Infos

Puberty, fertility, maternity, menopause... these major phases of a woman's life have something in common: the deep impact of hormonal changes. This book shows you how to be proactive and contribute to rebalancing your hormones, naturally.

If you are a woman aged 16 to 86 and you think that...

you would like to know your body better,

hormones are important (but you're not quite sure why),

period pain is "just a fact of life",

menopause equals suffering,

the vagina and the vulva are the same thing,

you have no time (or no money) for self-care,

a wellness break is a glass of wine while watching TV,

peeing when you sneeze can't be helped,

nobody understands what you are going through,

you'll have time to sleep when you are retired,

women's circles are for hippies and witches,

constipation has nothing to do with sexuality...

then you'll definitely benefit from reading this book!

Building on ten years of experience, this guide offers practical tips, easy to integrate into your daily life, based on a better understanding of how a woman's body works and what it needs.

Four yoga sequences and beginner-level meditations will show you how to move and rest in order to regain your energy and serenity.

A book to share with friends and family, because knowledge is power!
