About this item

Discover your unique female archetype to combat emotional eating, lose weight, and become your happiest, healthiest you. In working with thousands of women who wanted to lose weight and change the shape of their bodies, leading nutritionist and functional medicine coach Dana James observed a striking trend: no matter how diligent they were in sticking to their diet and exercise plans, old behavioral patterns and self-doubt sabotaged their efforts. In The Archetype Diet, James helps readers escape the seemingly endless psychological tug of war that is hampering their ability to care for themselves and explains which hormones cause you to store body fat on your belly, thighs and hips, and what to eat to change it. A revolutionary, holistic approach to weight loss, this book guides in readers in discovering which of four archetypes they embody: The Nurturer, believes her worth comes from her ability to care for others. She is compassionate and nurturing, but she can be prone to putting others' needs before her own. The Wonder Woman bases her self-esteem on her accomplishments. She is ambitious and high-achieving, but can often prioritize her drive to do more over her own self-care The Femme Fatale is sensual, strong, and alluring but can become obsessed with her looks to the point that she develops an unhealthy relationship to food. The Ethereal is spiritual and artistic, but her celestial nature can sometimes lead her to neglect earthly pursuits like eating well and tending to her body. By becoming attuned to your archetype, James shows how you can alter your diet to help feed your unique body chemistry while simultaneously examining how your sense of self-worth shapes your behaviors - including what you eat - in ways that may be working against your goals. Offering recipes, meal plans, and a step-by-step psychological intervention, The Archetype Diet will put you on the path to becoming leaner, stronger, and more attuned to your feminine fire and energy.
