Mothers Daughter Wisdom introduces an entirely new map of female development, including the 'five facets of feminine power' that range from the basics of physical care to the discovery of passion and purpose in life. This blueprint allows any woman - whether or not she has children - to repair the gaps in her own upbringing and create a better adult relationship with her mother. It is also invaluable guidance for mothers of young daughters. Drawing on patient case histories and revealing personal history, Dr Northrup discusses: Laying the nutritional foundation to prevent eating disorders and adult diseases; How we can change our genetic health legacy; Why financial literacy is essential to women's health; How to foster healthy sexuality and future 'love maps' in our daughters and more
