Description:

With such groundbreaking bestsellers as Women’s Bodies, Women’s Wisdom and The Wisdom of Menopause, Dr. Christiane Northrup is one of today’s most trusted and visionary medical experts. Now she presents her most profound and revolutionary approach to women’s health. . . .

The mother-daughter relationship sets the stage for our state of health and well-being for our entire lives. Because our mothers are our first and most powerful female role models, our most deeply ingrained beliefs about ourselves as women come from them. And our behavior in relationships—with food, with our children, with our mates, and with ourselves—is a reflection of those beliefs. Once we understand our mother-daughter bonds, we can rebuild our own health, whatever our age, and create a lasting positive legacy for the next generation.

Mother-Daughter Wisdom introduces an entirely new map of female development, exploring the “five facets of feminine power,” which range from the basics of physical self-care to the discovery of passion and purpose in life. This blueprint allows any woman—whether or not she has children—to repair the gaps in her own upbringing and create a better adult relationship with her mother. If she has her own daughter, it will help her be the mother she has always wanted to be.

Drawing on patient case histories and personal experiences, Dr. Northrup also presents findings at the cutting edge of medicine and psychology. Discover:

•How to lay the nutritional foundation to prevent eating disorders and adult diseases
•The truth about the immunization controversy–and the true meaning of immunity
•How we can change our genetic health legacy
•Why financial literacy is essential to women’s health
•How to foster healthy sexuality and future “love maps” in our daughters
•How to balance independence with caring, and individual growth with family ties

Written with warmth, enthusiasm, and rare intelligence, Mother-Daughter Wisdom is an indispensable book destined to change lives and become essential reading for all women.

5excellent book  Aug 26, 2009
very insightful, informative, helpful book. Combines spiritual, psychological and medical (mind, body, soul) information for enhancing your relationship with your daughter. Gives you what you need to give your daughter what she needs to be the best, happiest she can be.

3 Good Book but...  Mar 04, 2009
This is an important book for every Mother and Daughter.
The only thing wrong is I find Christiane Northrup's books are not organized very well. It can be very frustrating if you are trying to read about something specific.
I have enjoyed watching/listening to her speak on "Oprah" a lot more than reading her books.

5Start your healing with your Mom now  Sep 29, 2008
This is a rich, generous, heavy book so I am only half-way through and I'm sure I read 400 pgs. Yet Dr. Northrup divides the chapters so meaningfully it flies by. I am underlining all the way (one of my signs it's a keeper book). She is teaching me things about birth and health that I have not heard before and I am a voracious reader on the subject. Some of it is too scientific for me but that's ok -- she's a good, conversational writer. The deepest gift she gives is our opportunity to understand our birth through our mother, what our mother might have gone through and what we went through as innocent new beings. I have already called Mom and told her "Hey, mom you did this and that right! You were a great mother." I recommend any of her work(I have one of her other books and have heard her speak on public television numerous times -- great speaker). This is a book about forgiveness. If you can understand the delicate process of bringing in a child, and the relationship between a mother and daughter, you can begin to search for healing no matter what kind of relationship you had with your mother.

3Too many pages, too much nonsense  Aug 16, 2008
Blah Blah BLah.
I saw this woman speak on PBS. She was very interesting. rushed to get the book.
Man what a lot of Blah Blah Blah. This book is huge with too many stories. Do i have enough time to devote to this book? NO
Would love a condensed version.
Do you have no life and enough time to listen to her babble, get the book then. Otherwise i would advise just watching a video.

5every woman can find understanding with this book  Jul 23, 2008
Every woman will be able to find some understanding in this book, whether it be with their own mother or their daughters. The heart,mind and body are all addressed here and I have actually referred back to it as a reference book for different stages of development. I felt so strongly about it that I have given many as gifts and also donated one to my Library.Dr. Northrup delivers with this one!!
