Book excerpt: If you’ve been struggling with your weight, you know how hard it can be to lose those extra pounds and keep them off. In the groundbreaking Think Thin, Be Thin, nationally prominent psychotherapist Doris Wild Helmering and award-winning health writer Dianne Hales assert that the true key to a healthy body weight is a healthy attitude toward food and exercise. Their logic is simple: Your brain ultimately controls what you eat and whether you work out. If you change the way you think, you can change the way you behave. And you can lose weight. Using proven psychological strategies and scientifically based exercises, you will learn how to harness your thoughts to transform your behavior, body, and life. With practical advice on such troublesome issues as curbing emotional eating, motivating yourself to exercise, and overcoming diet plateaus, this book is the ideal complement to any diet and weight-loss program.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the author of Women Who Think Too Much, a groundbreaking book that uncovers a hidden source of depression in women today Depression is a common and debilitating problem among women, though it rarely occurs in a vaccum. As Susan Nolen-Hoeksema's original research shows, overthinking—a tendency to ruminate on problems rather than to seek solutions—often co-exists with unhealthy eating habits and/or heavy drinking. In fact, 80 percent of women who report suffering from one of those also suffer from another. This groundbreaking book, written in a vivid narrative style that captures the complexities of women's lives today, explains how the three core problems of the Toxic Triangle reinforce one another, wreaking havoc on women's emotional well-being, physical health, relationships, and careers. Escape is possible, Nolen-Hoeksema assures us, for those who are already aware that they suffer from a serious problem as well as for the hundreds of thousands of others who have not yet examined the role that bingeing and purging—on negative thoughts, food, or alcohol—plays in their lives. Nolen-Hoeksema shows women how to harness their emotional and interpersonal strengths to overcome the stress caused by a destructive relationship with food, alcohol, and overthinking so that they can fashion effective, healthier strategies for living the life they deserve.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nobody is immune to depression, not even the most faithful and dedicated Christians. Finding the strength to effectively cope with ongoing depression in one’s life may seem like an insurmountable personal and faith challenge for many followers of Jesus. You may feel like you’re useless, unworthy of joy, and a complete spiritual failure. While a number of books have been written on depression from a psychological perspective, Overcoming the Blues addresses spiritual concerns to provide hope and comfort for the faithful. As a counseling professor, minister, and licensed clinical pastoral therapist, Dr. Ryan Noel Fraser has recognized the ubiquity of depression among believers, as well as the overwhelming need for capable caregivers within the church. His revolutionary how-to guide offers practical guidance and holistic methods to relieve the distressing symptoms of depression in three Christ-centered ways: (1) Recognize God’s abiding presence (2) Reach out to others (2 Corinthians 1:3-5) (3) Respect your limitations This book seeks to motivate, mentor, and mobilize sufferers of depression in the church to see that serving is so much more than merely a short-lived distraction from your own suffering; it can be a powerful and restorative antidote—a transformative way of life that facilitates healing and hope.

Download or read book Overcoming Your Eating Disorder written by W. Stewart Agras and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2007-09-17 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) has been proven effective for treating Bulimia Nervosa and Binge Eating Disorder. However, this type of program requires at least 6 months of weekly sessions with a qualified mental health professional. If you suffer from an eating disorder and want to get treatment, but have little time to devote to therapy, a shorter, time-limited program may be right for you. This workbook outlines a Guided Self-Help (GSH) program based on the principles of CBT. Although sessions with a therapist or clinician are required, there are usually no more than 12 and each one is only 25 minutes long. You will do much of the treatment on your own using the workbook as your guide. You will learn and practice the skills you need to overcome your eating disorder and establish healthy habits, while consulting with your therapist for encouragement and support. Through daily self-monitoring of your eating patterns, and strategies such as challenging negative thoughts and formal problem-solving, you will reduce your desire to binge and purge. GSH is hard work, but the benefits are well worth it. If you have the desire and the drive, you can use this workbook to eliminate your eating disorder once and for all.

The fresh perspective will also appeal to mental health professionals and anyone else working in the field.

This compelling memoir not only presents a stark look at the devastating effects of eating disorders but also offers a poignant message of hope, resilience, and the remarkable strength of the human spirit. Emma Lawson, a resilient survivor, takes readers on an intimate journey through her tumultuous struggle with her body and food. Raised in a seemingly perfect family, Emma was a young woman who, from the outside, seemed to have it all. However, beneath this façade, she was grappling with demons that would lead her down a path of self-destruction. From the first signs of her eating disorder, Emma gives readers an authentic portrayal of the mental and physical battles she faced. She delves into the societal pressures, self-inflicted expectations, and emotional turmoil that fueled her disorder. The narrative vividly depicts the harsh reality of living with an eating disorder, the isolation it creates, and the toll it takes on one's health and life. But this is not just a story of struggle—it is also a tale of redemption and resilience. Emma bravely shares her journey towards recovery, from her lowest points to her decision to seek help, and the grueling process of healing that followed. She discusses her triumphs and setbacks, demonstrating that recovery is not a linear path, but one marked by persistence and courage. The heart of Emma's story lies in her transformation. Through her experience, she learns the power of self-love, the importance of mental health, and the value of support. She learns to appreciate her body, not as an object of scrutiny, but as a vessel that holds her strength and spirit. And she finds a new purpose: to use her past to ignite change, challenge stigma, and help others facing similar struggles.

It is a compelling narrative that resonates with courage, strength, and the indomitable power of the human spirit. It reminds us that even in the face of overwhelming odds, recovery is possible, and a brighter, healthier future awaits. The book's final chapters serve as a powerful testament to the transformative power of resilience. Emma shares how she turned her struggles into strength, finding a renewed sense of purpose. She depicts her life post-recovery, not as a return to 'normal', but as the beginning of a new chapter—one marked by self-love, acceptance, and advocacy. In "Overcoming Eating Disorders and Body Image - A Survivor's Story," Emma Lawson has woven a compelling narrative filled with pain, struggle, resilience, and ultimately, triumph. It serves as a guiding light for those in the throes of similar battles, providing them with a roadmap to recovery, and the assurance that they are not alone.

Download or read book Overcoming Worries About Body Image and Eating written by Anne Stewart and published by Robinson. This book was released on 2024-07-11 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most teenagers worry about their body and appearance at some point, and some may try to alter their eating in order to change their weight or shape. If you are spending a lot of time worrying about how you look or what you are eating, it can become overwhelming and have a big impact on your life. The aim of this book is to help you to understand a bit more about these worries, what you can do about them and, most importantly, how you can develop a healthy relationship with your body and with food. If these worries take hold, there is a risk of developing an eating disorder or becoming depressed. Eating disorders can have a huge and negative impact on your physical health, your emotional wellbeing, your relationships and social life. They can take control of your mind and body, which makes it difficult to feel motivated to recover, and it can be a long and difficult journey to get back on track, so it's better to tackle these worries early on. Written by clinicians with many years of experience working in specialist eating disorder services for children and adolescents, this book follows an approach called cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), which is a really useful way of helping us to make sense of our experiences and overcome the difficulties that we face. CBT is an evidence-based approach, which means that lots of research has been done to evaluate it and show that it can be helpful. The book includes help and support on: · Adolescent development, how we make sense of our experiences, healthy eating and how to look after yourself during the teenage years. · How you can stop body image and eating difficulties taking hold including ideas for feeling good about yourself, dealing with stress and managing social media. There is a chapter which focuses on issues for boys/young men. · How to get help from family, friends or professionals if you are struggling. There is also a chapter for parents/carers and families with suggestions on how they can help. Overcoming for Teenagers is a series to support young people through common mental health issues during adolescence, using scientific techniques that have been proven to work.

Book excerpt: Is it possible to live a life of victory over pain? How can I know if I am headed in the right direction or if I need to make a change? Why does it seem like those who do good suffer the most, and those who don't appear to get away? Why should I not give up?

In Overcoming Pain, you'll learn and perhaps be reminded of the principles from God's Word that will enable you to walk joyfully in the overcoming lifestyle. No matter what has happened in your past, you are facing in your present, or will come in your future, you can live as the head and not the tail; above only and not beneath! Rev. Dr. Norman E.
