A practical guide to rehabilitating an unhealthy relationship with food, rooted in the psychology of what we eat
How does food make you feel?
If it's a source of guilt, shame, or punishment, have you ever stopped to ask why?
We've become so used to the concept of 'good' and 'bad' foods that we barely notice the drastic statement we're making when we say we are a bad person for eating something sweet. In Food Therapy, Pixie Turner presents a new approach to our relationship with food. Instead of focusing on rules, reduction and restriction, this practical book will help you uncover the psychological roots of your eating habitsโand introduce you to a new mindset that will free you from a destructive relationship with food.
Whether you struggle with disordered eating, body image problems, or feel trapped by diet culture, Pixie's experience as a registered nutritionist and psychotherapist allows her to guide you through how your feelings affect what you eat. By showing how our eating habits are often an attempt at solving underlying problems, and how to face the difficult emotions and memories behind them, Food Therapy empowers you to eat freely for life and feel truly at home in your body.
