menopause remains a taboo area, unsupported by policies or understanding. Even women themselves, who are experiencing symptoms, do not recognise them as menopause and struggle to rationalise them. This book considers the attitudes of mindfulness and how they can be used to support the individual and their managers.
