In this wonderful book, herbalist Kami McBride introduces the reader to a unique way of looking at menstruation as a 'shape shifting tool' that allows us to rethink and reshape our personal worlds. My favorite part of the book is Kami's suggestions for how to celebrate menstruation, 105 ways to be exact! This would be the perfect book for a young woman just entering her moon time, for a woman who is experiencing difficulty during menstruation or for any woman wishing to feel more empowered and creative during her monthly cycle. -ROSEMARY GLADSTARAuthor of Herbal Healing for Women and the Family HerbalMenstruation is not usually thought of as a time of honor or celebration. It is commonly called the curse, 'that dreaded time of the month', 'a bloody mess', 'on the rag' and other derogatory names. These names are a reflection of our thoughts and feelings about menstruation. When we reject a body function as something negative, dirty or insignificant, there is an energetic and psychological separation from that part of the body. The negative thought patterns associated with menstruation are indeed part of the reason why so many women experience unique combinations of over one hundred different symptoms and ailments categorized under PMS.We can develop a new way of thinking about menstruation. A way that creates positive thoughts and images in relation to this important body cycle. A way that allows us to truly love and accept our body just the way it is. We can learn to appreciate menstruation as something normal and healthy. When women don't feel like they have to 'do' something to hide or control this natural body function, they experience a greater sense of self esteem, well being and peace of mind.
