Unique approach to eating disorders January 20, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Reading this book has been wonderful for me. It provides survival tools in the form of stories and metaphors so they are easy to remember and call on when in distress. It separates weight from the issue, and suggests a more holistic and psychological approach toward resolution. br /br /I recommend this for anyone who suffers from anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder or compulsive eating disorder.

"Eating in the Light of the Moon" is hands down the best book on disordered eating I have yet to read, because it sheds light on the painful struggle with uplifting, inspiring storytelling. Johnston's soft, delicate voice will weave you through tales of distant lands which somehow bring you to the shore of self-discovery. This book does use psychology as the basis for its generalizations, but I never found it to be too preachy. Like saying good-bye to your favorite characters at the end of a novel, you will not want this story to end. It is one giant affirmation, and I recommend it especially to women who long to reclaim their hidden or lost feminine.

For people who want to recover from an eating disorder this book is a must for your library. It is conforting, interesting and soulful. It prompts the inner self to open its mouth and get ready to be fed what will truly nourish you.br /br /An eating disorder can be a catalyst to your growth as a person if you surrender to it with awareness and be open to its teachings. This book can help you do that. When you really know what you need besides behaviors of an eating disorder then you can go about the task of learning and working in partnership with life to create what you are really wanting and desiring.br /br /If you are new in recovery this book helps open the door to the deeper self and prepares you for a journey. If you are already in recovery and want another affirming voice to add to your support system, this book will help.

truly helpful book July 9, 2007
5 out of 5 found this review helpful

this book was an EXTRAORDINARY experience....it was almost as if I was having a 1:1 therapy session with a psychologist. What a fantastic exploration into an isolated world of eating disorders where no one really knows what it is like until you have been there. This book really gets to the meat of what is underlying an eating disorder. Having experienced this myself, it was nothing short of a incredible awakening as to revealing why I do what I do. Highly recommended
