About this listen

 Embraced by Oprah, the #1 New York Times bestselling guide that explains the connection between eating and emotion from Geneen Roth—noted authority on mindful eating.

No matter how sophisticated or wealthy or broke or enlightened you are, how you eat tells all.

After three decades of studying, teaching, and writing about our compulsions with food, bestselling author Geneen Roth adds a powerful new dimension to her work in Women Food and God. She begins with her most basic concept: the way you eat is inseparable from your core beliefs about being alive. Your relationship with food is an exact mirror of your feelings about love, fear, anger, meaning, transformation, and, yes, even God.

A timeless and seminal work, Women Food and God shows how going beyond the food and the feelings takes you deeper into realms of spirit and soul—to the bright center of your own life.

this is a book I will listen to several times. geneen is so knowledgeable, honest, thought provoking and helpful. I feel I have learned so much just from listening and would recommend this to anyone who has issues with eating. Geneen really knows her subject matter and makes it very accessible to all with the hint at humour every so often, making it very readable/listenable. thank you geneen

I'm really surprised this audiobook has only one 3 star rating, with no written explanation! I loved her narrating style for starters, and the content of the book is equally as enthralling. If you have even a slightly troubled relationship with food (so basically, all serial dieters/weight conscious folks!) this book will give you great insight into the possible causes, as well as some useful advice. I think I found the book more useful based on the fact I listened in conjunction with other material of a similar nature - but believe me, if you are tired of unsuccessfully dieting then give this book a try!!

improve your relationship with food!

I found this book to be of immense help. I plan to listen to it as many times as it takes to internalize the message that: diets DO NOT work. They only work for the diet industry who are making millions out of the suffering of the millions of people who struggle with their weight. Her message is one of learning to really listen to the messages the body so clearly sends if we can sit still long enough to hear. Geneen Roth has been there and done it all. She knows what she is talking about and I recommend this to you.

…was the word I uttered with tears in my eyes when the recording ended. I am not overweight but I am obsessed with food, having spent a lifetime trying to exert some control through what I put in my mouth. Enough. It’s time to get present and listen to what I have to say, with kindness. Thank you for writing this book Geneen.

I loved this book, it has given me a path to changing my compulsive eating that has been such a depressing part of my life. I love how it's read, and she is a wonderful writer. She sounds like an inspiring, funny friend- which is just what you need I think when battling the self sabotage of compulsive eating.

Wonderful life changing book
