Geneen Roth

    La obra pionera de Geneen Roth fue de las primeras en vincular la alimentación compulsiva y las dietas con cuestiones profundamente personales y espirituales que van mucho más allá de la comida, el peso y la imagen corporal. Ella postula que comemos como vivimos, y que nuestras relaciones con la comida, el dinero y el amor son reflejos exactos de nuestras creencias fundamentales sobre nosotros mismos y el nivel de alegría, abundancia, dolor o escasez que sentimos que se nos permite experimentar. En lugar de suprimir nuestros comportamientos "locos", el enfoque de Roth se basa en la convicción de que nuestras acciones y creencias tienen perfecto sentido, y que transformar nuestra relación con la comida requiere autocompasión, curiosidad y amabilidad, reemplazando la dureza y la impaciencia.

      En este conmovedor e íntimo libro, Geneen Roth explora cómo las dietas y la alimentación emocional a menudo se convierten en un sustituto de la intimidad. A partir de sus propias experiencias dolorosas y las historias sinceras de quienes ha ayudado en sus seminarios, Roth examina cuestiones cruciales que rodean la alimentación emocional: la necesidad de control, la dependencia del melodrama, el deseo de lo prohibido y la creencia de que un solo error puede significar una catástrofe. Muestra por qué muchas personas comen en exceso en un intento de satisfacer su hambre emocional y por qué la pérdida de peso frecuentemente revela un nuevo conjunto de problemas. Sin embargo, su mensaje alentador es que el cambio es posible. Este libro ayudará a los lectores a romper patrones destructivos y autoperpetuantes y a aprender a satisfacer todas las hambres—físicas y emocionales—que nos hacen humanos.

      Geneen Rothová tridsať rokov študovala príčiny prejedania sa, učila a písala o ňom. Začína kľúčovou tézou: spôsob jedenia nemožno oddeliť od základných životných presvedčení človeka. Autorka nalieha, aby sme si všímali, čo skutočne potrebujeme a čo nájdeme v supermarkete. Predstavuje sedem základných zásad jedenia a prináša praktické rady, ktoré pomohli tisíckam žien. V závere hovorí o jedle ako o bráne k slobode a k tomu, po čom túžime najviac: o tajomstve chudnutia a žiarivej prítomnosti, ktorú mnohí nazývajú „bohom“. Ak vo vzťahu k jedlu trpíte (jete priveľa alebo primálo, neustále na jedlo myslíte alebo sa snažíte vôbec naň nemyslieť), môžete sa oslobodiť. Stačí sa pozrieť do taniera. Odpoveď je v ňom. Neutekajte. Dívajte sa. Lebo keď privítame to, čomu sa najviac chceme vyhnúť, dotkneme sa niečoho vo svojom vnútri, čo je svieže a živé. Dotkneme sa života, ktorý naozaj chceme. Táto knižka je úprimný ponor do hlbokého a napĺňajúceho vzťahu s jedlom, vlastným telom... a takmer všetkým ostatným. Jednoducho povedané, kniha Ženy, jedlo a Boh je návodom, ako žiť.
