Conquer your food-based obsessions and compulsions―and rediscover the joy of eating.
Does obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) interfere with your ability to maintain a healthy relationship with food? If you struggle with food-related obsessions and compulsions, everyday meal decisions can feel like an agonizing ordeal filled with uncertainty, anxiety, and stress. You may avoid specific foods due to fear of weight gain or contamination, follow rigid food preparation routines, or even attempt to avoid food when possible. So, how can you develop a healthier connection with food―one that nourishes and sustains you?
In this cutting-edge workbook, you’ll find evidence-based skills drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), exposure and response prevention (ERP), and Intuitive Eating to overcome avoidance and restriction, perfectionism about food and the body, contamination concerns, and sensory sensitivities. With this powerful guide, you’ll identify the root cause of your food-based obsessions, and take steps toward lasting healing. Finally, you’ll find strategies to help you deal with uncertainty, and make room for self-care in your daily routine.
A revolutionary approach to help you:
Directly challenge and overcome your food and eating fears
Understand the root cause of your obsessions
Evaluate your progress and fine-tune your recovery program

If you’re ready to take the stress and anxiety out of mealtime for good, this workbook offers proven-effective strategies you can use every day to build a healthy, sustainable relationship with food.
