Appetites
Author: Caroline Knapp
Publisher: ReadHowYouWant.com
ISBN: 1458716465
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 326
Book Description
What looks like a consciously altruistic effort to encapsulate one woman's entire life into lessons for the benefit of womankind may be just that: after divulging every gruesome detail of her spiral into anorexia and subsequent self-discoveries in this memoir, Knapp died of lung cancer last June at age 42. Similar in tone to her previous Drinking: A Love Story, this work is candid and persuasive enough to reach many women with analogous problems. But it's more than one woman's tragic story; multitudinous interviews with women with eating disorders, excerpts from classic feminist texts and sociological statistics lend credence and categorize the book under cultural studies as much as self-help. Knapp hypothesizes that the feminists who came after the revolutionary 1960s, herself included, were stifled rather than empowered by the overwhelming choices before them. They gained ''the freedom to hunger and to satisfy hunger in all its varied forms.'' Unfortunately, writes Knapp, size-obsessed fashion magazines and other social messages contradict a woman's right to desire, contributing to the rise in eating disorders and other illnesses. Knapp observes an aspect of the backlash against the feminist movement: when ''women were demanding the right to take up more space in the world,'' they were being told by a still patriarchal society ''to grow physically smaller.'' Though Knapp admits it's ''easier to worry about the body than the soul,'' she hopes creating a dialogue about anorexia will enable all women to nourish both.

Languages : en
Pages : 311
Book Description
Eating is an innate skill that marketing schemes and diet culture have overcomplicated. In recent decades, we have begun overthinking our food, which has led to chronic dieting, disordered eating, body distrust, and epidemic levels of confusion about the best way to feed ourselves and our families. We can raise kids with confidence in their food and bodies from baby’s first bite! We are all Born to Eat, and it seems only natural for us to start at the beginning—with our babies. When babies show signs of readiness for solid foods, they can eat almost everything the family eats and become competent, happy eaters. By honoring self-regulation and using a family food foundation, we can support an intuitive eating approach for everyone around the table. With a focus on self-feeding and a baby-led weaning approach, nutritionists and wellness experts Leslie Schilling and Wendy Jo Peterson provide age-based advice, step-by-step instructions, self-care help for parents, and easy recipes to ensure that your infant is introduced to solid, tasty food as early as possible. It’s time to kick diet culture out of our homes!

Pages : 179
Book Description
In Carnal Appetites, Elspeth Probyn charts the explosion of interest in food - from the cults that spring up around celebrity chefs, to our love/hate relationship with fast food, our fetishization of food and sex, and the impact of our modes of consumption on our identities. 'You are what you eat' the saying goes, but is the tenet truer than ever? As the range of food options proliferates in the West, our food choices become inextricably linked with our lives and lifestyles. Probyn also tackles issues that trouble society, asking questions about the nature of appetite, desire, greed and pleasure, and shedding light on subjects including: fast food, vegetarianism, food sex, cannibalism, forced feeding, and fat politics.

Ancestral Appetites
Author: Kristen J. Gremillion
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1139498886
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 197
Book Description
This book explores the relationship between prehistoric people and their food - what they ate, why they ate it and how researchers have pieced together the story of past foodways from material traces. Contemporary human food traditions encompass a seemingly infinite variety, but all are essentially strategies for meeting basic nutritional needs developed over millions of years. Humans are designed by evolution to adjust our feeding behaviour and food technology to meet the demands of a wide range of environments through a combination of social and experiential learning. In this book, Kristen J. Gremillion demonstrates how these evolutionary processes have shaped the diversification of human diet over several million years of prehistory. She draws on evidence extracted from the material remains that provide the only direct evidence of how people procured, prepared, presented and consumed food in prehistoric times.

Book Description
There were all these maddening permutations of what could be that were not to be ignored....Yet, there was also a stunning beauty to all of this that was so profound that one could not help but love every facet of every conceivability, whether realized or beyond reach. There was so much to capture even in stillness that was akin to grasping at grains of sand so fine as to elude the grip-it was all so intricate, so overwhelming and so rapid, and nothing ever ceased in its glorious transformation...There was an exhilaration in being engrossed in the details that evaded capture and in being oneself ensconced in constant flux so as to surrender without recourse to what was to come...There is no instance that ever becomes the destination, no circumstance the definitive possibility, and one, for that very fact, could scarcely help but be filled with a heartening love for all of creation...The Moment, after all, was Always and thus there was no 'before, ' no instance preceding the instance

Growing a Courageous Heart
Author: Wendy J. Mahill
Publisher: Xulon Press
ISBN: 1607916096
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 250
Book Description
Growing a Courageous Heart is a Christ-centered curriculum for women in recovery for all types of eating disorders. It provides clear definitions of eating disorders and explores the physical damage they cause, their protective denial systems, their root causes, and their cognitive processes. It also explores, emotional, relational and spiritual damage caused by eating disorders and provides practical tools for overcoming them. The curriculum could be used in support groups or in one-one therapy sessions. Even those who struggle with disordered eating patterns and body image problems would also benefit from studying this material. This curriculum will help eating disorder survivors grow in their relationship with God and with others as they courageously face fears concerning food, relationships, life, and body image. It'll help remove the shame of having eating disorders as women learn to depend on God for healing in this area of their lives. "Growing a Courageous Heart is packed with incredible material to assist those suffering with disordered eating. Wendy addresses the physical, emotional, cognitive, and spiritual struggles that people face daily. While Growing a Courageous Heart is user friendly, it addresses the deeper complexities unique to eating disorders. Many of my clients have successfully worked through the book, some individually and others in a group setting. I highly recommend Wendy's book for those needing help to overcome disordered eating patterns." Nancy Keller, MFT "Wendy Mahill has created another great tool for healing. Just like Growing A Passionate Heart for sexual abuse, Growing A Courageous Heart for eating disorders is thorough, grace-filled, and a giant step on the road to healing and living free."
