You’re About to “Strike it Rich” In the Most Important Lottery on Earth…What does it feel like to strike it rich in the world of health and wellness? Does it mean improved sleep? What about being able to walk longer, enjoy a day out at the lake, or just keep up with the family on a lazy weekend? Health is wealth, no way around it. Striking it rich in health is always on your terms. What would better health mean to you, right now? Hold on to that answer, because this book will help you get to that destination. So, let’s get to the point: are you getting rich…or finding yourself struggling to keep your head above water? What does your health profit and loss statement really look like at the moment? If things aren’t as rosy as you would like them to be, you’re not alone. For decades, the health and fitness industry has been promising you riches, but giving you pocket change. You’ve probably run into things like, “Lose 20 pounds in 20 days,” “Guaranteed 6-pack in 6 weeks,” and “Drop three dress sizes in 4 weeks!” These are just some of the sneaky slogans that are siphoning away valuable health dollars, sometimes right before your very eyes! It’s old. It’s tiresome. It changes now. A Missing Piece, Now RevealedMainstream fitness programs have one major flaw: they only address one part of the greater health equation. It’s all physical, with little variation: just move a little more, eat a little less, and you’ll be on your way to a huge health jackpot. But what about the mind? The biggest mistake made in the pursuit of better health is not using your mind to the fullest. The human mind has far more to do with weight loss and developing a healthier lifestyle than it may seem at first glance. That’s exactly what this book will help you understand. When you pick up, The Overweight Mind: The Undeniable Truth Behind Why You're Not Losing Weight, you’ll learn how: *The very people you share your daily life with are keeping you fat (even when they “sound happy for you”)*Your own closely-held beliefs are stretching your belt (and the rest of your wardrobe)*The very thoughts that buzz noisily around your mind are slowly devouring your chances at being thin*The everyday words you say are adding pounds and inches*Habits you don’t even think twice about are affecting your health *The mindset you build – or disassemble – affects your physical health (for better or worse!)Beyond the BasicsThere’s more to it than just moving more. All the crunches in the world can’t move you towards the real gems of better health. Crash diets are only short-term, if they even work at all. Every single chapter in The Overweight Mind is designed to showcase your mind’s true potential and its role in your weight loss. Above all? No get thin quick schemes. No gimmicks. Health is wealth. Get ready to get rich.

The Overweight Mind and Body is a self-help guide to understanding the psychological issues that lead to overeating and weight gain. The book enables the reader to discover the psychological drives that lead to unwanted weight and to find ways of meeting those drives other than with food. It introduces a simple, user-friendly theory of Transactional Analysis to promote weight-related self-awareness. The author includes exercises that empower readers to uncover their own stories. She understands that, for many, carrying extra weight is emotionally and physically painful and so gently encourages readers to explore at their own level. She uses case studies to demonstrate the many unconscious influences on one’s eating and how, when people discover and resolve these influences, they no longer need extra food. Reading them shows that "you are not alone". This book will also be of interest to, and a useful guide for, practitioners in the caring professions who work with clients struggling with eating and overweight.

The author draws a useful distinction between the need to eat and the need to maintain a large body size, and addresses both LT obesity and ST weight gain.

We live at a time when knowledge of the world is all right there on our smart phones. Yet we persist in going through life trying to get as much knowledge, as many facts and arguments and opinions and predictions, into our heads-and being tested and evaluated and judged by how much we know. Being in the world as a knower keeps us stuck, Holzman says. It constrains creativity and risk taking, keeps us and our dreams small, stops us from learning new things, and stifles our capacity to create new possibilities for ourselves, families, communities and the entire world. For that, she says, we need a new form of life - something she calls "non-knowing growing." That's the invitation of The Overweight Brain - offering a simple but radical departure - an approach to using all we are (and all we know) to make a better world.

Our planet is in the grip of an obesity pandemic. More than a billion people worldwide are overweight and over 600 million are obese. We live in an obesogenic environment in which it is much easier to get fat than to stay fit. How has this come to be? Who is to blame? What can we do? In Fat Planet, Dr David Lewis and Dr Margaret Leitch examine the social and psychological causes of the obesity pandemic in order to answer these questions. They use ground-breaking research to highlight the behaviour of corporations that relentlessly promote foods high in sugar, fat and salt, and show that these ‘junk’ foods have shockingly similar neurological effects to hard drugs. They consider the prevalence of food cues which unconsciously stimulate our desire to consume. And they debunk the myths of fad diets and slimming pills, suggesting practical, easily implemented strategies for sustainable weight loss. The evidence is clear: our problem with obesity must be addressed or we will face catastrophic consequences. It is not too late to change.
