Description

In this companion book "If Not Dieting then What", Dr Rick Kausman gives essential tips on not only achieving and maintaining a healthy, comfortable weight, but also on how to relax and enjoy food. Anyone who's ever felt out of control around food will recognize that to relax and enjoy food without guilt is a difficult goal. Calm eating describes a gradual change of attitude to achieve this. It's having a healthy and happy relationship with food and achieving long-term change by succeeding at small steps along the way. This little book, with line drawings on every page, aims to offer a quick injection of inspiration, motivation and willpower. Divided into 11 themes such as "All Food is Morally Neutral", "Eating with Awareness", and "Diets Don't Work", the book provides tips, advice and quotes and can be quickly and conveniently referred to. Drawing on 15 years of professional experience in issues of weight management, Dr Rick Kausman uses warm, witty, wise and realistic advice to help you focus on taking care of yourself and your needs. There are inspirational quotes from some of his clients who are personally dealing with issues of weight management, and from other writers who share Dr Kausman's philosophy of discarding the diet mentality and, instead, learning to look at food and yourself in an ongoing positive and nurturing light.
