This page is dedicated to resources we’ve found … both on and off the internet … that we think might help you get to “Menopause Zen”.

Then, you have to figure out how to take back control of who you are becoming as you enter this new phase in life.

So here are some resources we’ve found that may help you through this lovely! time of massive change.

Best Books On Menopause

This is one of the best books on menopause that we have read. It explains what is going on in clear, simple language. And it has a very different perspective on menopause and its place in a woman’s life. Rather than seeing seeing women going through menopause as “broken” it celebrates this amazing, life-changing process and challenges us to embrace it and take back control.

Christiane Northrup, M.D. is one of the leading authorities on menopause. She has devoted her time to helping people (women especially) have great health. Her book, “The Wisdom Of Menopause” is now in its 4th Edition and the knowledge it contains, just keeps on giving.

This book was recommended by a friend who is trying to help his wife navigate the ups and downs of menopause. He realised he couldn’t do that unless he actually understood what was going on. The impact of menopause on the men and partners in our lives, doesn’t get talked about very much … but it should be. Definitely check this book out.
