Book Description
Read Nancy Redd's blogs and other content on the Penguin Community. The New York Times bestselling author of Body Drama addresses anxieties young women face about weight, diet, exercise, and body image. At a time when both obesity and eating disorders are on the rise, Harvard graduate and former Miss Virginia Nancy Redd provides a much- needed resource for millions of young women and concerned parents. In her uniquely reassuring "big sister" voice and with a fresh, fun, and frank attitude that has made her the nation's go-to girl for body issues, Nancy addresses the common, painful, and shameful "diet dramas" that most mainstream diet and nutrition books miss, including: "I think I'm healthy, but medical charts say I'm not"; "I can't afford a gym so I can't exercise properly"; and "I just want to have weight loss surgery and be done with it." Nancy's advice is vetted by a leading adolescent medicine expert and the book is packed with informative "fast facts," moving personal anecdotes of Nancy's own diet experiences, and revolutionary real-deal four-color photographs of young women sized 2 to 22. Finally, a food and fitness book that doesn't condescend or blame, Diet Drama begins with body image and shows readers that health comes in all shapes and sizes. Watch a Video

Book Description
Wholesome food has healing properties, and when we purify our diet, a number of healing reactions may begin to arise from unresolved past experiences and strong emotions. These emotions get stored in our organs and connective tissue as emotional scar tissue, creating energy blockages that lead to pain. In Feed Your Body, Feed Your Soul, author Ara Wiseman outlines how eating the right amount of pure nutritious food can help begin to release and eliminate these unresolved emotions we have stored and carry around with us. Our bodies are very forgiving, and when we stop our harmful habits and behaviors and replace them with healthier ones, nature can give us a whole new opportunity for a wondrous life. Somewhere deep inside we all yearn for emotional balance and hope to find peace with the most fundamental necessity of lifeour nourishment. Between the covers of this book, Ara shows us how. In her book, Feed Your Body, Feed Your Soul, Ara Wiseman gives us an intimate glimpse into her own journey towards wholeness. She provides the essential building blocks for good nutritive practices, but, more importantly, places this useful information into a wholistic context. In the process of developing her themes, Ara provides liberal sprinklings of philosophical spices and condiments to enliven the dish. These quotations, aphorisms, and affirmations from mystics and spiritual philosophers inspire us to take a loving look at ourselves and give us the courage to choose a nourishing and healing path. Dr. Anthony Godfrey, PhD, ND, author of Deep Immunity Ara Wiseman has written a multi-dimensional book that not only shows us the way to excellent physical health, but also the process of wholeness in relationships. Highly recommended. John Randolph Price, bestselling author and chairman of the Quartus Foundation

In Feed Your Soul, she presents her unique understanding of body science, brain wiring, and spiritual principles to facilitate real, lasting change. Carly helps you reframe your thinking to, for example, see comfort foods as the numbing toxins they truly are and focus on long-term goals rather than immediate gratification. This no-nonsense guide will show you how feeding your soul can change your life, your health, and your body.

There's so much confusion about what to eat. Are you jumping from diet to diet and nothing seems to work? Are you sick of seeing contradictory health advice from experts?
