Unhooked: A Holistic Approach to Ending Your Struggle with Food

Description

Break unhealthy food habits with these practical steps that combat the mental and emotional factors keeping us hooked, unhappy, and overweight. Our relationship with food extends far beyond survival. It incorporates aspects of physiology, emotions, thought patterns, and how we feel about ourselves—all influenced by a culture that turns food into a source of compulsion and guilt. Despite our best efforts, many of us remain hooked to unhealthy food habits—habits that keep us overweight and unhappy. In Unhooked, Laura Dawn sheds light on the food struggle from six essential perspectives: environmental, physiological, behavioral, mental, emotional, and spiritual. And she provides concrete steps you can take to free yourself from your personal food traps—whether it's chronic overeating, incessant cravings, food addiction, yo-yo dieting, disordered eating, or the inability to eat certain foods in moderation. These steps empower us to shift our perspective on food, fueling our transformation to vibrant health and reminding us that we are all worthy of living the healthy lives of our dreams.
