Product Description
Millions of women enter what is called “mid–life” (over age 40) every year. Speaker, writer, and “Sister in the Journey” Ronna Snyder shares how these women can avoid a crisis and discover instead a joyful beginning of a richer and deeper way to live. Ronna found herself going from doctor to doctor trying to find someone who could tell her what was wrong with her. She heard words like fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, and depression before finally hearing a specialist on the radio listing all of her symptoms and realizing that she was experiencing the beginning of menopause. With all the changes this time of life brings—kids leaving home, parents needing care, new marriage roles, etc.—the turmoil and addition of the physical and emotional effects of menopause can seem overwhelming. Ronna writes with humor, faith, and transparency to help other women face down their fears and live with passion and fullness.

Menapause by M. Dube (New Jersey) 5 Stars

Better than bestselling fiction by Niki Anderson (Spokane, WA USA) 5 Stars
April 20, 2008
Better than bestselling fiction is Ronna Snyder's book for women in midlife crises. Its one hot handbook of `heaven-sent flashes" of insight unlike anything I've read. The author discusses the mysteries of menopause and how she dealt with them successfully, though not without periods of perplexity. True stories open with quotations that Snyder calls a "Power Surge," much like a shot of estrogen. A concluding section tagged "Mental-Pause" provides facts, resources and actions for the struggling midlifer. The book is a gentle blend of information, personal experience, and believable accounts about the God who sends life-saving support to get us through difficult phases of life. As I read each entertaining chapter, I was either near tears or just plain inspired. She writes to the reader, whom she addresses as "girlfriends", with freshness, style, humor and intelligence. As a post-menopausal mama myself, I learned even more that helped me clarify the whys and what-fors of my own midlife challenges.

Am I really going crazy or is my family making me this way? I thought I was losing my mind!I thought my husband and family were making me crazy! In 'Hot Flashes from Heaven' Ronna helped me understand the hormonal changes that were happening to my body. My husband now understands 'me' better during MY 'flashes from hell.' I can now relate and deal with my emotional craziness and I am more at peace with me. I loved the book and couldn't put it down. She is a lifesaver in my time of turmoil.

The best book I've read in ages. by Teresa L. Troyer (Spokane, WA USA) 5 Stars
April 17, 2008
What a wonderful book, I couldn't put it down. Ronna made me laugh, made me cry, made me go WOW that's why I do that... The best part about Hot Flashes from Heaven was it got me to listen more to those voices in my head. They aren't just voices, that's God trying to direct my life, to give me insight on what is happening in my life. Thank you Ronna. You have a huge servants heart and I was truly blessed to read you book. Thank you. Teri Troyer www.Spokanebiker.com

I loved this book! by Jasmine Summers (Springfield, OR USA) 5 Stars
February 18, 2008
This book is an extremely funny, yet frank book written for women either entering that "time of their lives" or women who are in the midst of "change". I laughed, I cried and I loved every word of this book! Written by a woman with a heart for others, Mrs. Snyder informs and helps the reader sort through myth and fact with tenderness and humor.
