WOMEN, FOOD AND GOD (BOOK)

I just visited a really good scandinavian "amazon.com" called Adlibris which has a genuinly great amount of english language books for us who don't like to wait for translations on interesting titles that may never arrive.

I first heard of "Women, Food and God" by Geneen Roth when she opened as quest when the teleseries ( free by the way ;) ) Women on the Edge of Evolution started again.
Then another e-mail to her 150$ online retreat arrived - it sounded really good, but as on a forever budget I have no way to participate I decided to look up her book instead ( 13€ vs. 150$  - and we had a clear winner ). From the first paragraph on her prologue and I wanted the book and ordered the book! Have look yourself and see if you order it as well.
Geneen Roth's pioneering books were among the first to link compulsive eating and perpetual dieting with deeply personal and spiritual issues that go far beyond food, weight and body image.
She believes that we eat the way we live, and that our relationship to food, money and love is an exact reflection of our deepest held beliefs about ourselves and the amount of joy, abundance, pain or scarcity we believe we have (or are allowed to have) in our lives.

Rather than pushing away the "crazy" things we do, Geneen's work proceeds with the conviction that our actions and beliefs make exquisite sense, and that the way to transform our relationship with food is to be open, curious and kind with ourselves--instead of punishing, impatient and harsh.

In the past thirty years, she has worked with hundreds of thousands of people using meditation, inquiry, and a set of seven eating guidelines that are the foundation of natural eating.
