After
promoting this message worldwide for thirty years,
bestselling author Deepak Chopra focuses on the huge problem
of weight control in America with exciting new
concepts. What Are You Hungry For? is the
breakthrough book that can bring weight under effortless
control by linking it to personal fulfillment in every area
of a reader's life.
What are you hungry for?
Food? Love? Self-esteem? Peace? In this manual for
"higher health," based on the latest findings in both
mainstream and alternative medicine, Deepak Chopra creates a
vision of weight loss based on a deeper awareness of why
people overeat - because they are trying to find
satisfaction and wind up using food as a substitute for real
fulfillment. Repudiating the failed approaches of
crash dieting and all forms of deprivation, Chopra's new
book aims directly at the problem of finding fulfillment.
When that problem is solved, he argues, normal eating
falls into place automatically, and the entire system of
mind and body achieves what it really
desires.
“Everyone’s life story is complicated,
and the best intentions go astray because people find it
hard to change,” writes Chopra. “Bad habits, like bad
memories, stick around stubbornly when we wish they’d go
away. But you have a great motivation working for you, which
is your desire for happiness. I define happiness as the
state of fulfillment, and everyone wants to be fulfilled. If
you keep your eye on this, your most basic motivation, then
the choices you make come down to a single question: “What
am I hungry for?” Your true desire will lead you in the
right direction. False desires lead in the wrong
direction.”
Wherever you are in life, this book
will help point you in that right direction.
