Welcome to MiniPause

A sanctuary of connection, mindfulness, and
meditation designed for women in midlife.

At MiniPause, we believe every woman deserves the time and space to pause, reconnect with herself and prioritise her wellbeing.

Midlife can be a time of change. Between personal responsibilities, professional demands and shifts in our physical and emotional wellbeing, it’s easy to lose sight of our own needs.

Whether you’re navigating perimenopause or menopause, moving through a new chapter of life, or simply feeling the need to slow down and reconnect, MiniPause offers a nurturing space to explore what wellbeing means to you.

Through mindfulness, meditation, restorative retreats and meaningful connection, we encourage women to step away from everyday pressures and make more time for themselves.

Our approach is gentle, compassionate and centred on the individual. We recognise that every woman’s experience is different, and there is no single path through midlife.

At MiniPause, we want women to feel supported, understood and encouraged to move forward with greater self-compassion, confidence and connection to themselves.

Testimonials

I was actually in a pretty good space when I arrived but felt amazing when I left – empowered and inspired. The MiniPause retreat is a beautiful day to recharge your batteries and turn the focus back on yourself.

What struck me most was discovering how many other women are feeling exactly the same way. The meditation session left me feeling incredibly relaxed, and I realised the importance of taking time out for myself – it benefits not just me but everyone around me.

Aldinga is the perfect place for this retreat. The house setup worked wonderfully with different areas for each part of the session, and being within walking distance to the most amazing beach is the icing on the cake.

I would absolutely recommend MiniPause to any woman. It gives you practical tools to make a real difference to your wellbeing. A big congratulations to Marketa for all her hard work to make a difference to women who are struggling with perimenopause

After the MiniPause retreat, I learnt to be kinder to myself and that taking time for me is important to recharge. I definitely felt more calm and relaxed after the day.

The meditation practice was particularly valuable – I had never really done meditation before, and I’ll be using that as a tool to feel calmer when overwhelmed. It was also incredibly powerful to connect with others and feel understood and validated.

The venue felt like a lovely holiday break from busy home life. I would recommend MiniPause to any woman wanting to understand menopause and connect with other like-minded women.

Attending the MiniPause retreat was a truly uplifting experience. I arrived feeling overwhelmed and weighed down, but left with a much lighter spirit and a deeply relaxed body. Just taking time out for myself—without guilt—was a big step, and it made all the difference.

The beautiful beachside setting, the welcoming atmosphere, and the chance to connect with other women going through similar experiences made me feel supported and understood. It was comforting to know I’m not alone in how I’ve been feeling.

The conversations, the nourishing food, and the peaceful environment were all wonderful, and I’d love to see the retreat extended to a full day so we can dive even deeper.

Thank you, Marketa, for creating such a thoughtful and healing space. You’re doing an amazing job!”
