IT'S NOT ABOUT FOOD: End Your Obsession with Food & Weight  IT'S NOT ABOUT FOOD: End Your Obsession with Food & Weight Ref: RED698

Carole Emery Normandi & Laurelee Roark

It's Not About Food gives you the tools and the understanding to break the destructive cycle of bingeing, dieting, and self-starvation. By using the proven techniques developed in the Beyond Hunger workshops, you will be able to transform your relationship not only with food, but also with your body and yourself. These exercises and meditations will help you determine the differences between what your body craves to eat, what your mind thinks you should eat, and what your emotions are driving you to eat. This non-diet approach goes beneath the symptoms of eating disorders and explores the cultural pressures women face, along with the physical, emotional, and spiritual concerns that create the need to overeat or undereat in the first place. Carol Normandi and Laurelee Roark have discovered, through personal experience as well as working with many women, that for the individual with an eating disorder, every unfelt feeling, every unresolved problem, has a way of turning into overeating or controlling food. It's Not About Food will help you break that cycle by abandoning dieting forever and understanding that the probable reasons for your eating disorder lie much deeper than just what and how you eat every day.

JAPANESE WOMEN DON'T GET OLD OR FAT: Secrets of My Mother's Tokyo KitchenJAPANESE WOMEN DON'T GET OLD OR FAT: Secrets of My Mother's Tokyo Kitchen Ref: REA363

Naomi Moriyama

In Japan, people live longer than anywhere else on Earth; obesity is virtually unknown, and 40-year-old women look like they're 20. The secret: Japanese homestyle cooking, and an approach to eating that is not about self-deprivation, but about celebrating and savouring food. Raised in Tokyo and on her grandparents' mountainside farm, author Naomi Moriyama first travelled to the West as a college student, and promptly gained 25 pounds eating an American diet. Returning home for the holidays, she found that the weight melted off as she returned to the healthy, soulful food of her mother's tiny kitchen: satisfying soups, fresh vegetables, delicate grilled fish, and mouthwatering meals that never left her feeling hungry. Filled with delicious recipes and evocative reminiscences, this book is for all those who are tired of counting calories and carbs, and finding themselves on diets that don't work. "Japanese Women Don't Get Old" offers a delightfully fresh and easy approach to a healthier, slimmer, and longer lifestyle.
