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.

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.

I found the book to be a good read, as well as address issues that I wasn't aware of or haven't been addressed by my own doctor.

The Seaweed I could not eat. I did mix vegetables I am accustomed to though and it works.

A very informative book. The only problem is that it may be difficult to follow the suggestions unless you are well acquainted with TCM in general. I don't see most westerners following the recommendations with ease. You need to attend one of Dr. Nan's workshops for more details. This book will be a good handbook to go along with the workshops if he still offers them.
