Dear Susun,
Thank you for a wonderful web site packed with so much information.
I am 53 and I think, starting menopause. …. Yesterday I debated going to see the doctor, but thought he will think I am crazy if I explain what’s happening to me. I stumbled across your site and the words about “you know your body better than a doctor” jumped out at me!
…
Thank you for so much inspiration and information, I know I shall be a regular visitor to the website.
Regards from Sunny South Africa.

Hello,
I very much would like to be added to your mailing list. I have been reading your website for several hours now and am highly enjoying the info you post. During my pregnancy (she just turned 10) I bought all three books from Susun Weed and have found that those are the only books I will ever need. Thank you.
Looking forward to your news letter!!
Love and peace,
Stephanie

Dear Susun
Firstly, I must tell you that I first heard of you last night. I had just seen a DVD about Juliette of the Herbs - the wonderful Juliette de Bairacli Levy - it was the first I had heard of her and I wept because she was living what I have dreamed. I did a search on the net about her and also found
your site which is amazing - I live in Western Australia and as far as I am aware there are no classes like the ones you have. …(I have been spending hours on your site today!) … You are an inspiration to me and I wish you all the very best
Kindest regards Wendy

Thank you Susun Weed for helping me with the most horrible episodes of menopause that ever lived! I saw you speak on television a long time ago and I was smitten by your energy and what you had to say. When my kind, very dear cardiologist recommended that I take a beta-blocker for my heart palpitations after every test came out benign...I sought out what you had to say. Now I take motherwort, and other natural remedies and I think it is helping me.
Like you, I am a writer. My book, Void of Moon, The Emotional Journey Through Marital Separation is helping many women, and even some men, through what could be a very difficult, confusing and frightening journey. This is a journey I am very familar with, but the menpause one...forget it! I am totally in the dark. Until now. Thank you so much for sending your wisdom out there. I think I may just get through this now.
Best regards,
Denise

Greetings Susun!
It has been some time since I have written, and can I say I will be most happy to 'sit with you' on your birthday. I may even have an orangeflower cocktail as 60 is such a lovely number... I look forward to turning 33 next year, double my favourite number! Like a fine wine, each year we all seem to mature, so 60 sounds like a great place to be, although I've got a few years left of young children before I get there!
...all the very best for the New Year and thank you again for all your work and your e-zine. I wish you a wonderful 2006 and a happy birthday on February 8
Blessings,
Karen

Hello to you,
Hope you are well and savoring the season.
I had a hunch to visit this site yet again and I figured I would actually send some sort of communication along this time. The website is growing in talents and knowledge. Each time I visit, I am amazed at the information available and the empowerment of sharing this knowledge openly.
I would love to receive a copy of your next publication of Weed Wanderings.
I have been visiting Susun's website for years now. I moved to the Catskills 1 year ago and am thinking about possibly coming to a Moon Lodge next year. I am very interested in exploring deeper (with guidance and compassion)........the Goddess within and am looking into taking some classes also when it feels right.
Thank you very much for your time and information.

Hello,
… And may I take a moment to let you know how very much I enjoy the Wise Women e-zine. Actually, I enjoy everything that Susun Weed and her team are doing for women. I have purchased Susun's book, The New Menopausal Years and Healing …. The New Menopausal Book is wonderful, extremely informative and entertaining as well.
I laugh in remembrance of my own CHANGE oddities as I read through the chapters, which began when I was about 38; and I grieved again remembering when my last period visited me two years ago…
Regardless, I intend to incorporate as many suggestions as possible of the Wise Woman tradition into my life from this point forward. And share what I learn with all who will listen, pointing them in your direction for further instruction.
Even though I didn't follow Wise Woman tradition during my younger years, I was always very fertile, very regular, and welcomed each period with joy, knowing that this bleeding was part of the ancient mystery connecting me to all women who have died, lived, and will become. And, I have taught my only daughter to welcome her bleeding times, and to marvel in her woman's mystery as well. She is 24, an athletic trainer, and is exploring Wise Women tradition with great interest. She has incorporated into her life much of what I have learned and shared with her. In turn, she offers what she has learned with her friends and clients. Hence, she purchased The Childbearing Years. I wish I had known ALL the things Susun writes about when both my daughter and I were younger…
Sharing the little knowledge I have learned thus far of the Wise Woman Tradition is so much more compassionate than the way my mother was brought up… What a fighter she was, what life force she embodied!!
…I have no female family member as points of reference regarding the wonders of natural menopause. This is why I find The New Menopausal Years so comforting and
informing. Susun's words make me feel part of a family of women who embrace, love and appreciate every aspect of their body.
One more bit before I sign off. I leave the New Menopausal Years in our bathroom as I read my first reading of the book in snitches. And, one of my sons (a sophomore in college) is reading it as well. He says that there is nothing else to read which is funny because he keeps old copies of his running magazine on the lower shelves. Evidently, he is intrigued by the wondrous mysteries of his mother and sister, and girl friends, as well!!!!
May all of you at Ash Tree Publishing and Wise Woman be blessed!!!
Thank you, thank you, with all my being.
Yours truly,
Jana

Hi Susun
While looking for natural therapy correspondence courses, I found and love your website. I have had difficulty deciding on a particular modality of natural healing, but am feeling more and more drawn towards herbs. I love the connection to the plants that you encourage, and would like to combine your spiritual approach with the more academic approach that most of the colleges are offering. I think that my lack of commitment to a particular course is due to the lack of spiritual connection they offer. In fact, they seem to take the spiritually out of healing completely, which I feel defeats the purpose.
Kind regards
Natalie

Dearest Susun,
You will not remember me, but I attended a workshop with you in Ann Arbor MI several years ago. I am currently studying and attending dances in Alabama. The reason I am telling you this is I consider myself a fledgling Wise Woman, and would like to take your on-line classes, as well as getting your newsletter. I have recieved schedule of classes from you through the mail, but cannot at this time come to New York. Therefore--long distance works!!
Thank you in advance--Diane

Dear Susun,
I enjoy reading your column in SageWoman magazine, and I just ordered your
books, Breast Cancer? Breast Health! and Wise Woman Menopausal Years.
I have always taken a proactive role in my own healthcare, preferring to use
natural methods whenever possible and trusting my own knowledge and
intuition rather than relying solely on doctors. I am always seeking new
knowledge.
Please add me to your mailing list.
Thank you and blessings,
Michele
