Finding Freedom with Food: A Q&A with Geneen Roth
By Kripalu Content Team
Kripalu presenter Geneen Roth is a writer and teacher whose work uses compulsive behaviors as a path to the inner universe. Her books include the number-one New York Times best-seller, Women, Food and God and Lost and Found: Unexpected Revelations About Food and Money. We asked her about what disconnects us from our bodies, what people experience in her programs, and how to take the first step toward changing our eating behaviors.
