Dr. Christiane Northrup is the internationally famous women's health and wellness guru who proclaims a medicinal and healing philosophy that recognizes the unity of spirit, mind and body. She tells us of a life where you learn how to respect your body as a precious creation, where you no longer fear germs, disease or cancer and where your body is a barometer advising you how well you are crafting your own realityon earth.
For over 25 years Dr. Northrup practiced as physician, specialising in obstetrics and gynaecology. Now she dedicates her life to helping women, and the men who love them, to learn how to create their own health, wealth and happiness in their lives. Here is her philosophy in her own words. "I've spent the first half of my life studying and footnoting everything that can go wrong with the female body and figuring out how to fix it. I'm dedicating the second half of my life to illuminating everything that can go right with the female body, including teaching women how to truly flourish."
Having established a reputation in the field of obstetrics, Dr. Northrup made her first step to fame in 1994 when she published her first book Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom. This groundbreaking work of medical facts not usually seen by lay persons, together with many intriguing case histories became a bestseller overnight and to date has sold over 1.4 million copies, and has been translated into 16 languages.
In 1998, Dr. Northrup obtained national recognition with two television specials Women's Bodies, Women's Minds and Women's Bodies, Women's Choices. The phenomenal success of these programs led to two more specials in August 1999, entitled Your Diet, Your Health and The Wisdom of Menopause. She appeared on our screen with the message that women can be empowered to take control of their own lives and destinies.
Two years later, Dr. Northrup wrote her great work, the bestseller, The Wisdom of Menopause: Creating Physical and Emotional Health and Healing During the Change. In this groundbreaking text, she brings to light new revelations about menopause, refuting the stereotypes of hot flushes and hormonal mood swings, and presenting this phase of life as an illuminating revelation, a gift to be embraced without fear. This work has sold over 1.5 million copies and has been translated into 15 languages.
Dr. Northrup continues to break new ground. In 2005, she published Mother-Daughter Wisdom, which defines how the mother-daughter bond sets the precedent for a woman's health throughout her life. This book details step-by-step coaching in how to get the nurturing you need, regardless of your relationship with your mother. Dr. Northrup's latest book, The Secret Pleasures of Menopause delivers a powerful message that can help millions of women to understand that at midlife, life takes a turning for the better!
Dr. Northrup takes the hackneyed clich that life begins at forty and turns it into reality. Her message is no gimmick; she proves her statements beyond doubt. She amply demonstrates that a woman's life can be enriched beyond measure by the application of certain fairly obvious natural principles. I suggest you check it out now at Dr Christiane Northrup, which explains treatment of body, mind and spirit.
