Dragon Time: Menopause as Mystery Medicine and Power

Menopause has been framed as a condition to manage-something to minimise, medicate, or move through quietly.But this narrow lens overlooks the deeper transformation that many women experience during this time.This book offers a broader, more integrated perspective on menopause, one that honours both the physical changes and the psychological, emotional, and existential shifts that often accompany them.Drawing on principles of naturopathic care and holistic health, it explores how symptoms such as fatigue, mood changes, and disrupted sleep can be understood not simply as problems to fix, but as signals from the body calling for a different way of living, relating, and responding.Rather than offering a prescriptive, one-size-fits-all solution, this work invites a more attentive and informed approach-one that supports women to: - Understand the interconnected physical, emotional, and lifestyle factors influencing their experience- Develop a more responsive and respectful relationship with their body- Navigate changes in energy, mood, and identity with greater clarity- Explore menopause as a meaningful life transition rather than a period of declinePositioned at the intersection of women's health, natural medicine, and personal development, this book speaks to those seeking a more grounded, holistic understanding of midlife.It will resonate with women navigating menopause, as well as practitioners and educators looking for a perspective that extends beyond symptom management into long-term wellbeing and self-leadership.
