“
Each one of us is longing only for health and happiness, in search of a way of living in the world that will let us appreciate our bodies, make good use of our minds, and fulfill our spirits. To treat my patients well, I needed to treat them as souls rather than symptoms. I needed to help them learn how to live and live well.

I needed not to feel less than others. I needed not to beat myself up with food. I need to nourish my soul, my body, my mind. Not with juice detoxes but with tasty raspberries. Walks filled with laughter. Lovemaking with my husband. Love in general.
