A Step-by-Step Program to Lose Weight with Loving-Kindness

Self-Love: Your Greatest Guide on the Path to Healthy Weight

The secret to sustainable weight loss isn't counting calories or depriving yourself at the dinner table. Jean Fain tells us it's about cultivating awareness and self-acceptance wherever you are. With The Self-Compassion Diet, this Harvard Medical School-affiliated psychotherapist prescribes a practical program for transforming the way you think and feel about food and your whole self - a shift that, paradoxically, inspires physical change.

Combining loving-kindness, self-hypnosis, and other winning weight-loss strategies, The Self-Compassion Diet is available in two complementary formats to help you naturally progress toward genuine self-acceptance and a healthy, sustainable weight.

With more than 30 different tools including quizzes, breathing exercises, and visualizations, the book explores four powerful weight-loss methods. The audio edition guides you through 11 key practices described in the book. Used together, this powerful combination can speed learning and boost success. Additional topics include:

-- How to appreciate the everyday activity of eating, and learn to trust your body's signals that it's nourished

-- Gradual change - a guided visualization for developing mindful eating habits

-- A meditation for getting to know the diet coach who knows you best - your compassionate inner advisor

"Most dieters try to 'kill cravings' and break habits with self-discipline," teaches Fain. "Self-kindness can help quiet the shame that traditional diets instill, and establish a harmonious relationship with food." The Self-Compassion Diet book and audio offer a treasury of heart-opening mind-body teachings and practices for improving the way you live, breathe, and eat.

DailyOM Course Spotlight

Heal Your Money Karma
by Spencer Sherman & Brent Kessel

Money has remained in shadow for so long that when we consciously bring it into the light and simply acknowledge the darkness, shame, and fear that we have around money, we begin to transform our old patterns. Being in denial, obsession, or resistance with any of our patterns, keeps them firmly in place. The spiritual tools are now available for us to challenge our initiation into money and undo our ancestral conditioning. In place of worn money beliefs and undermining behaviors, we can access and affirm beliefs and behaviors which align with who we are today. This 8-week course on healing the money life that you inherited from your parents (which they inherited from their parents, and so on…). In just 8 weeks, you can stop the karmic repetition of stressful and energy-leaking thoughts and behaviors around money. You can forge a new relationship with money based on your current spiritual values. You can discover and reclaim your true inheritance: wisdom, prosperity, joy, con! sciousness, and generosity.
