Story
The number one New York Times best-selling author of Women Food and God maps a path to meeting one of our greatest challenges - how we deal with money. When Geneen Roth and her husband lost their life savings in the Bernard Madoff debacle, Roth joined the millions of Americans dealing with financial turbulence, uncertainty, and abrupt reversals in their expectations. The resulting shock was the catalyst for her to explore how women's habits and behaviors around money-as with food-can lead to exactly the situations they most want to avoid.

Story
From the beginning, Geneen Roth was told she was too sensitive, too emotional, too curious, too demanding, too intense, and too big. Yet gaining and losing weight for decades did not improve her self-worth or reduce other people's criticisms. Like most women who struggle with their weight, she believed that if she could resolve what seemed to be the source of her self-hatred - how and what she ate - she would be thin, happy, and free. That belief, she discovered, was false.

Trauma is a fact of life. Veterans and their families deal with the painful aftermath of combat; one in five Americans has been molested; one in four grew up with alcoholics; one in three couples have engaged in physical violence. Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, one of the world’s foremost experts on trauma, has spent more than three decades working with survivors. In The Body Keeps the Score, he uses recent scientific advances to show how trauma literally reshapes both body and brain, compromising sufferers’ capacities for pleasure, engagement, self-control, and trust.

Story
The causes of Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder range from severe neglect to monstrous abuse. Many survivors grew up in houses that were not homes-in families that were as loveless as orphanages and sometimes as dangerous. If you felt unwanted, unliked, rejected, hated, and/or despised for a lengthy portion of your childhood, trauma may be deeply engrained in your mind, soul, and body. This book is a practical guide to recovering from lingering childhood trauma. It is copiously illustrated with examples of the author's and his clients' journeys of recovering.

Story
Sixty-eight percent of Americans have dieted at some point in their lives. But upwards of 90 percent of people who intentionally lose weight gain it back within five years. And as many as 66 percent of people who embark on weight-loss efforts end up gaining more weight than they lost. If dieting is so clearly ineffective, why are we so obsessed with it? The culprit is diet culture, a system of beliefs that equates thinness to health and moral virtue, promotes weight loss as a means of attaining higher status, and demonizes certain ways of eating while elevating others.

Impactful for the some
I am a medical doctor and was referred to this book by my courageous daughter who has Binge Eating Disorder and Major Depression. She stated that the author’s insight, honesty, and simplicity “blew her mind”. I agree. It puts into words and clarifies many concepts that our family spent years figuring out...and that we are still working on. My daughter is doing well now, but I wish I had read this book years ago. This book will not be for everyone...will not be appreciated by everyone...but will be loved by some. I purchased both the written book and the audio book because of the convenience of listening to it given the particulars of my schedule this week. I will say that I preferred the written format in this case. The subject matter is intense and there are times when your mind wants to stop and reflect on the past. Although I enjoy audiobooks, in this case I preferred hearing the words in my own voice at my own pace. The reader was at times robotic. Overall I recommend the book for the subject matter. It has potential to save the life of an appropriate reader.
