An instant New York Times bestseller!
By: Lisa Mosconi
Foreword by: Maria Shriver
The New York Times bestselling author of The XX Brain shows women how to navigate menopause successfully and come out the other side with an even better brain.Menopause and perimenopause are still a black box to most doctors, leaving patients exasperated as they grapple with symptoms ranging from hot flashes to insomnia to brain fog. As a leading neuroscientist and women's brain health specialist, Dr. Mosconi unravels these mysteries by revealing how menopause doesn't just impact the ovaries--it's a hormonal show in which the brain takes center stage. The decline of the hormone estrogen during menopause influences everything from body temperature to mood to memory, potentially paving the way for cognitive decline later in life. To conquer these challenges successfully, Dr. Mosconi brings us the latest approaches--explaining the role of cutting-edge hormone replacement therapies like "designer estrogens," hormonal contraception, and key lifestyle changes encompassing diet, exercise, self-care, and self-talk. Best of all, Dr. Mosconi dispels the myth that menopause signifies an end, demonstrating that it's actually a transition. Contrary to popular belief, if we know how to take care of ourselves during menopause, we can emerge with a renewed, enhanced brain--ushering in a meaningful and vibrant new chapter of life.

Seven years, 130 brands, 3,000 products — only the top performers make ourshelves.
I built Pretty Clean Shop after discovering that the “natural” products in my own home weren’t actually safe or sustainable. Hidden toxins. Non-recyclable packaging. Empty promises. So I did what the industry hoped no one would do.
I investigated ingredients. Challenged chemists. What remained is this shop — a place where every product earns its place through integrity, durability, and real-world performance.
The Founder, Miriam Juarez
Any questions?
How is your clean beauty different?
We personally test and use all the products we carry to ensure they perform as promised.
Every product we offer goes through a strict vetting process. We evaluate ingredients, packaging, production practices, sustainability, and overall brand ethics.
Only products that meet our high standards for effectiveness and environmental impact make it to our shelves.
Are natural and sustainable products more expensive?
While sustainable ingredients and ethical practices sometimes come at a higher cost, we carefully curate our selection to balance quality, effectiveness, and value. Our goal is to make it easy for you to enjoy premium, ethical products without overpaying.
What if I have sensitive skin or allergies?
We understand that everyone’s skin is different. Each product includes full ingredient details, and we recommend patch testing new products if you have sensitive skin or allergies. Our curated selection favors gentle, skin-friendly formulations.
Can I refill or reorder easily? How does this work?
Yes. Refillability is a core part of our approach. Many products are refillable, and home delivery options make it simple to maintain a sustainable routine.
Once you’ve finished a product, you can purchase a refill instead of a full new container, then simply replenish your original bottle at home.
What is your return policy?
We want you to be completely satisfied with your purchase. If something isn't right, we're happy to offer an exchange or store credit within 14 days of purchase for items that are unused, unopened, and in their original packaging. We do not offer refunds.
To start a return, mail your item to 3010 Dundas Street West, Toronto ON M6P 1Z3. Return shipping costs are the customer's responsibility and are non-refundable. For items over $75, we recommend using a trackable shipping service.
