Press Release Summary: Many people, especially women, have been taught to refuse
desire. In the self-published book, ‘Eating Desire’, Lisa Powers inspires one to get
what they really want to live a truly happy life.

Press Release Body: The Xlibris book, ‘Eating Desire’, celebrates a woman’s appetite
in all facets of life. Author Lisa Powers explains the logic of excessive indulgence
as a result of depriving oneself from what one really wants. By learning to listen
to what a person really wants for his or herself instead of suppressing them, one
can have a truly happy life.

Eating Desire is a personal account of Lisa’s obsession with food to conceal the
terror and shame of her dark childhood. She also chronicles her transformation from
being self-loathing to self-loving. This book transcends satisfying one’s appetite
for food, as it explores other important desires of life. These include comfort,
connection, personal fulfillment, power and protection, sexual pleasure,
transcendence, transformation and witness.

In this Xlibris self-published book, Lisa stresses how one’s relationship to food
mirrors one’s struggle for emotional, spiritual and sexual fulfillment. One’s hunger
for food is a wake-up call to listen to what one truly wants in life. It is not
about indulging in the excess but in going down to the things that truly matter:
that of steering the path that one is meant to take.

People with eating disorders will find the wisdom of Eating Desire truly helpful.
The more one listens to what they really want, the less one tends to overeat or
deprive oneself. Therefore leading one to become happier.
