Soul-Full Eating by Maureen Whitehouse
VIA KATYA SLIVINSKAYA

For me, food has always been more about joy than health, so I was happy as I turned the pages of this hefty read to find much talk about the enrichment of the soul. Although the gentle, far-from-preachy voice of the author takes us through the many food paradigms of the diet world (finally!), acknowledging its myriad confusing contradictions, the term “nutrition book” would be a misnomer for this one. Its scope is much broader, linking the way we eat to as many avenues of life as you can think of. Everything about Soul-Full Eating is comforting, which makes it a good one to keep around rather than reading once and tossing.

My Thin Lifestyle is dedicated to giving listeners the information and inspiration to get thin and stay that way! This week’s show features Maureen Whitehouse, author of Soul-Full Eating: A Delicious Path to Higher Consciousness.

Author Maureen Whitehouse is an expert in personal development, enlightenment and eating as a sacred path. Her book, Soul-Full Eating, was a Nautilus Book Award finalist and an Independent Publisher Book Award winner. Maureen explains how to make weight loss a natural and inevitable process through the power of love. She advocates choosing foods that are grown with love, shopping with love, cooking with love, and eating with love. Maureen says that “excess weight is our heavy, unhappy thoughts about ourselves…projected outward,” and she promises we can have an effortless relationship not only with food, but also with all other aspects of our lives. Maureen’s unique ability to link food and love will surprise and uplift you.

I’m so glad my daughter, Heather, now the editor of elephant magazine took away greater wisdom and a Soul-Full perspective from her childhood experiences on television sets with me.
Enjoy her blog post!

My mom used to be a commercial actress, so as a kid I spent plenty of time on sets, witness to all the manipulation that makes advertisements appear perfect. I remember one Dunkin’ Donuts photoshoot where the donut frosting was actually made out of toothpaste—because actual frosting was too runny to form the sugary crust the photographer and ad execs wanted. The model bit into the toothpaste-donut, turned to the camera and smiled in bliss—then, as soon as the photographer got the shot he wanted, she bent over a nearby bucket and spit it all out. Check out this German website, which contrasts the picture-perfect meals promised by packaging with the actual stuff inside. Grossed out? Reach for an apple, or cook up dinner at home tonight. When you make it yourself, what you see is what you get. ~ Heather Mueller, ed.

According to Maureen Whitehouse, author of the best seller Soul-Full Eating: A (Delicious!) Path to Higher Consciousness, it’s possible to eat our way to enlightenment. Eating “soul-fully” is something that’s available to all of us, no matter our faith or philosophy. By being aware when we select, prepare and eat our food, we can radically increase our vibrancy, vitality, eco-awareness and connection to Spirit.

Join Maureen as she discusses a wide range of nutritional topics, including raw foods, macrobiotics, Ayurveda, acid-alkaline balancing, food combining, “living water,” weight-loss strategies and more. Come share insights, laughter and delicious raw food treats, as we discover how to give up guilt and to love (and eat) ourselves back to wholeness.
