Starting Monday

Seven Keys to a Permanent, Positive Relationship with Food

(Gürze Books, 2013)

Amazon
Barnes & Noble

Starting Monday is based on the simple premise that when our behaviors don’t align with our expressed intentions, we’ve got a conflict going on, often outside of our awareness. The book helps readers dig deeply into their psyches to figure out what mistaken beliefs and needless fears are holding them back from achieving their health and fitness goals. The keys will teach readers to: 

  1. create lasting change
  2. make conscious choices
  3. feel deserving
  4. comfort themselves
  5. know what's enough
  6. manage intimacy
  7. develop a healthy identity

Readers' Reviews

“I can't give enough praise for Starting Monday. It truly is helpful and inspiring.”

“Starting Monday! I laughed when I read the title cause I’ve been there my whole life. But it’s a serious book about changing yourself from the inside out. Scary but exciting!”

“I just bought Starting Monday and honestly, I was amazed. Although I am not a "dysregulated eater" the core principles applied to my life in many many ways. The book is about the transformation of self; of living life to the fullest by being gentle to oneself. Her writing style is enchantingly pleasant and yet profound. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking real change of any kind; from the inside out. She gets to the root of behavior and then effectively teaches the reader how to develop new ways to be kind to self.”
