With The Self-Compassion Diet therapist/author Jean Fain offers a unique approach to dieting that combines the best of four proven methods—self-love, mindfulness, self-hypnosis, and group support. Using simple tools including short quizzes, breathing exercises, mindful-eating practices and visualizations, you will begin to view yourself and your eating with kinder eyes and naturally progress toward self-acceptance and a healthy, sustainable weight. What you won’t find in this no-diet diet are forbidden food lists, suggested portion sizes, or calorie-cutting strategies.
