About this listen

 Embraced by Oprah, the #1 New York Times bestselling guide that explains the connection between eating and emotion from Geneen Roth—noted authority on mindful eating.

No matter how sophisticated or wealthy or broke or enlightened you are, how you eat tells all.

After three decades of studying, teaching, and writing about our compulsions with food, bestselling author Geneen Roth adds a powerful new dimension to her work in Women Food and God. She begins with her most basic concept: the way you eat is inseparable from your core beliefs about being alive. Your relationship with food is an exact mirror of your feelings about love, fear, anger, meaning, transformation, and, yes, even God.

A timeless and seminal work, Women Food and God shows how going beyond the food and the feelings takes you deeper into realms of spirit and soul—to the bright center of your own life.

The insights, wisdom and love in this book are life changing. I think this book is a work of art. I usually listen to audiobooks whilst doing at least one other thing (makeup, dressing, cooking, driving, ironing). I think this is the only audiobook I’ve been moved to sit with on the couch or on the bed and just listened. I wanted to hear everything she had to say, to receive all the goodness. There’s so much here. Listen to the end. It’s sublime.

I now understand what I've been doing wrong all these years. it's not the amount of food as much as it's the attention to how we consume it. Love her sense of humor. Beautifully narrated by the author.

An eye opener to eating habits.

It’s been a few years now since I first listened to this book. It initially helped me reconnect with my true self and recognise that I truly was benefitting from overeating. It was a hard pill to swallow and understanding isn’t the be all and end all. The guidelines are so helpful and I have maintained a 20+ kg weight loss overall over approx 5 years. It was very gradual losing it as I let go of dieting for the first time in decades.

Whenever I’m feeling lost or unsure, I return to Geneen’s books. They make me feel safe and like myself again. They helped me realise that what I really want to eat isn’t what I thought it was. Truly groundbreaking.

I highly recommend Geneen’s other books, alongside this one for a holistic approach. Geneen, thank you for baring your soul and wisdom to help the rest of us achieve peace within ourselves.

Can’t thank Geneen enough!
