Menopause is not the end of your life—it’s a chance for a new beginning. It’s an opportunity to discover and redefine who you are and how you want to live your life. Take Charge of the Change shows how you can fuel your body, your spirit, your emotions, and your relationships during this time of change. This practical resource offers ways to:
· Recognize the role hormones play in your symptoms and find solutions that are medically sound and personally satisfying.
· Minimize the problems associated with menopause: weight gain, fatigue, irritability, insomnia, depression, hot flashes, mood swings, loss of libido, fuzzy thinking, and more.
· Sort through conflicting medical information and make informed decisions about treatments, including hormone replacement therapy.
· Create a balanced lifestyle through a twelve-week plan that covers not only nutrition and exercise, but emotional and spiritual growth as well.

From break-through research regarding brain function and body chemistry to a step-by-step plan built around nutrition, exercise, emotional and spiritual care, Take Charge of the Change will empower you to become more fit, more energetic, and more excited about being a woman, no matter what your age.
