Synopsis

Confusion still surrounds the menopause, and in many caes women face it with fear: fear of osteoporosis, fear of aging, fear of losing identity, fear of the unknown. This book treats the menopause in a positive, dynamic and straightforward manner. Written as a heroine's journey, the book shows the physical and spiritual changes a woman goes through between 35 and 55, changes which, when handled well, can help build a bridge from the childbearing years through to the freedom and self-confidence which is every woman's birthright. The author takes the reader through the emotional changes and introduces her to the blessings of 'The Change".
