To end the profound struggle with weight and health that so many people today endure, we must stop the insanity of doing what we have always done and develop new ways to truly help people. Accept Yourself! provides an in-depth guide to doing just that, using evidence-based strategies to improve how a person relates to food, their bodies and themselves. The results can be just what the doctor ordered. ã Marsha Hudnall, MS, RDN, Co-owner, Green Mountain at Fox Run and 2016-2018 President, The Center for Mindful Eating.
