Review: The Diet Trap By: Jason Lillis PhD, JoAnne Dahl PhD, and Sandra M Weineland PhD

The Diet Trap: Feed Your Psychological Needs and End the Weight Loss Struggle Using Acceptance and Commitment TherapyThe Diet Trap: Feed Your Psychological Needs and End the Weight Loss Struggle Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy by Jason Lillis
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a book based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. A way to get to the root of your eating or dieting trap, change it and develop a healthier way of thinking, thereby a healthier way of life. Written in a way that is very comfortable, informative, fun, compassionate, and therapeutic you will learn self- compassion, mindfulness, how to identify your thinking patterns, and values. There are deep and helpful exercises (to do at your own pace). Meet yourself within these exercises, your goals, your values, you'll even meet your emotional T Rex - if you are willing to let the barriers down.
I really liked this approach to work in inner before thinking the outer was the answer, to get to the root, but in a gentle honest way. I think that the ACT approach would be great in all parts of your life.
