Millions of us are locked into an unwinnable weight game, as
our self-worth is shredded with every diet failure. Combine the
utter inefficacy of dieting with the lack of spiritual nourishment
and we have generations of mad, ravenous self-loathing women. So
says Geneen Roth, in her life-changing new book, Women, Food and
God. Since her 1991 bestseller, When Food Is Love, was published,
Roth has taken the sum total of her experience and combined it with
spirituality and psychology to explain women's true hunger. Roth's
approach to eating is that it is the same as any addiction - an
activity to avoid feeling emotions. From the first page, readers
will be struck by the author's intelligence, humour and
sensitivity, as she traces the path of overeating from its subtle
beginnings through to its logical end. Whether the drug is booze or
brownies, the problem is the same: opting out of life. She
powerfully urges readers to pay attention to what they truly need -
which cannot be found in a supermarket. She provides seven basic
guidelines for eating (the most important is to never diet) and
shares reassuring, practical advice that has helped thousands of
women who have attended her highly successful seminars. Truly a
thinking woman's guide to eating - and an anti-diet book - women
everywhere will find insights and revelations on every page.
