When it comes to health and well-being, many women know that their body is an ally, always showing them the right path. American gynecologist Christiane Northrup has long been convinced that there is a connection between mental suffering and physical illness. From decades of medical practice, she knows that a woman's life circumstances and history are linked to her gynecological disorders. Therefore, she encourages women to discover what has caused them to be ill and shows them paths to healing.

Dr. Northrup has now completely revised and updated her bestseller. Using case studies and the latest research, she shows how women can grasp the wisdom inherent in every bodily process—from menstruation to PMS to menopause. She openly and clearly describes how women can learn to understand these processes as part of their inner voice, how they can activate their innate capacity for healing and self-healing, and how they can live it day by day.
