Hot flashes . . . memory lapses . . . blue periods . . . lack of energy . . . does menopause automatically make you think of symptoms like these? For many women, the transition is traumatic. But in many parts of the world, including India, the birthplace of the healing tradition of Ayurveda, menopause is viewed as a very natural transition, one that is for the most part comfortable and positively-oriented.

Now the holistic, natural approach of ayurveda is available to women in North America through the new line of ayurvedic herbals for menopause from Maharishi Ayurveda Products International, Inc. Targeted, synergistic herbal blends address a wide range of factors including memory support, vitality and emotional support.

These formulas form part of the comprehensive self-care program for menopause offered by Maharishi Ayurveda that includes a range of healing therapies including internal cleansing, diet, massage and aromatherapy.

In today's fast-paced world, Ayurveda provides a way for women to live their lives more simply, more naturally, and more contentedly. Women's roles in creating and sustaining balanced, healthy lives for themselves and their families have never been more crucial, and this compelling book will help them fulfill their goals despite the numerous demands placed upon them. Unlike many Western programs for health that treat all individuals the same, the 5,000-year-old science of Ayurveda identifies different physiological and psychological makeups and explains the lifestyle, diet, and environment most conducive to well-being for each.

Ayurveda, India's "science of life," is particularly ideal for healing and empowering the female body, mind, and spirit. Ayurveda for Women explores in detail the landmark changes associated with the three stages of life--childhood, adulthood, and old age--and provides practical advice on exercise, sleep, diet, beauty care, meditation and massage, sex and relationships, childcare, menopause, and other issues central to women's lives today. Simple to enact and profound in effect, Ayurveda could be the answer many women are seeking.
