Transcending Diets and Dogma to Nourish the Natural Self
These are confusing times for the health conscious consumer - hundreds of conflicting diets competing for public attention, each backed by authoritative advocates and compelling testimonials. Which diet is correct? Which authority should we believe? Which source of information can we trust?
The Yoga of Eating presents a wholly new approach, a path of self-trust and self- exploration. This book does not tell you what to eat and what not to eat. It is not a book about nutrition, nor is it about "yogic diet". Instead it is a practical and inspiring manual that explains how to:
- Distinguish superficial cravings from authentic appetites, to give your body the nourishment it needs;
- Bring your diet into allignment with who you are, and who you wish to be;
- Choose from among hundreds of diets on the market to identify which comes closest to meeting your unique needs;
- Transform the delight and pleasure of eating into an ally in the quest for health
- Build trust in your natural body and natural self
The Yoga of Eating offers original insights on the physical and spiritual functions of sugar, fat, meat and other foods; fasting, dieting, processing, will power and the deeper principles of self-nurture. Dispensing with traditional doctrine, this book appeals to a higher authority - your own body- and shows how to access and trust the wisdom your body has to offer.
