It is a daily undertaking – a morning shot of coffee, an absentminded sandwich at your desk, a hastily assembled dinner with the remnants from the fridge... With its every day ubiquity we can make the mistake of assuming that food is of little importance, or simply fuel to see us through the day. But what is its real impact on our emotional lives, and how can we better nourish ourselves? What we eat and how we eat it has a significant impact on our psychological well-being. In recent times, our society has been eager to recruit food to the project of physical health, but we’ve not always paid so much attention to how cooking and eating can assist us with our emotional health. With over 150 recipes, Thinking & Eating shows how ingredients and dishes can be supporters of certain ideas, emotions and states of mind that best help us confront the challenges of existence.

Eat Nourish Flourish is a 12 step plan and recipe book to enable you and your family to establish a healthy, sustainable relationship with the food you eat. It features 60 recipes which are not only healthy, hearty and delicious but they are also all simple-to-make, which is so important when you are trying to change the habits of the whole family. Written by food coach and mother of three Carey Davis-Munro, she knows only too well that for positive change to be sustainable, gain the support of your loved ones, and have a long-lasting impact, it needs to be a process. You'll need to bring your family along with you, throughout the education, the understanding, the planning, the cooking, and - of course - the passion. And that's where Eat Nourish Flourish comes in. There are many complex psychological reasons as to why we don't invest the time, energy, and money in healthy eating, so Carey primarily focuses on changing the relationship you have with food for the better. Alongside the 12 step plan, Carey has also created 60 flexitarian recipes which once you have restocked your food cupboard, are all simple to make whether it's a quick midweek tea, breakfast-on-the-go or a fully fledged evening meal. Standout dishes include Butternut Squash and Porcini Risotto, Aubergine Rogan Josh, Butternut Aloo and Raita and Baked Salmon Steaks with Ginger, Lime, Chilli and Tamari. Snacks and sweet treats include Crispy Chickpeas and Healthy Millionaires while there are also plenty of soups, salads and sides to choose from too. But this is so much more than a recipe book. It's about empowering you to make positive changes that will last and, ultimately, giving you and your family all the tools you need to live a long and healthy life.

For nature lovers, wellness enthusiasts, and modern mystics alike, Elements is a beautiful book about disconnecting from the digital world and reconnecting with nature for better health and inner peace. Ancient humans had an intimate connection to nature-we lived by the cycles of the sun and the moon, followed the flow of water when determining where to settle, and planted and sowed according to the shifts in seasons.

In this richly illustrated book, Andi Eaton explores the energy and characteristics each element holds, and teaches you how to incorporate a balance of each into your daily wellness practices: meditation and breathwork to amplify your glow, rituals for grounding and balance, and simple homemade recipes and exercises for nourishment. • Use a Breath of Fire exercise to glow with fire's energy • Host a Moon Manifestation Circle to ground yourself with earth's energy • Take a Goddess Bath to nourish yourself with water's energy As you explore each of the elements, you'll learn how to let your body speak and become an active listener to what it has to say. Elements is about reconnecting with yourself: what lights you up and what leaves you feeling physically, emotionally, and spiritually balanced.

Dominic and Grainne are a husband-and-wife team who understand that, although health and fitness are largely sold to us by younger people, they are not the preserve of the young. Being healthy is fundamental to every stage of life. Their holistic approach integrates all aspects of wellness: mobility, exercise, sleep, nutrition and stress management. By the time they met, Grainne had tragically lost her first husband to sudden adult death syndrome. In the aftermath of this trauma, she moved to Rome to study cooking and rekindled her love of yoga.

A psychotherapist of 30 years, Nancy Ellis-Ordway explains how she helps people get off the weight loss roller coaster, make peace with food and their bodies, and improve their health to find happiness and a better quality of life. Widespread publicity about "the war on obesity" has led to pervasive anxiety, distress, and shame about eating, says psychotherapist Nancy Ellis-Ordway. Many people feel at war with their bodies rather than at home, in large part because of weight stigma and the unrelenting pursuit of thinness in America. This book offers a detailed approach for change, with a particular focus on "the message we give ourselves" when we eat, exercise, and interact with other people. This process incorporates operating from an internal locus of control as a way to improve self-esteem. Elllis-Ordway, in contrast to the "diet mentality" that is full of restrictions, first has clients focus on building self-esteem and growing a desire for self-care. She teaches clients to develop an ability to "listen to their own bodies" for guidance to eat for physical and mental health. The better we listen to and fulfill our body's needs, she explains, the better our self-esteem and health becomes, and the more we believe we are "worth it" and are able to meet our objectives.
