BINGE/COMPULSIVE EATING
WORKBOOK for KIDS and TEENS
Our culture has a problem
with eating.Not so much the act of eating
itself, but the kinds of foods and the amount of such foods.Foods are everywhere, all the time.But oddly enough, at the very same time, we are
obsessed with physical beauty. Or more precisely, a particular, often unobtainable version
of beauty.We, as a culture, no longer
encourage our children to be accepting for who they are physically.Nor do we seem able to accept ourselves for who we
are.Temptation is everywhere, and we have
lost the ability to say “no”.And
at the same time, when we give our children the message that they should strive for an
unattainable physical ideal, what can we expect other than great difficulties with the
process of eating? This clinically developed and proven workbook employs the major eating
interventions by using model presentations, rehearsal, positive feedback and promoting.
