In this volume, the author shows us how to think and feel differently about what we eat. 'Eating is pleasurable, eating is delicious, eating is sensual' says Susie Orbach. But for so many of us eating is associated with anguish and abstinence. From the first page this little book shows us how to think and feel differently about what we eat. So that we eat when we are hungry, eat what we want to eat to satisfy us and stop when we are full. Each page contains an easily absorbed bite-sized statement to transform eating that hurts into eating that nourishes and calms. This book isn't magic but it feels as if it is.
