DESCRIPTION:
Supplemental pages help readers identify emotions and chart emotional development. Written with honesty and humor, the book explains how to identify and label a specific emotion, the function of that emotion, and why the emotion drives food and eating problems. The final part of the workbook focuses on strategies for disconnecting feeling from food, discovering emotional triggers, and using one,s feelings to get what one wants out of life.. This unique workbook takes on the seven emotions that plague problem eaters - guilt, shame, helplessness, anxiety, disappointment, confusion, and loneliness - and shows readers how to embrace and learn from their feelings. An extraordinary, powerful connection exists between feeling and feeding that, if damaged, may lead to one relying on food for emotional support, rather than seeking authentic happiness. Each chapter has two sets of exercises: experiential exercises that relate to emotions and eating, and questionnaires that provoke thinking about and understanding feelings and their purpose
Love the book, price isn't worth it unless you have bad eyes This book is the larger print size version, I was hoping to have the designated spaces to write within the book, but they were removed. ---It's the only reason why I paid double the price of the original. That said, I am liking the book so far. Lots of good review on the content, so my only issue is that I bought it for writing and there isn't room for that.
