“Menopause is a time of rebirth . . . what the Chinese call a
second spring. It can also be a time of profound sexual awakening.
Let this book be your guide during this life-changing passage.”
*Christiane Northrup, M.D., author of The Wisdom of Menopause*
“Through a wide range of methods and tools, the authors offer
practical advice to support your health and emotional well-being
during menopause. By releasing old disempowering beliefs, dropping
tired and worn-out expectations, allowing yourself to express
emotions healthfully, and putting yourself and your needs first,
they offer a holistic, supportive paradigm to nourish your body and
soul, to honor yourself and your partner, to experience real
intimacy and deep love on a level previously unimaginable. They
invite you to come home to the wisdom, power, and truth of who you
are.”
*Brandon Bays, internationally bestselling author of The Journey
and Freedom Is*
“The journey of embodiment has been life changing for me. Thank
you, Diana and Janet, for writing this book while I embrace
menopause. I could not ask for a better guidebook. This work in the
realm of sexuality is truly groundbreaking and opens up a
magnificent realm of possibility and fulfillment hitherto
unimaginable.”
*Catherine Oxenberg, actress, author, producer, and
philanthropist*
“An uplifting and empowering read. The authors have shared so much
wisdom and demystified so many myths--it’s astounding!! This book
offers inspiring stories from women with open hearts and courageous
souls and many great tips and practices to access your own knowing
and body wisdom. I feel this book is for women of all ages to read
and create a new collective voice of what menopause and intimacy
can be.”
*Vanessa Finnigan, editor and publisher of Holistic Bliss
magazine*
“Through its simple, yet elegant, practices and empowering
information, Tantric Sex and Menopause is an inspiring guide that
gives the power back to women through this transition, while still
honoring men. It will speak to all women, no matter what age, who
wish to truly understand femininity and the journey of womanhood at
its core. I was inspired and uplifted by this heart-opening
book.”
*Rachael Jayne Groover, author of Powerful and Feminine*
“A woman’s midlife rebirth is a revolutionary passage that we’re
only just beginning to honor. We are urgently in need of the wise
council and fierce love of seasoned experts in feminine embodiment
like Diana Richardson and Janet McGeever to show us that, far from
being the end, menopause should be celebrated as a glorious new
awakening. This is the book we’ve been waiting for.”
*Lisa Schrader, author of Kama Sutra 52, coach, and founder of
AwakeningShakti.com*
“Tantric Sex and Menopause offers great help to menopausal women
and couples who wish to continue to be sexual and grow in their
lovemaking. Thank you to authors Diana Richardson and Janet
McGeever for sharing such practical and beneficial wisdom. May it
help many people!”
*Mercedes Kirkel, author of Sublime Union: A Woman’s Sexual Odyssey
Guided by Mary Magdalene*
“This is the book women need most right now. Whether you are peri-
or postmenopausal, this book gives the gift of empowerment. It is
high time that women in middle age and beyond are embraced as the
multifaceted sexual beings they are. Tantric Sex and Menopause does
just that and more.”
*Suzanna Miller, blogger and podcaster at Blissrunner.com*
“Tantric Sex and Menopause opens the door and introduces a new way
of being sexual that is nurturing to the feminine body. I was
struck by the empathy for the journey of women and felt a deep
sense of support and connection within this book. It offers a
recalibration of a woman’s sexuality, emotional health, and
understanding of menopause. This book is full of hormone and body
knowledge and practices that empower. I love this book.”
*Mary Spicer, life solutions coach, energy medicine practitioner,
and radio host*
