More quotes by Geneen Roth
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
How you eat is how you live. How you do anything is how you do everything.
Geneen Roth
Compulsive eating is only the symptom believing that you are not worth your own love is the problem. Go for the love. You will never be sorry.
Geneen Roth
You already have everything you need to be content. Your real work is to do whatever it takes to realize that.
Geneen Roth
We eat the way we eat because we are afraid to feel what we feel.
Geneen Roth
Imagine not being frightened by any feeling. Imagine knowing that nothing will destroy you. That you are beyond any feeling, and state. Bigger than. Vaster than. That there is no reason to use drugs because anything a drug could do would pale in comparison to knowing who you are.

If you decided to reteach yourself your own loveliness today, what would you do? How would you speak to yourself? Can you allow yourself that much?
Geneen Roth
You don't need a scale to tell you whether you're allowed to like yourself today. You are. You belong here. No matter what you weigh, you deserve joy and happiness.

You can't be stuck if you're not trying to get anywhere. Which, to me, means that when you stop fighting with the way things are, magic happens. You relax, open, and any action you take comes from alignment with what's true.
Geneen Roth
It's important to focus on the good in life and appreciate it.
Geneen Roth
The relentless attempts to be thin take you further and further away from what could actually end your suffering: getting back in touch with who you really are. Your true nature. Your essence.
Geneen Roth
. . . hell is wanting to be somewhere different from where you are. Being one place and wanting to be somewhere else . . . . Wanting life to be different from what it is. That's also called leaving without leaving. Dying before you die. It's as if there is a part of you that so rails against being shattered by love that you shatter yourself first.
Geneen Roth
For every diet there's an equal and opposite binge (bulimia which is binging and purging is another way of depriving yourself).
Geneen Roth
You can rescue yourself. No matter how you feel, no matter what you believe about your worth or your capacity to love and be loved, you can change.
Geneen Roth
And.. are you willing to go all the way? To understand that food is only a stand-in for love and possibility and spirit? Because if you aren't, you will get caught up in gaining and losing weight for the rest of your life. But if you are willing, then the portal to what you say you want is truly on your plate.
Geneen Roth
The problem with fantasy is the greatest benefit of fantasy: it prevents us from living in the present moment.
Geneen Roth
Real change happens bit by bit. It takes great effort to become effortless at anything. There are no quick fixes.
Geneen Roth
Chocolate ... is not something you can take or leave, something you like only moderately. You dont like chocolate. You dont even love chocolate. Chocolate is something you have an affair with.
Geneen Roth
We eat the way we live.
