    5.0 out of 5 stars THE TRUTH ABOUT MENOPAUSE..., January 18, 2002
    This review is from: TCM: A Woman's Guide to a Trouble-Free Menopause (Paperback)
    This little treasure explains how our bodies create and use energy every day of our lives. Our energy--or CHI--remains high, even in menopause, when our organs and body's energy flow are healthy.

    Nan Lu's book has a simple yet profound message: Embrace the unique and magnificent transition of menopause and take time to learn how to care for yourself....through a renewed spirit, chinese herbs, diet and a series of tai chi exercises. By doing so, you'll reawaken the self-healing gift you were born with.

    Start today, you deserve it.

    5.0 out of 5 stars An informative and easy read, September 2, 2005
    Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
    This review is from: TCM: A Woman's Guide to a Trouble-Free Menopause (Paperback)
    I loved the easy format of this book. I have a number of books on Chinese Medicine and mostly I found them boring and very hard to read. This book is very easy and includes a number of very practical suggestions that you can start using right away. I've been practicing the qigong exercises mentioned in the book. I am also trying to change my diet and I went to see an acupuncturist. Overall I would suggest this book to any woman going thru the peri-menopause and menopause.
