Food, love it or hate it, the simple fact is, you cannot live without it! Your relationship with food, like with a mate, can be positive or negative and it will have its ups and its downs. What can you do to get the most out of your relationship with food, and how can you take control of that relationship without having food control you? These and many other pertinent questions are answered in Freedom in Your Relationship with Food: An Everyday Guide. This book was written by Myra Lewin, a teacher of yoga and Ayurveda (a natural form of medicine developed in India) and a professional mediator and counselor.

Within this book, Lewin teaches you how to slow down and to create a healthy and harmonious relationship with food. Most of us have an 'artificial' relationship with food based upon an unhealthy self-image and the desire for convenience that is propelled by advertising and unrealistic expectations. Lewin shows you how to separate yourself from this artificial relationship, and how to build a healthy relationship with food, a relationship built upon realistic expectations and healthy eating habits. She also examines how food can be used as a vehicle for self-healing and how by changing what you eat can have a positive impact on your health.

>From shopping to preparation, Lewin examines every aspect of our relationship with food, and teaches you what foods you should strive to include in your diet, and which to avoid. She has also included helpful meditation and breathing exercises that will help you connect with your body and excise unhealthy eating habits. Also included are an assortment of healthy and tasty recipes that will provide you with a solid foundation upon which to build your new relationship with food.

Lewin's advice will not only help you to improve your overall diet, but also your health and self-image. You'll also find that by following the advice in this book that you will be achieving a healthy lifestyle and that the consumption of food will take on spiritual aspects. There is an old saying that "You are what you eat!" When you eat healthily, you feel better, look better, and your general health will improve. In addition, you will likely find that once you start really thinking about not only what you eat, but how the food you eat is grown and even created, you will also start taking a more serious look at your body and your health. Your new diet will make you fell better and soon you will become more active, your stress levels will drop, your mood will improve, and your overall outlook on life will become more positive.
