by Dorothy MorrisonDorothy Morrison was shocked when she
began menopause at thirty-two. But she discovered that this was the
best thing that ever happened to her. In her book, In Praise of the
Crone, she reveals her discoveries for making this the best time in
her life. You can make this an exhilarating, fun transition,
too.
For too long, society has been saying that age
is not good and that older people have no energy or verve. Youth has
it's importance, but so does maturity. Here you will learn the truth:
that personal value, self-worth, and true beauty all increase
with age.
Remember when you were very young and wished
to be older? This book confirms what you've always suspected: that
maturity is the beginning of life's liberties and freedom. You'll
discover that youth is only a dress rehearsal for the fun, happiness,
and satisfaction that come with the menopausal transition.
As
we have wandered farther from Pagan and
natural roots, menopause has caused problems for many women.
In Praise of the Crone shows you how to use spells, formulas, rituals,
recipes, and meditations in order to use this stage of life to
increase your levels of joy and pleasure. You'll learn home remedies
to avoid the need for hormone replacement therapy or prescription
drugs.
This book is a sassy guide to Cronehood. It
gives practical techniques and herbs you can use to prevent some
of the nuisances normally associated with menopause. It even shows
you how you can actually use the energy of this transition ("hot
flash energy") to empower your magic!
This book is fun, lively,
and entertaining.
