No matter how developed you are in any other area of your life, no matter what you say you believe, no matter how sophisticated or enlightened you think you are, how you eat tells all.

Geneen Roth

Awareness, not deprivation, informs what you eat. Presence, not shame, changes how you see yourself and what you rely on.

Geneen Roth

To discover what you really believe, pay attention to the way you act — and to what you do when things don't go the way you think they should. Pay attention to what you value. Pay attention to how and on what you spend your time. Your money. And pay attention to the way you eat.

Geneen Roth
