Understanding menopause
 | I keep promising to try to focus on some of the benefits of this particularly feminine growth experience of menopause. And I’m not succeeding. So, I do what I always do when I go through a lifecycle moment...
I absolutely loved this article. It was so eloquent and well- written. Thank you!

Thank you! It helps a lot to read your way of seeing it. But I have been through this for six years now, and feel that I have lost a lot of life quality. Two years ago I counted 22 hot flashes (forgive me; but I call it "Tsunami") the 25 hours of Yom Kippur. Last year I counted 20... Can you believe how high quality I felt my Yom Kippur was? It takes away my possibility to go deep into the topics I really want to. It is embarassing too. I have eaten all kind of herbs, and they all works for some weeks, and then the effect disappears. I don't know how to look at this in a positive way any longer. But it feels great to have sisters like you! I'm not orthodox, but always went to the mikveh acc. to the laws. I didn't take the last one, though... Maybe I will now?

thank you for this article. I am a christian i only learned of this ritual and the prayers for this ritual as I was learning about menopause. I don't belong to a temple so i had to use my own bathtub to experience this ritual. It was so wonderful and i was sad that it appeared that when you no longer have a period you no longer can do the ritual. Now that I no longer bleed I can forever thank God that I was able to do this ritual and thank Him for revealing it to me. It reminded me that He was there with me before I started to bleed and He is still with me now and forever. I went from being sad about the so call end of the ritual to being filled with Joy at the continuing relationship with The Giver Of The Ritual. He taught me and is teaching me through this WEB sight.
Thank You so much for sharing with the world HIS teachings.
Much Love and Respect
Your christian sister

Thank you very much indeed for this very inspiring and totally honest article. I feel the same and sometimes just wish this waves of sweating would stop immediately, even more when they arise in an important meeting or when having dinner with business partners and friends.
Nevertheless humor and to be open to the next step...the winter of my life helps me overcome this daily and nightly "happenings".
Still, it truly feels good to learn that this is an openly discussed subject now! It does improve my life to be surrounded with "sisters".
