OverviewAn alternative and unique perspective on our understanding of menopause. This groundbreaking book offers a response to the call of women to listen deeply to the wisdom of their bodies as they go through the change and stages of peri-menopause and menopause. In modern times, even with the increased awareness of recent years, the overriding response is management and relief of symptoms. However, in this book Reva provides a revolutionary approach to menopause, perceiving this transition as a rite of passage and alchemical process. Through her own experience Reva acts as a guide in allowing women to connect with their bodies and awareness though contemplation, as well as suggesting practices to support a deepening of women's exploration of menopause, including yoga, meditation and ritual. Within these pages, Reva will provide women with a sense of trust, and wider perspective as they discover more about their bodies, their perceptions, learning from, rather than fearing this time of change.
