Summary: Turning Lemons Into Lemonade
Review: When I turned 50 I was feeling pretty blue. A friend pointed me to Women Celebrating Life as a way to uplift myself. I tried the ceremony for the fiftieth birthday and then the one titled Forgiving Mother. Wow! I didn't know how much "stuff" I had stored away. I feel relieved of a lot of animosity now. I would recommend this book to any woman who wants to release negative feelings associated with growing older and other life situations. As the author intended, the book helps to turn lemons into lemonade. I plan to buy some more books for Christmas presents.

Summary: AN EASY TO USE GUIDE FOR RECLAIMING YOUR PERSONAL POWER
Review: Women Celebrating Life is a must have book for all women to keep on their bookshelves throughout their lives. It spans a lifetime, covering the same things we all go through; from puberty to birthdays to marriage to babies to deaths and everything else in between. Simple ceremonies are included for these stages of life which encourage self recognition, understanding of others, and self empowerment through forgiveness or celebration. The ceremonies bring self assurance to girls at puberty, grand ceremony to landmark birthdays, and comfort through divorce and death. It's not a book you have to sit down and read at one time, you can simply refer to the chapters as the occurances in your life arise. I turn 50 in two months and am eagerly awaiting to celebrate this half century mark in ceremony with my friends and family. The book will also make a great gift to give my women friends and nieces.
