    Little, Brown Book Group The Compassionate Mind Approach to Beating Overeating: Series editor, Paul Gilbert

    Out of stock

    This self-help book explores the problems created by having ready access to high fat foods designed to taste good. Because we evolved in conditions of relative scarcity we have few natural food inhibitors and so most diet books try to encourage people to inhibit their eating by highly rule governed behaviours which have to be constantly worked at. However, this can lead to various forms of self-criticism which can undermine efforts at self-control. As a result our relationship with eating can be complex, multifaceted and problematic.Beating Overeating Using Compassion Focused Therapy uses Compassion Focused Therapy - a groundbreaking new therapeutic approach - to understand and work with our urges and passions for food. We can learn to enjoy and accept food and pay attention to our biological and emotional needs. This book is for people who have tried diets and found that they don't work and will enable the reader to have a healthier and happier relationship with food and their body.Topics covered: The relationship between our brains and food, the evolutionary background to finding, conserving and eating food How too much or too little food affects the brain, why diets don't work, factors affecting our eating behaviour (tastes, stress, comfort, etc) Body shape and culture Developing an inner compassion for one's relationship with food - recognising what we need and what is helpful

Yoga Therapist (AIYT), Senior Yoga Teacher (E-RYT500), Professional Structural Integrator (IASI) MSS (Master of Spiritual Sciences).In her engaging and compassionate writing style Charlotte Watts brings home an ancient wisdom shared by Eastern and Western medicine: vitality is rooted in a healthy gut. The complex topic of digestive health is expertly described in a clear and concise yet holistic and inclusive manner. Her message is of practical value for all of us, regardless of our current gut feeling. I particularly enjoy the way in which Charlotte skilfully builds bridges from ancient yogic and Ayurvedic insights to contemporary yoga practices that are informed by research and myofascial anatomy. In the way Charlotte describes and prescribes the asanas, yoga is both nourishment and medicine. Her recommended practice will strengthen a person's resources somatically. By following her guidance, we may also gaininteroceptive clarity that will benefit us emotionally and socially.

    Book SynopsisLike many of us, Toni Terry has tried out every fitness and diet fad going. From gym memberships to detoxes, her characteristic determination got her through the punishing workouts and regimes. And yet, after a month or a year, she always got bored; something was missing and she wasn't quite achieving the results she'd hoped for. What changed and turned her into the social media phenomenon she is today was a whole new approach to fitness and eating well. And what was the magic ingredient? People. Feeling intimidated at the thought of working out on her own with a personal trainer, she hit on the idea of asking her friends to join her. As soon as she started exercising with friends and family, Toni not only started enjoying herself, she also grew more motivated, got the body she always wanted, and felt healthier and happier than ever before. The Buddy Workout will chronicle Toni's journey from her battle with a serious back condition as a teenager, to busy family life with world-class footballer John Terry and her passion for fitness and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Toni's easy-to-follow fitness programme includes workouts she does on a regular basis with her trainer Bradley Simmonds, and she'll also provide ideas for 5-minute workouts you can build into your busy life, top tips for keeping motivated and looking your best, as well as delicious and nutritious recipes you can share with family and friends.Trade ReviewI work out with Toni every week and I have to say I really look forward to our sessions together. We work really hard, motivate and push each other through the hard stuff, but best of all we laugh - a lot. Toni is the best workout buddy, totally inspirational and a real friend. -- Claire FewingsToni's been such a big motivation. She's helped me on my weight loss journey by supporting me through our training sessions with Bradley. We've now become workout buddies and great friends. I love training together and enjoying healthy, delicious food afterwards. -- Connie SimmondsTraining with Toni has been an absolute pleasure. Right from the outset I could see that she was incredibly determined and up for a challenge. The key I believe for Toni is that she enjoys her workouts, varies the exercise she does, involves her family and friends, and, by eating healthily, keeps in fantastic shape. -- Bradley SimmondsWe love being an active family and Toni has always been a great inspiration to me and our children Georgie and Summer. Toni has worked so hard to achieve her goals and I'm consistently in awe of how she's able to juggle family life with all of her training and other commitments. Being woken by the sound of the treadmill at 6am is a regular occurrence in the Terry household and she always makes sure we have a healthy breakfast before leaving for school or football. It's fantastic to see all of her hard work, enthusiasm and commitment to her health and fitness result in this book, one that I am sure will help inspire so many people. Toni is the perfect wife, mother and the rock of our family, and we are so proud of what she's achieved. -- John Terry

    Book SynopsisDecolonizing Data explores how ongoing structures of colonialization negatively impact the well-being of Indigenous peoples and communities across Canada, resulting in persistent health inequalities. In addressing the social dimensions of health, particularly as they affect Indigenous peoples and BIPOC communities, Decolonizing Data asks, Should these groups be given priority for future health policy considerations?Decolonizing Data provides a deeper understanding of the social dimensions of health as applied to Indigenous peoples, who have been historically underfunded in and excluded from health services, programs, and quality of care; this inequality has most recently been seen during the COVID-19 pandemic.Drawing on both western and Indigenous methodologies, this unique scholarly contribution takes both a sociological perspective and the "two-eyed seeing" approach to research methods.

Additionally, it moves the conversation toward their use in prevention and cure. There are very limited existing textbooks like this on the market, aside from a recently published title, Probiotics for Human Nutrition in Health and Disease, de Souza et al. (Elsevier, 2022), making comparison difficult. I noted grammatical errors and inconsistencies across sections, likely because a different group of researchers authored each chapter.

Despite the fact that we are all, on average, quite overweight, our cultural media promotes a "cult of the thin and beautiful". All of us are bombarded with images and messages all day that lead many to unhealthful obsessions with the shape of their bodies. At best, these body-image issues can be unpleasant and distracting from the goal of being healthy and happy. At worst they can lead to serious mental health problems like body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) or eating disorders such as anorexia or bulimia nervosa.This revised edition of a classic workbook presents a complete approach to dealing with body image issues. It includes new evidence that confirms the effectiveness of its cognitive behavioural approach. The book presents new discussions of cosmetic surgery, weight loss, and other body-fixing options, as well as information for persons with physically disfiguring conditions. A major shift in this edition orients this book with others grounded in the tradition of mindfulness and acceptance.

    Book SynopsisYou can fake authenticity. But in this digitally saturated age, your customers will see through any misdirection. As we are constantly on our electronic devices, we have come to distrust print media and traditional PR. Stephen Denny and Paul Leinberger have found that people now want to make their own decisions based on raw footage, real-time updates and unfiltered livestreams. How, then, do marketing executives and others gain consumer trust? These Fortune 500 consultants present the answer in UNFILTERED MARKETING. Drawing on four years of global research, authors, Denny and Leinberger, have developed a comprehensive five-step process for successfully rehumanising the digital brand experience and gaining customer loyalty. To follow it, companies must understand that consumers are (1) seeking control in an out-of-control world and executives must rework their brand to be (2) unscripted (3) in-process and (4) in-context, in order to master (5) heroic credibility (brands standing by their philosophy and values). Abiding by these rules, businesses follow in the successful footsteps of brands like Patagonia, T-Mobile, adidas, GoDaddy and others.
