Long description
Women's hormonal response to stress is not the fight or flight we've heard so much about but tending and befriending. With this in mind, Meredith sets about providing the types of information and tools that any woman will recognize as useful and life changing. Meredith introduces a concept she calls your spiritual DNA , a way to see that regardless of our pre-disposition, we are not destined to be sick and we can take steps toward a healthier life. Just as physical DNA defines certain traits and tendencies but doesn't necessarily mean that we will have the same illnesses as family members, spiritual DNA defines emotional and mental tendencies. Spiritual DNA acts directly on our thoughts, feelings and attitudes, which in turn act on our bodies, resulting in a new direction and a fresh beginning toward wholeness.This four CD presentation provides meditations that put these teachings into practice, as well as explaining the teachings themselves. Meredith Young-Sowers has been teaching workshops on women moving through cancer to health professionals, healers, and women with cancer for many years, and this book flows from that work. This is the work of a life-time of teaching and healing practice, and Meredith's experience working with energy and spirituality will be welcomed by thousands of women seeking to better understand their bodies, their spirits, and their minds.
