There is something mysterious surrounding hormones, women never quite get the concrete answers they are looking for. They get blood screenings, scans, squabs, scraps and smears, and they all come back negative, even though they intuitively know there is something wrong. We must be missing something important when it comes to hormones, and after 15 years of working with women as a holistic practitioner, Linda Crockett has found solutions to this hormonal dilemma. Hormonal conditions today are treated on a very physical level, with either synthetic hormones or organ removal. What is missing then, in our understanding of hormonal conditions is that they are not only of the physical level, but are governed by emotions and driven by the spirit of women. When treatment dismisses the emotional and spiritual aspects of women's lives, healing of hormonal conditions remains unattainable.Through reading each chapter of this book women get to explore all aspects of themselves, bringing an approachable understanding to their physical symptoms, recognizing the hidden emotional origins of their hormonal conditions, and finding the solutions to their health problems. This book is written with enough intellect to get the science right, with the intuitive knowledge to have the readers nod in acknowledgement, and with the wisdom needed to bring healing.

Reviews
I was completely inspired by Linda's book. Its a stunning contribution to women's health in every way. Linda draws on her extensive experience with women's issues to develop a truly comprehensive and holistic approach to wellness. In a sensitive and professional manner, she explores not only the physical symptoms of dis-ease and imbalance, but the spiritual and emotional aspects of health - or lack of it - as well. Herbal protocols are well rounded and thought out, and developed in such a way that women can chose what they need most. This book, I'm sure, will be be a valuable resource for women seeking answers to their health problems and health professionals as well. I'll certainly recommend it to the women I know!

Well researched, informative and compassionately presented, I found myself appreciating with wonder the intricate interplay between my own hormones, emotions and spiritual yearnings.
