I am in the menopause process so this book is one I was really looking forward to reading. I found the information to be helpful and I think some of it will work for me, if not most of it. I haven't had opportunity to try it all yet, which is why I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars. I think the information is well-presented and easy to understand. I think her plan is holistic and I like that. I already have an interest in essential oils and have used some so I do come at this information with some knowledge.

I liked how Snyder incorporates nutrition and lifestyle along with the oils. I believe it all works together to make us the best we can be and I think she does that well. My one concern is that she sells supplements and she uses those as part of the plan. I wish, instead, that she would give a general idea of what to take. For example, vitamin C, enzymes, etc. instead of listing her supplements by name. Still, I would recommend that book as it is easy to use and follow otherwise.

I would definitely recommend to everyone who is going through perimenopause/menopause to add this book to your collection. Its nice to have handy when specific symptoms arise.
I found it helpful that Part II was by symptom so that when a particular issue pops up its very easy to find the solutions. I used numerous essential oil blends and was amazed at the results! I recommended to friends who also had the same level of results. I have also taken quite a few of the supplements/vitamins with outstanding results. In all honesty I have not yet tried the 21 day program because of food allergies. And with the results from just the oils & supplements I don’t feel the need to do so at the moment.

This is the perfect manual for anyone who is in perimenopause or menopause, who has questions about this time in a woman's life, or who is experiencing health issues that could be hormone-related. This is a book that you will want to keep handy and refer to often. It has a wealth of information on a variety of topics, from stress, sleep issues, hot flashes and night sweats, fatigue and low energy, mood swings, anxiety & depression, thyroid problems, digestive problems, brain fog, low libido, pelvic floor dysfunction & urinary incontinence, and heavy bleeding and fibroids. There is a 21-day hormone makeover program to try, complete with meal plan and recipes. There is also a wealth of essential oil recipes for diffusers, rollerballs, and sprays. This is an excellent guide that I highly recommend all women check out.
