This workbook, designed to help learn a more effective way to deal with the stress of daily life through mindfulness, is an excellent suggestion for women in their 20’s. Often this group hasn’t had the life experience or instruction from their parents on how to manage daily life or find enjoyment in their daily existence. These useful skills can be carried through a lifetime. The program was developed from my own triumph over anxiety and depression, and is based on proven psychology and the science of neuroplasticity – the ability of the brain to create new neural pathways and overcome past trauma.

We offer 12 narratives from real women who had babies over 35 couples with the best coping advice, social science research, clear explanation of fertility facts, and Pregtiquette (the etiquette of trying to conceive and pregnancy).

Sexual health is important in your 20âs! 43% of all women experience sexual dysfunction at some point in their lives and 10-28% of reproductive-aged women have vulvodynia (Pukall, 2016). Treatment for painful sex conditions such as vaginismus, vulvodynia and dyspareunia can be expensive, as many are not covered by insurance, but there is a self-treatment option available for them. I wrote this book so women with these treatable sexual pain disorders no longer have to suffer, and they can do this in the privacy of their own homeâ says Heather Jeffcoat, Los Angeles-based physical therapist and owner of Femina Physical Therapy.
