In this European best seller, Joanna Kortink, a spiritual psychotherapist,
has formulated a unique therapy for the effective treatment of binge-eating
and an array of other eating disorders.

Having suffered from bulimia herself, Joanna has, through the use of
psychotherapy, creative expression, body training and natural medicine
devised a system of treatment that provides new insights into the nature
of eating disorders.

Basically, Joanna teaches that "eating differently starts with thinking
differently." And she provides some of her clients' profiles in which she
engages each one in a dialogue between the client and what she calls
"her inner saboteur." She also explains how you can increase vitality, find
the spirit, get back to basics and to learn how to listen to your body's signals,
all of which leads to increased energy and a comforting sense of self-forgiveness.

In this unique book, the reader will find tips for immediate self-action as well as
vital information for partners and friends of binge-eaters and those with other
eating disorders. Furthermore, Joanna's method will help the reader break the
endless lose-weight, gain-weight cycle as well as treat the blind compulsion of
eating out of stress.

Joanna Kortink has spent more than ten years as an advocate for women with
eating disorders. She lives in the Netherlands where she runs her center,
Artiva Food and Vitality Coaching.
