A self-care guide for all women who want to enjoy their cyclical nature and experience a fulfilling and healthy life. Through the revealing case studies of women's own personal experiences, it offers an approach to menstruation that moves beyond biology to restore a dignity and deeper meaning to a woman's cyclical nature. The work should also be useful to parents who wish to pass on a positive experience of menstruation to their daughters, and for men, to help them gain an insight into the world of women. There is an extensive contacts list and references section.
