"Using food as the doorway to understanding yourself can lead to unimaginable beauty and openness and a kind of awakening...I think we all have a hunger that is hard to name."
"We treat our bodies as if they are the enemy and the only acceptable outcome is annihilation. Our deeply ingrained belief is that hatred and torture work. And although I've never met anyone - not one person - for whom warring with their bodies led to long-lasting change, we continue to believe that with a little more self-disgust, we'll prevail. But the truth is that kindness, not hatred, is the answer. The shape of your body obeys the shape of your beliefs about love, value, and possibility. To change your body, you must first understand that which is shaping it. Not fight it. Not force it. Not deprive it. Not shame it."
"Eat what you want when you're hungry and feel what you feel when you're not."
