The Diet Trap - Jason Lillis - Bog - New Harbinger Publications - Plusbog.dk

Have you tried every diet or weight loss plan under the sun, but still can''t manage to lose weight and keep it off? You aren''t alone. Each year, Americans spend billions of dollars on weight-loss products, yet we continue to have the highest obesity rate in the world. After trying and failing countless times, you have to begin to wonder, "What am I doing wrong?"The problem with most fad diets is that they only attack the symptom of the problem, not the cause. No matter how much you try to deny yourself the food you crave, you always end up reverting back to bad habits. You might even lose weight initially, but more often than not you''ll gain it back-with a couple extra pounds to boot! In order to make real change in your life, you need to change the way you think about food, weight, and what''s most important to you. The Diet Trap offers proven-effective methods based in acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) to help you develop mindful eating habits, self-compassion, and a greater understanding of what it means to live a valued life. ACT is a values-based therapy that has been proven effective for the treatment of weight loss. Because ACT encourages you to accept and experience uncomfortable emotions-rather than succumb to emotional eating-it helps you to stay on your path to lose weight, while also helping you develop compassion toward yourself, no matter how much you weigh.Written by two researchers in the field of ACT, this book offers evidence-based solutions to help you fundamentally change the way you think about food, so that you can successfully lose weight, get healthy, and live a happy, fulfilling life without costly and frustrating fad diets.

But I Deserve This Chocolate! - Susan Albers - Bog - New Harbinger Publications - Plusbog.dk

From bestselling author and mindful eating expert Susan Albers.So many people are motivated to lose weight, yet most will fail to maintain healthy eating and lifestyle habits or will succeed for a time, but eventually regain the weight they lose. Many more are diagnosed with diseases that can be easily controlled with diet and lifestyle changes that can be difficult to make. Pervasive, insistent thoughts such as "I deserve this!" and "I''m buying these chips for the kids, not for me," and discouraging, self-critical thoughts like "Who cares? I''m never going to lose this weight," keep many people in the habit of unhealthy eating. But I Deserve This Chocolate! targets the fifty most common self-sabotaging thoughts and habits. Each of the fifty chapters explains the mentality behind a particular excuse and offers readers a mindfulness exercise for rerouting the thought into a more positive mentality toward oneself and food. This pocket guide is ideal for readers who want to lose weight, those who simply want to eat more healthfully, or people who must maintain restricted diets due to allergies, diabetes, and other health issues.

The Food Addiction Recovery Workbook - Carolyn Coker Ross - Bog - New Harbinger Publications - Plusbog.dk

Isn''t it time you got off the diet treadmill? In The Food Addiction Recovery Workbook, physician Carolyn Coker Ross offers the proven-effective Anchor Program™ to help you curb cravings, end body dissatisfaction, manage stress and emotions without food, and truly satisfy your soul. If you''re struggling with obesity or food addiction, you''ve probably been told that you must deprive yourself of certain foods in order to lose weight. You may have also been convinced-by the media and by our culture-that if you finally become thin your life will be better, you''ll be happier, and your suffering will come to an end. The problem is-it''s not all about the food. It''s about how food is used to self-soothe, to numb ourselves against the pain of living or to cope with stress and unresolved emotions. Even as your waist whittles away, the problems that caused your food addiction won''t disappear.The Anchor Program™ approach detailed in this workbook is not about dieting. It''s about being anchored to your true, authentic self. When you find your unique anchor, you will relate better to your body, you will know intuitively how to feed your body, and you will reach the weight that''s right for you. Anyone who''s been on the diet treadmill-losing and regaining lost weight-will admit that losing weight doesn''t instantly bring health or happiness. That''s because losing weight is a red herring for the real issue, the misuse of food to solve a problem that has nothing to do with food.This book offers a whole-person approach that blends practical information on managing stress and regulating emotions without relying on food. If you''re ready to uncover the true cause of your food addiction, you''ll finally be able to embrace a balanced diet and reach the weight that''s right for you.

The Smoke-Free Smoke Break - Pavel G. Somov - Bog - New Harbinger Publications - Plusbog.dk

The millions of people who smoke know that the ritual of smoke breaks is relaxing and comforting-almost as addictive as the nicotine itself. Those who make the decision to quit this unhealthy and expensive habit do not only have their nicotine addiction to contend with, but also lose the relaxing breaks that may help them keep perspective throughout the day. Due to this twofold loss, many people fail to maintain a smoke-free lifestyle, or go years without smoking only to pick up a cigarette when a particularly stressful situation leaves them desperate for a way to cope. In The Smoke-Free Smoke Break , Pavel Somov and Marla Somova present a gradual plan for quitting smoking once and for all by keeping the smoke breaks, but replacing the tobacco with mindfulness exercises and positive reinforcement techniques that work as well or better than cigarettes for calming and soothing readers in stressful times. First, readers practice mindful smoking to increase their present-moment awareness while using cigarettes. Then readers work on cutting down nicotine use, incorporating nicotine patches and other quitting devices, if they choose. Finally, readers quit nicotine entirely, while keeping the mindfulness exercises and breaks as part of their daily routine. The authors have used this program successfully with many smokers and have found that the key component of this program-teaching smokers methods for coping withdrawal before they quit-is essential to the success of the smoke-free smoke break method.

Like that unbendable branch, many of us refuse to be in harmony with the changes around us, and it is out of this conflict that much of our stress is created.As with most emotions, stress is a natural part of life, but it must be carefully managed in order to keep a sense of balance.

Anxiety, depression, headaches, high blood pressure, heart problems, and even diabetes can all be caused or exacerbated by stress. In order to live a healthy life, you need to make a change.In The Tao of Stress , an expert in Taoist psychology presents daily meditative skills and movement exercises that can help you simplify your life, fight fatigue, and calm a busy mind. After learning the basics of the Taoist approach to stress management, you will be able to put theory into practice through the various simple exercises and activities offered in this book.

The Dialectical Behavior Therapy Skills Workbook for PTSD - Kirby Reutter - Bog - New Harbinger Publications - Plusbog.dk

This pragmatic workbook offers evidence-based skills grounded in dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT) to help you find lasting relief from trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

So, how can you start healing? With this powerful and proven-effective workbook, you''ll find practical exercises for overcoming trauma using mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness, emotion regulation and distress tolerance. You''ll learn how to be present in the moment and identity the things that trigger your trauma. You''ll also find activities and exercises to help you cope with stress, manage intense emotions, navigate conflict with others and change unhealthy thought patterns that keep you stuck. Finally, you''ll find practical materials for review and closure, so you can take what you''ve learned out into the world with you. If you''re ready to move past your trauma and start living your life again, this workbook will help guide you, one step at a time. The practical interventions in this guide can be used on their own or in conjunction with therapy.
