Moon Pause

"In a culture that rushes women past their own thresholds, Moon Pause slows everything down to the pace of the moon herself. To open this book is to step into the moonlight with a wise and tender guide. Shelagh Lenon takes you by the hand and leads you somewhere you didn't know you were homesick for - back to the rhythms of your own body, the wisdom of your own depths. Along the way, she invites you to anoint, soothe, and nourish from the inside out. This luminous little field guide will lead you out into the dark so you can find rest, pleasure, and your way back to yourself."

-Brooke Hofsess PhD, Midlife Midwife & host of The Midlife Ripening Podcast

"Moon Pause is an invitation to rekindle our relationship with ourselves, our own rhythms and inner world, as we follow the glimmers the moon offers when we learn to listen. In discovering the wisdom of the moon through Shelagh's beautiful words, reflection prompts, poems and rituals, we find our way home to our own. Moon Pause is a book to savour, to read slowly, to return to, to pick up any time we seek gentleness, slowness or a soft tethering. A gentle guide to nourishing ourselves as we navigate the tender terrain of midlife. A book that embraces you with the loving care of a lifelong friendship."

-Isabelle Griffith, Founder The School of Somatic Leadership for Women

"Moon Pause is a beautiful illustrated field guide for midlife women that will inspire you to deepen your relationship with the moon. Both poetic and practical - with loving prompts and practices - it's a divine companion for all midlife women looking to live a more enchanted and embodied life."

-Julie Parker, Founder Beautiful You Coaching Academy & the Priestess Podcast

"As a work of art, Shelagh Lenon's Moon Pause gently draws the reader into a richly sensory experience of beauty, healing, and inspiration. At a deeper level, it is both a sacred invitation and a practical guide to embody the wisdom of nature's creative cycle and reclaim our feminine power. Not simply a book to be read and set aside, Moon Pause is an immersive experience-a carefully crafted journey designed to support your next season of growth and expansion. It will become a treasured companion for any woman stepping into greater authenticity and wholeness, especially at mid-life and beyond."
