Eat the Cookie: The Imperfectionist’s Guide to Food, Faith, and Fitness

"Finally--a real-life plan for eating and thinking healthy. Nutrition and fitness coach Taylor Kiser's Eat the Cookie is your invitation to give yourself the grace to be both a masterpiece and a work in progress. From diets to detoxes to fitness plans, there's no shortage when it comes to plans for perfection. But what happens when our quest for health and perfection leads to fear, insecurity, and over-control? Written with her characteristic straight talk and humor, Taylor Kiser draws insights from her own journey to help you find freedom from the impossible quest of perfection. Whether you struggle with body image, eating disorders, unhealthy habits, or the never-ending comparison game, Eat the Cookie provides an easy-to-follow roadmap to spiritual and physical health. Each chapter delivers God's truth to help you redefine your identity in healthy ways, embrace progress over perfection, and use practical tools--such as never-before-published recipes and fitness plans--to love and care for the body God gave you. Taylor understands the pendulum swings we experience with our weight and self-perception. She knows what it's like to let fear of falling short turn into a belief that you're not worthy, and this belief turned into destructive habits that controlled her life for far too long. Now a certified nutrition and fitness coach, Taylor enjoys eating a cookie now and then, even as she enjoys discovering recipes and habits that give her renewed physical energy and health. In Eat the Cookie, you'll learn the secrets of balance that can help us all live health-conscious without being calorie-obsessed. Recipes and exercise plans are available in the audiobook companion PDF download."

Trauma-Sensitive Yoga in Therapy: Bringing the Body into Treatment

"When treating a client who has suffered from interpersonal trauma—whether chronic childhood abuse or domestic violence, for example—talk therapy isn't always the most effective course. For these individuals, the trauma and its effects are so entrenched, so complex, that reducing their experience to a set of symptoms or suggesting a change in cognitive frame or behavioral pattern ignores a very basic but critical player: the body. In cases of complex trauma, mental health professionals largely agree that the body itself contains and manifests much of the suffering—self hatred, shame, and fear. Take, for example, a woman who experienced years of childhood sexual abuse and, though very successful in her professional life, has periods of not being able to feel her limbs, sensing an overall disconnection from her very physical being. Reorienting clients to their bodies and building their 'body sense' can be the very key to unlocking their pain and building a path toward healing. Based on research studies conducted at the renowned Trauma Center in Brookline, Massachusetts, this book presents the successful intervention known as Trauma-Sensitive Yoga (TSY), an evidence-based program for traumatized clients that helps them to reconnect to their bodies in a safe, deliberate way."

[Spanish] - El arte de la vida sana: Tu guía de nutrición para el cuerpo y el espíritu

"Tu guía de nutrición para el cuerpo y el espíritu Descubrir los secretos de una vida sana es uno de los más grandes anhelos del ser humano, y esto la ha llevado a probar diversas teorías, algunas de ellas tienen su origen en conocimientos milenarios y otras son el resultado de investigaciones novedosas, pero en su mayoría coinciden en la importancia del equilibro entre la nutrición del espíritu y la del cuerpo. Karina Velasco se ha dedicado por años al estudio de algunas de estas teorías. Su interés por los temas de nutrición y espirituales la ha llevado a viajar por diversos países, a aprender las filosofías tradicionales, principalmente de origen oriental, y a estudiar con los grandes innovadores en el mundo de la nutrición holística y expertos en teorías dietéticas. En este libro, la autora explora algunas de las teorías más efectivas, aquellas que son fácilmente adaptables a cualquier estilo de vida y tipo de cuerpo, y que además son sencillas de aplicar a la vida diaria; partiendo del principio de que cada organismo reacciona de diferente manera, y por lo tanto algunos sistemas no funcionan igual para todos. Este libro contiene valiosa y práctica información sobre: -El reflejo de las emociones en el cuerpo. -La influencia de los alimentos en las emociones. -Hábitos alimenticios sanos; desintoxicación. -Alimentos que curan. -Alimentos que generan enfermedades. -Yoga, respiración y meditación. -Recetas de cocina ricas y sanas. Y, lo más valioso, Karina Velasco comparte su propia experiencia, su transformación interior, su lucha por encontrar un equilibrio entre peso ideal, cuerpo sano y plenitud, y cómo descubrió que la conexión entre el cuerpo y el espíritu es el secreto para el bienestar."
