Comer Sin Hambre: Por Qué Sentimos Ansiedad Por La Comida Y Cómo Dejar de Hacerlo / The Hunger Habit - by Judson Brewer (Paperback)

About the Book

"A program proven to heal our relationship with food and our bodies.Anyone who struggles with overeating knows what it's like to feel out of control and to feel the guilt attached to it. While ordinary anxiety feels like something that happens to us, the siren song of food cravings feels like something we should be able to control. The result is a toxic cocktail of shame and self-loathing that makes it impossible to change our behavior. The Hunger Habit is based on Judson Brewer's deeply researched plan proven to help us understand what is going on in our brains so that we can heal the shame and overcome overeating. The step-by-step program focuses on the power of awareness; there is no willpower, calorie-counting, or restricted eating. Setbacks are a good thing! The key is to learn how to work with our brains rather than to fight cravings, and to adopt an attitude of self-kindness rather than self-judgment."--

Book Synopsis

Un programa de 21 días basado en la neurociencia para mejorar nuestra relación con la comida de la mano de Judson Brewer, psiquiatra de fama mundial especializado en adicciones y autor bestseller.

Come esto y no aquello, cuenta las calorías, haz más ejercicio, esfuérzate... ¿Cuántos de estos mensajes dietéticos nos han hecho sentir culpables por nuestra dificultad a la hora de gestionar nuestra forma de comer? Basado en más de veinte años de investigación clínica y en la amplia experiencia del doctor Judson Brewer, Comer sin hambre es el método más sencillo y eficaz para mejorar nuestra alimentación.

Recurriendo al poder de la curiosidad y la autoconciencia, el acreditado programa de 21 días del doctor Brewer nos ayudará a reparar nuestra relación con la comida, a reiniciar nuestros detonantes alimentarios, a crear nuevos hábitos y a resolver cualquier cuestión personal de autoestima, ansiedad, vergüenza, ira o estrés. También nos enseñará a trabajar con nuestro cerebro en lugar de luchar contra los antojos, y descubriremos cómo aceptar las recaídas y cómo dejar de juzgarnos para adoptar una actitud más amable con nosotros mismos.

Comer sin hambre no es un libro de dietas: si comemos por estrés, si nos damos atracones, si comemos en exceso o si tenemos cualquier otro mal hábito, esta obra nos presenta una nueva manera de relacionarnos con la comida fomentada en la libertad y la ligereza que provienen del bienestar interior. El doctor Brewer nos descubre el antídoto definitivo a las dietas y al sentimiento de culpa hacia la comida.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A program proven to heal our relationship with food and our bodies from New York Times bestselling author of Unwinding Anxiety.

Sometimes it feels as if there are as many ways to struggle with food as there are foods to eat. Craving, habit, emotions, boredom, stress, anxiety, or just the simple fact that a box of donuts seems to be omnipresent in the break room (free food!) can lead to feeling out of control around food. While anxiety feels like something that happens to us, the pull of food seems like something we should be able to handle. After all, we have to eat! But it's not that simple. The result of this constant struggle--and then giving in or giving up--is a toxic cocktail of shame and self-judgment that makes it feel like it is impossible to change our behavior.

The Hunger Habit is based on Judson Brewer's deeply researched plan proven to help us understand what is going on in our brains so that we can heal the guilt and frustration we experience around eating. This is not a diet book pretending not to be a diet book. The step-by-step program focuses on training our brains to tap into awareness to change our relationship with food and eating--shifting it from fighting with ourselves to befriending our minds and bodies. There is no willpower, calorie-counting, or restricted eating. Setbacks are a good thing! The key is to learn how to work with our brains rather than resisting our impulses, and to adopt an attitude of self-kindness rather than self-judgment.

Grounded in cutting-edge neuroscience and Brewer's several decades of clinical practice as a psychiatrist, The Hunger Habit is both accessible and compassionate. It will finally help you break out of food jail and reclaim your life.
