Book Description

"Eating Your Meditation" gives you a way to eat for maximum assimilation, cellular regeneration, and environmental synchronicity. When you eat food, the primary ingredient you take in is light. When you eat at the right time of the day ("on time"), you absorb the maximum amount of light from food. Therefore, when you eat is just as important as what you eat. "Eating Your Meditation" gives you a synchronized life and the opportunity to fulfill your metamorphic destiny. When you eat on time, you can become something entirely new. If you are ready to discover what you are, "Eating Your Meditation will" show you how. Steven Roberts grew up in New England and graduated from Boston University in 1975. He struggled with his weight from early on, trying diets, fasting, exercise, and liquid drinks. By his mid-thirties, he weighed 240 pounds--70 pounds over his functional weight. Just when he was about to give up hope of ever shedding the extra pounds, a friend invited him to take a Solar Nutrition class given by the eminent Solar lifestylist Adano C. Ley. In this class, Steven realized he could eat and enjoy his food without guilt or denial. As a side-effect of eating on time, he found the extra pounds dissolved away naturally and his weight stabilized. Steven lives with his wife Linda in Santa Fe, New Mexico. They teach Metamorphic Nutrition classes and help others learn how to eat their meditation.

Book Description

A joyful, non-diet approach to mindfulness, intuitive eating, and falling in love with the body you live in. In Eat to Love, nutritionist Jenna Hollenstein leads a spiritual revolution against pervasive attitudes towards food and dieting, and demonstrates how to free your mind from the fear, frustration, and shame often associated with eating. Through a series of revelatory exercises, along with simple instructions for time-proven mindfulness and meditation techniques, you’ll learn to identify prejudices around eating and reset your relationship with food. Eat to Love is not a diet book, not a “clean eating” manual, and not a guide to “being your best self.” Rather, it is a liberating path to sanity, and to loving the body you have right now. Since early childhood, many of us have heard that something is wrong with our bodies: with the way they look, the way they feel and the food we crave. This diet culture—surrounding us in the form of media, fashion, food trends, and even messages from friends and family—tells us that the only way to be happy is to be thin and to rigidly follow the latest eating dogma. Eat to Love challenges this insidious, pervasive messaging and resets your relationship with food from one that’s shameful to one that’s nourishing, liberating, and enriching.
