Part of the Women's Wisdom Series, this book posits that shifts in the mind, body, and spiritual energy can be as much of an opportunity as a challenge. Erasing the stigma that is often attached to this transitional period, experiences of the Dark Goddess are explored and embraced. An exhaustive list of helpful strategies are highlighted, including nutrition and herbs, meditations and imagery, flower essences, vibrational healing through quartz crystals, reflexology, and more. Celebrating a reconnection with natural life cycles, thought-provoking suggestions are explored for envisioning this profound change as a rite of passage, and not something to fear.

Research indicates that 6,000 women in the States reach the menopause every day! This does not include the even larger number of women who enter the perimenopause every day, the long and sometimes challenging phase, which leads to the actual menopause. For some women the perimenopause begins in their 30s when their hormones start to change.
