This is one of the better books I’ve read about emotional eating; it provides a lot of soothing, nourishing, and gentle insights about what really nourishes us as women and what’s really going on with what people usually describe as “emotional eating.” There are stories in here that I’ve never come across before and some other ideas that I hadn’t considered, and some ideas that seem to fit so well that I’m amazed I didn’t think of them before. But that’s how blind spots work, I guess. What’s in this book is useful for any woman, not just one who might have some issues with food. Here’s a hint - your issues about food aren’t about the food at all, but how you interact with food points to what you really need. I’ll be reading this book a few times most likely for both pleasure and knowledge.
