Book Description
Media darling and registered dietitian Shira Lenchewski helps readers improve their relationship with food, conquer cravings, and feel their best.If you asked people to post a status update on their relationship with food, most would say “It’s Complicated.” We aspire to eat healthfully, but find ourselves making hasty food choices driven by stress and convenience. Or we treat ourselves to a decadent dessert, but feel so guilty we don’t even enjoy it. The truth is we can’t make good food decisions if we don’t examine our relationship with food. In THE FOOD THERAPIST, Shira Lenchewski offers readers an ongoing one-on-one food therapy session, revealing the root causes of our emotional hang-ups around food, and providing the necessary tools to overcome them. This practical and judgement-free guide helps readers hone the skills needed to put their get-healthy intentions into daily action, such as planning ahead wisely, tuning into their fullness cues, and harnessing willpower (even when life gets messy). Shira also offers easy-to-follow, tasty recipes aimed at rebalancing our hormones and conquering our cravings without deprivation. THE FOOD THERAPIST is a refreshingly modern resource that helps us finally un-complicate our relationship with food and our bodies. We can then focus our efforts on making thoughtful, healthy choices, day in and day out, that serve our ultimate goals, whatever they may be.
