Publisher's Summary
Weaving a rich tapestry of multicultural myths, ancient legends, and simple folktales, Anita Johnston, PhD, inspires women to free themselves from disordered eating by discovering the metaphors that are hidden in their own life stories.
"Storytellers speak in the language of myth and metaphor," Johnston explains. "They tell us a truth that is not literal but symbolic. If we hear the stories with only the outer ear, they can seem absurd and untrue, but when listened to with the inner ear, they convey a truth that can be understood and absorbed on a deeply personal level. In this way stories help us connect with our inner world, to the natural rhythms and cycles of the earth, and to the power of our intuitive wisdom."
An immensely enjoyable book, Eating in the Light of the Moon is filled with practical exercises and profound insights. Twenty chapters explore different themes of self-discovery and empowerment on core issues such as intuition, symbolism, feelings, sexuality, and recovery.

Wow.
I loved this book. I loved the stories and metaphors I felt like they are going to stay with me for a long time. This gave me so much insight into myself and has resonated so deeply. I ordered the hard copy so I can read in my own voice. Thank you for this treasure.

Eating in the Light of the Moon
This book took me a long time to listen to because it hit so close to so many of my own personal truths. If you are willing to believe that stories can heal and help a person grieve trauma and heal hurts, this book is for you. There will be a hell of a lot of personal work to do, but healing is better than sitting in pain for a lifetime.
