Editorial Reviews

A thorough, wise, and loving contribution to the complexities and wonder of our relationship to food, bodies, and self-worth.
-Geneen Roth, New York Times best-selling author Women Food and God and This Messy Magnificent Life 

She discovered, as I did, that handling your weight issues is as much as spiritual practice as it is physical or emotional . . . Wherever you are in this process, I think you will ­find Samantha's book a source of wisdom and a healing for your heart.
-Gay Hendricks, Ph.D., author of The Big Leap and Conscious Loving 

Not just a book, it's a movement . . . This is a must read for anyone who has ever experienced food and body struggles and craves sustainable transformation at a deep level.
-John Assaraf, CEO NeuroGym and featured in The Secret
