Über diesen Titel

 We all inherit stories about belonging, bodies, and worth. Many of those stories begin with our mothers.

An illuminating inquiry into the complicated relationship between what we eat, what our mothers taught us, and what we believe about ourselves—from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Women Food and God

 "This book is both a love letter and a must-read for every woman who's struggled to find peace with her body, her mother, and food.”—Christie Tate, New York Times bestselling author of Group: How One Therapist and a Circle of Strangers Saved My Life
 For nearly four decades, Geneen Roth has been a trusted voice guiding women to give up dieting and end compulsive eating. Her books have sold millions of copies, and her workshops have months-long waiting lists. But only recently, when she was diagnosed with cancer, did she begin to understand how deeply entwined her feelings about her body are with her relationship to her mother. And, she realized, this is true for almost every woman: the voice inside our heads, the voice we use to talk to ourselves, which criticizes the size of our thighs or the softness of our stomachs—these are all-too-often the voices of our mothers.

Roth was determined to untangle her sense of self from her mother’s judgment. Working with a blind eighty-six-year-old wisewoman, Roth learned to distinguish between her mother’s influence and her own truer inner knowing. Roth began to see that it was not what her mother said or did that made her unhappy, but what Roth believed about herself because of what her mother said or did. For the first time, Roth began to understand how peace does not depend on external circumstances—you do not need to wait for someone else to change—it relies only on what you yourself choose to believe.

Written in her signature style—funny, self-deprecating, soulful—Love, Finally is Roth’s story of discovering the deeper awareness that set her free. This transformative, healing book is an essential roadmap for anyone who wants to repair their relationships with food, their families, and themselves.

Kritikerstimmen

“Beautifully written, Love Finally is for anyone who wants to look clearly at, and dismantle, the conclusions we have made about who we are, who the ‘other’ is, and how we experience life in the world.”—Elizabeth Lesser, New York Times bestselling author of Cassandra Speaks and cofounder of Omega Institute

“With humor, honesty, and grace, Geneen Roth invites readers to unwind the painful stories that keep us feeling separate and unlovable, and discover the freedom and joy of loving without holding back.”—Tara Brach, bestselling author of Radical Acceptance

“Love, Finally is the story of Roth’s triumph over the lifelong critical voice in her head—the voice women will recognize as the soundtrack playing the same ‘you’re bad, you’re wrong, you’re not enough’ song on repeat. Roth, as ever, remains wise, unguarded, insightful, and generous. This book is both a love letter and a must-read for every woman who’s struggled to find peace with her body, her mother, and her relationship with food.”—Christie Tate, New York Times bestselling author of Group: How One Therapist and a Circle of Strangers Saved My Life

“With her signature blend of humor and honesty, Roth shows us how to unravel cycles of inherited shame. This deeply necessary book walks us right up to our innermost secrets and holds us with wisdom and warmth.”—Ellen Vora, MD, author of The Anatomy of Anxiety

“Anyone who has ever struggled with body acceptance and image issues or tried to support a friend or loved one with these difficult problems will find in Roth a compassionate and generous guide. [This is]an inspiring memoir. No matter how deep and overwhelming problems might seem, hope and healing are always possible.”—Booklist
