Overview

Savor your food, soothe difficult emotions, and enjoy every moment with powerful mindfulness practices! 

Do you turn to food when you’re feeling bored, depressed, or anxious? Do you judge your body for not fitting into some ideal shape or size? If so, you aren’t alone. Diet culture has sabotaged our relationship with food and our bodies. As a result, many of us are confused—attaching shame to our food choices and judging our bodies. It’s time to break free!

Savor Every Bite offers powerful mindfulness and compassion practices for soothing difficult emotions and cultivating positive coping strategies. From psychologist and mindful eating expert Lynn Rossy, this book provides daily tips and tools for whole-body healing—including how to eat mindfully, move your body in ways that feel delicious, and live with greater ease and joy.  

With this guide, you’ll learn mindfulness skills to help you navigate the difficulties of daily life and cultivate a lasting sense of calm, clarity, and profound happiness. It’s time to start savoring your life!
