Speaks directly to a universal women's health issue,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Taking Charge of the Change: A Holistic Approach to the Three Phases of Menopause (Paperback)
Collaborative written by family nurse practitioner Lennie Martin and freelance writer and herbalist Pam Jung, Taking Care Of The Change: A Holistic Approach To The Three Phases Of Menopause covers both the physical and emotional sides of adjusting to the onset of menopause in older women. From coping with hormone changes and getting screened for ovarian cancer, to weathering stress, making a spiritual journey, and adopting a new archetype (alchemist, Queen, Wise Woman, etc.) for oneself, Taking Care Of The Change is thorough, personable, informative, and highly recommended reading that speaks directly to a universal women's health issue.

This book is very thorough in explaining the physical mechanisms behind menopause as well as the emotional issues.
