We all start at square one with our knowledge of health, but what matters is our willingness to learn and grow, and one great way to do that is through reading. Each month we grow together by reading a specific resource and taking daily steps to implement healthy habits into our lifestyle. There are so many incredible books out there to help us grow in our health in every area, and here is one of our favorites for hormones and intimacy: Menopause Essentials: The Ultimate Guide to Optimal Aging

This is the ideal book for women who want to prepare for perimenopause, through the woman in late menopause.

Aging often visibly accelerates in menopause and preparation for aging and menopause with the proper tools is key. There is scientific backing that supports the use of aromatherapy essential oils and herbal medicine to provide menopause and aging relief. Unfortunately, taking vitamins and essential oils is not a one size fits all proposition and a woman with one symptom may have different needs to address the symptom in comparison to her counterpart with the same symptom. With a little guidance you can learn to identify menopausal and aging signs and which essential oils can alleviate any associated symptoms.
