Yin Yang Balance For Menopause

The ancient Korean art of Sasang medicine explains how each of us is born with a specific body type that establishes our physical and emotional strengths and weaknesses. These traits have a direct influence on how we interact with others and react to stress and life's transitions. Discovering your type will enable you to understand why you are prone to certain symptoms and not others, choose the most compatible remedies and treatments and make the best choices regarding your health and well-being. Applying the wisdom of Sasang medicine to the major life transition of menopause, Dr. Gary Wagman explores how each of the four Sasang body types has its own unique menopausal challenges, as well as opportunities and how the natural remedies and diets that work for one type might not work for another. Providing guidelines and tests to determine your type, he describes each type's emotional tendencies, physical strengths and weaknesses and their balance of Yin and Yang energy within the organ systems, explaining why hot flushes occur when they do, why insomnia is suddenly an issue or why you feel depressed. Revealing the impact our emotions have on our physiological health, he describes how different emotions, such as anger and sadness, correlate with a particular type's inborn energetic patterns. Presenting natural remedies, exercises, supplements and diet and food recommendations for each Yin-Yang body type, Dr. Wagman, also, includes body-type-specific Sasang herbal remedies for the most common challenges related to menopause, including hot flushes, osteoporosis, depression, mood swings, hormone balance, urinary health, fibroids, frozen shoulder, brain fog and loss of libido. Offering specific ways to take charge of your own emotional, physical and sexual health, this practical guide provides a compass to help you smoothly navigate the sometimes turbulent waters of menopause and harness the spiritual and emotional strengths of this life transition.
