Restoring The Blessing: Freedom from Bondage to Food & Body Image
Food is a BLESSING from the Lord--but for different reasons it is being misused and abused. Misinformation in nutrition abounds and is leading a nation astray. Meanwhile, "lifestyle" diseases are epidemic. Ignorance, obsession with dieting and gluttony also abound. Many of us allow food to take an inappropriate role when we use it as a substitute for our relationship with God and other people. Millions have developed an emotional or addictive relationship with food. A national obsession with food, body image, and an increasing epidemic of eating disorders are robbing our nation of its physical, emotional and spiritual health.
Restoring the Blessing exposes the reasons why the man-made "law of diets" fails. In GOD'S TRUTH we can find FREEDOM from even the most severe food addictions. Diane Preves, M.S., R.D. describes her own decade-long bondage to food and body image which resulted in an addictive relationship to food and exercise. In Restoring the Blessing Diane shares the steps out of addiction and into freedom. Diane developed and instructs the N.E.W. LIFE (Nutrition, Exercise, Wellness for LIFE) programs which provide the reader with practical tools to restore food to its rightful place of nutriture for optimal energy and health.
