It explains how self-talk ties thought to action or inaction and how what we say to ourselves is shaped— for better or worse—by our families, culture, and personal history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt illustrates how unconscious, unhealthy self-talk leads to poor decision-making around eating, fitness, and general self-care, and how conscious, healthy self-talk promotes a positive relationship with food, body, and mind. \u003cem\u003eWords to Eat By\u003c\/em\u003e details key elements of constructive, smart self-talk.
