stop eating, fast for 3 days, enjoy>
I love what she says about fixing oneself as a hopeless task. Ah, that is so familiar. I laughed out loud. Thanks, Geneen.
Loved this interview! Will definitely look into her newest book. I expected to hear more about food, but it didn’t matter because the content was nourishing. Thank you!
I also laughed out loud, wonderful Geneen Roth, what a relief to just acxcewpt that and be compassioned about ourselvces knowing we cant go back tyo change our story, and at the same time, we can become concious in our lives and this implies to be eating conciously too…Thank you so much!!!
I love the idea of appreciating the possibilities available in our lives and the feeling that there is hope from starting where we are and learning from our daily experience of ourselves. Tonight I will focus on what is right in my life and be thankful I am still learning to move ahead in this my 69th year…better late than never!
Maybe instead of thinking of what we’re doing as fixing ourselves, we should think of it as just unraveling old patterns that aren’t helpful for where we are today. I’ve been working on my emotional overeating for 3 1/2 years now, I’m always learning and enjoy watching where it’s taking me. Thank you for the talk.
It is EXHAUSTING to try to “fix” myself. But I love the idea that anything, food, work, relationships, can give us clues about ourselves and how we want to live our lives. Thank you!
What a joy! Hearing the simple truth of “how you eat is how you feel about yourself” cut to the core. Such a pleasant and skillful teaching. Thank you!
Mindful eating is not the same as eating mindfully.
Eating mindfully is an exercise that is part of an in itself complete set of exercises to be found in a Buddhist resource called Abhidhamma Sutta, the direct path to awakening and liberation. xx
Enjoyed different analogies and laughed lol as we cant be returned for a new model but we can alter our behavior and life style. Thank you for u wisdom. Look forward to reading more of your writings
When I developed 2 cancers, I read mainstream literature on nutrition and disease. The type of cancers I had was worsened by estrogen substance in food and estrogen like plastics, BPA, as well as fat. I eventually transitioned to a whole food plant based diet(WFPBD). Then I realized what was harming me was harming the planet. Meat production causes more pollution than all transportation combined and even some plant based food(Palm and coconut oils as bad as lard) cause destruction of jungles and cardiovascular disease. My compassion for the world has grown dramatically. I also decided to live a very simple life. I am so much happier with far less. I really enjoy my food and my wife and I work together to make foods from scratch. We turn off all screens and devices eating slowly, mindfully, and together. I have survived 18 years though my short term survival prognosis was almost zero. Not only am I cancer free, but have lost 28 pounds without trying, my LDL dropped to 65, but, more importantly, am healthier, happier, and still surf, play singles tennis, hike, and remain very active, not owning a car, despite my history and being age 69.

Bon appetitte! ” may your medicine be your food and your food your medicine”
“Take the blinders off” Thank you Geneen, I enjoyed listening.
Its clear that Roth has polished the messages in her books. Good food for thought. thank you.
I loved what you said about holding your self better than fixing yourself! What a different perspective! Thank you
Really helpful inputs, thoughts and practises for people who struggle with eating disorders. Food for thought, thank you!
Its a new idea for me. Thanks for relating food with, body, mind and lifestyle.
In therapy for 30 years and was no better? Really? If one doesn’t start to feel significantly better after 4 sessions, then I would suggest one is not with the right psychotherapist for you. Don’t waste your money. Unless one is suffering with for example severe depression, bipolar, child sexual abuse or schizophrenia then one is likely to know after 1-3 sessions if things are starting to shift. It is so important to find the right professional for you. One may find it useful to go back to a good psychotherapist after 1-5 years to address another problem and again that should be dealt with in between 4-8 weeks. I think it would be a shame to reject all the caring professions because of one bad experience. I would suggest trying a Psychologist/Psychotherapist who is also qualified in NLP or Mindfulness.
