The Intuitive Eating Workbook

Reviews / Votes

"This is not just another book about dieting, but rather a simple ten-step approach to improve the relationship between food and one's mind, body, and soul! The book promotes the principles that will maximize psychological and physical health to improve quantity and quality of life-something that I have promoted and written about for the past thirty-five years. This work should prove to be extremely helpful to many patients, including my own, and to the general public. I highly recommend it!"

-Jenni Schaefer, author of Goodbye Ed, Hello Me; Life Without Ed; and coauthor of Almost Anorexic "From the dangers of dieting and weight cycling to learning body respect and total self-care, this workbook covers all the bases of intuitive eating for both novices and those who need a bit more help along the way. Although dieticians generally teach us the 'what' of eating, Tribole and Resch write about the 'why' and 'how' of it as well as any seasoned eating disorders therapists."
-Karen R. Koenig, MEd, LCSW, author of The Food and Feelings Workbook and six other books on eating "Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Resch's The Intuitive Eating Workbook is a must-have for anyone who wants to improve their relationship with food! Its practical, easy-to-read format walks you step-by-step through the process of learning to use your internal wisdom to enjoy eating food in a peaceful, healthy way. A fantastic resource for health care professionals."
-Susan Albers, psychologist and New York Times bestselling author of EatQ, Eating Mindfully, and 50 Ways to Soothe Yourself Without Food "Intuitive eating is both revolutionary and utterly logical. This is an invaluable guide to anyone who has ever struggled with food. In fact, I believe anyone would benefit from utilizing this resource as it directly challenges both our individual food issues, and those endemic to our culture. This is the end of dieting, for everyone."
-Kelsey Miller, author of Big Girl "The Intuitive Eating Workbook is the perfect must-read, must-experience, and must-use supplement to Evelyn and Elyse's game-changing book, Intuitive Eating. The workbook models a dialect of compassion that makes each exercise accessible and-pun intended-digestible for all. The Intuitive Eating Workbook is The Artist's Way of health, offering keys to long-term, sustainable self-care, recognizing that eating is bigger than simply food itself. As Evelyn and Elyse say in the workbook, 'You are the expert of your own body,' an obvious and still radical notion that can both enhance our own lives, and also change the world at large."
-Caroline Rothstein, MS, writer, performer, activist, and educator "Recovery from stress eating and body shame isn't about becoming a new person; it's a process that takes you back to the healthy, safe place you once knew as a child, before dreams of happiness through weight loss made you lose your way. The Intuitive Eating Workbook breaks down a potentially scary journey into practical, even enjoyable, steps. It's like you're on the yellow brick road, and Tribole and Resch are your ever-supportive sidekicks, warning you of pitfalls and boosting you when you struggle. Add in a catchy tune, and find your way back to where you always belonged."
