“Reading this book feels like sitting across from a wise friend who sees you, truly sees you, and hands you the tools to remember your power.”
— from the foreword by
Dr. Mindy Pelz, New York Times best-selling author of Fast Like a Girl, Eat Like a Girl, and Age Like a Girl
“Why am I falling apart?” Dr. Sonya Jensen hasbeen hearing this question, in one form or another, from her patients foryears. This book is her answer.
There is a huge disconnect, Dr. Sonya explains, between how women are feelingin their minds and bodies and how they are treated in today’s medical system.They are told things like “it’s a part of aging,” “you just need to get outmore,” or the best, “there’s nothing I can do but here’s an antidepressant.”Perimenopausal women in particular are told that the stage they are indoesn’t even exist, despite the multitude of symptoms they experience everysingle day. Women turn to influencers and Dr. Google to solve their healthproblems but don’t know how to navigate all the noise. They feel unheard,unsafe, undervalued, stretched to the max, and, most of all, alone.
Until now. After treating patients in her Divine Elements Health Center formore than 15 years, conducting thousands of hormone tests and treatmentprotocols, leading women’s circles and yoga retreats, apprenticing with anOBGYN, studying the shamanic medicine wheel, and traveling a continuouslyevolving path of self-discovery, Dr. Sonya has identified the missing link inthe realm of women’s health: how your everyday moments, emotions, andrelationships are influenced by the health of your hormones. In this book, sheunpacks this profound connection, then outlines her signature HER Method(Hormonal-Emotional-Relational) of healing, which includes:
- A breakdown of the hierarchy of hormonal healing
- In-the-moment techniques to relieve suffering and deepen connection
- Practices to bring you back in sync with your body, drawn from biohacking,ancient herbs, nutrition science, and movement
- Guidance for next steps inmedical treatment, such as testing you may need
- And much more
Filled with wisdom, compassion, and soulful support, this is a must-haveguide to a healthier, more joyful life.
