"As the vision obscuring veil created by hormones of reproduction begins to lift, a woman's youthful fire and spirit are rekindled, together with long sublimated desires and creative drives....if the woman remains silent for the sake of keeping peace at home and/or work, or if she holds herself back from pursuing her creative urges--the result is the equivalent to plugging the vent on a pressure cooker: Something has to give. " p. 9 |
We are privileged to present a 2 part, 20 ce post test based upon the best selling text The Wisdom of Menopause by internationally known author and speaker Christiane Northrup, M.D. This is essential reading for clinicians, women and men who wish to better understand the impact of culture and belief systems on the physical and psychological health of women at midlife. This book addresses perimenopause and menopause on the social, physical, emotional and spiritual levels. Both alternative and traditional approaches are explored in relation to health concerns at midlife. In The Wisdom of Menopause Dr. Northrup encourages us to listen to our bodies' messages and learn to make deep physical, emotional and spiritual changes in our lives.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
"Christiane Northrup, MD, obstetrician/gynecologist, is internationally known for her visionary, empowering approach to women’s health and wellness. As a practicing physician for over 20 years, Dr. Northrup is a leading proponent of medicine and healing that acknowledges the unity of the mind and body, as well as the powerful role of the human spirit in creating health. Her pioneering work has shown that conditions such as PMS, endometriosis, breast symptoms, and uterine conditions are the language through which women’s bodies speak of wounding they have experienced in a culture which has been unsupportive to women and to those values we call “womanly.” Her years of clinical experience have taught her that life-threatening, chronic, or acute illness is often a catalyst for significant inner growth and change." excerpted from http://www.drnorthrup.com/ |
