So I got tired of these effects and started researching what was going on with these high emotions. After describing these symptoms to a client who''s an OB-GYN specializing in Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT), I discovered I was going through peri-menopause. It was then that I began my journey with menopause, and after finding several tools, and self help factors I wanted to share this experience with women all over the world. In this way, I began my "marathon for menopause, ." I found myself experiencing a major change in life, a change quite unfamiliar to me. I embarked on new, unexplored territory with weight gain, hot flashes, moodiness, which taken together-made me unpleasant to be around. Then it hit me; I was experiencing what my mother and countless other women before me had experience; the unknown and unwanted guest of menopause. I am sharing mine, and other women experiences with others in the hope that they too can feel great and look great while going through the "change." Not everyone will be open to the challenge.

In spite of frequently saying "God bless you" and "Oh, I''m blessed" the reality for many Christians who attend church, pay tithes, worship, pray and praise is that experiencing God''s blessing is a "hit or miss situation" and sadly more miss than hit. The blessings of God are noticeably absent in their lives and they struggle with sickness, addictions, family strife, divorce, conflict, abuse, lack and poverty as much or more than those who never claim to be blessed by God.But God promises to bless His people and Christians are His people. So what''s the problem?This book helps you identify the problems and fix them through using the ancient principle of blessing. God first gave this power to Jews and later extended it to Christians who believe in the Jewish Messiah Jesus. Jews continue to practice this powerful principle and walk in God''s blessings today. But the church suffers because it virtually lost this valuable practice. These pages will restore to Christians what God still wants for His people-to have a better life through blessing.
