Download or read book Empty written by Susan Burton and published by Random House Trade Paperbacks. This book was released on 2021-07-06 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An editor at This American Life reveals the searing story of the secret binge-eating that dominated her adolescence and shapes her still. “Her tale of compulsion and healing is candid and powerful.”—People NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY MARIE CLAIRE For almost thirty years, Susan Burton hid her obsession with food and the secret life of compulsive eating and starving that dominated her adolescence. This is the relentlessly honest, fiercely intelligent story of living with both anorexia and binge-eating disorder, moving past her shame, and learning to tell her secret. When Burton was thirteen, her stable life in suburban Michigan was turned upside down by her parents’ abrupt divorce, and she moved to Colorado with her mother and sister. She seized on this move west as an adventure and an opportunity to reinvent herself from middle-school nerd to popular teenage girl. But in the fallout from her parents’ breakup, an inherited fixation on thinness went from “peculiarity to pathology.” Susan entered into a painful cycle of anorexia and binge eating that formed a subterranean layer to her sunny life. She went from success to success—she went to Yale, scored a dream job at a magazine right out of college, and married her college boyfriend. But in college the compulsive eating got worse—she’d binge, swear it would be the last time, and then, hours later, do it again—and after she graduated she descended into anorexia, her attempt to “quit food.” Binge eating is more prevalent than anorexia or bulimia, but there is less research and little storytelling to help us understand it. In tart, soulful prose Susan Burton strikes a blow for the importance of this kind of narrative and tells an exhilarating story of longing, compulsion and hard-earned self-revelation.
Download or read book Groundlessness written by Rashanda Booker and published by . This book was released on 2018-11-21 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pain is a sign that something is wrong, signaling there is a larger concern that requires attention. Acknowledging and deciding to trace the source of the pain is not an easy process. However, it is imperative to dig deep to find the source of the pain. Not often do we view examining pain as a positive opportunity. Usually, in that moment, the pain is so uncomfortable that we desire instead to find a way to make it quickly go away and hope the underlying concern magically disappears as well. When the ground is quickly pulled from underneath you, and you are challenged to find your footing, an opportunity of a lifetime lies on the other side of unpacking the pain. When emotional pain hits, there is an instinctive decision to fight or retreat. Dr. Rashanda R. Booker decided to fight! In this transparent and raw story, she takes us along her personal journey from pain to peace and shares her triumph of becoming healed, whole, and full of peace.

Download or read book Healthy Conflict Peaceful Life written by Donna Jones and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2024-02-20 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author, speaker, and pastor's wife Donna Jones gives women a practical, biblical blueprint for making regret-free choices in the middle of real-life conflict so they can exchange relational turmoil for personal and relational peace. We've all had moments where we look back on a conflict, shake our heads, and think, why did I handle it that way? With three decades of ministry experience, Donna Jones has had a front-row seat to--and been in the middle of--all kinds of conflict and she understands the regret, guilt, heartache, and hurt conflict can produce. But she also knows it's possible for God to use those chaotic, painful moments and turn them into opportunities for better connection with those around us. With encouragement, warmth, and wisdom, Donna shows readers how to navigate the stressful confusion conflict can bring and helps them to discover the single most important quality necessary to handle conflict well; communicate thoughts, feelings, and opinions with grace, truth, and zero regret; be equipped to handle conflict in a God honoring way by exchanging conflict styles that hurt with conflict styles that heal; identify common conflict mistakes and prevent unnecessary disagreements and defeat; and stop being pulled into other people's drama and remain calm in the midst of chaos. Whether readers are dealing with daily disagreements or occasional blowups, Healthy Conflict, Peaceful Life offers them a new paradigm, one where they learn how to honor God when they've been hurt, communicate when they'd rather retaliate, and move toward others when it seems easier to run away.
