Synopsis

This book is a much-requested follow-up to "Brain over Binge" (2011), in which the author shared how she used a basic understanding of neuroscientific principles to overcome bulimia. In this sequel and companion volume, with the help of fellow specialists and authors Amy Johnson, Ph.D., Katherine Thomson, Ph.D., and others, Kathryn Hansen lays out those same principles—and many more—in a self-help format that encourages and enables binge eaters to recover efficiently and effectively. Although recovery is not the same for everyone, this book posits that there are only two essential goals that must be met to end bulimia and binge eating disorder: (1) learning to dismiss urges to binge and (2) learning to eat adequately. As you work toward these goals with a streamlined focus, you will discover your own strength, develop your own insights, and put into practice ideas and behaviors that work uniquely and authentically for you. The Brain over Binge Recovery Guide is comprehensive in its length and scope, but utterly simple in its approach: You will read and use only what you need—continuing on in the book if you feel you need more information and guidance; putting it down and moving on with your life when you feel you’re ready—so that you can start living binge-free as quickly and easily as possible.

Review

"Kathryn's Recovery Guide is brilliant! She breaks down the science and explains in easy-to-understand language how to stop binge eating. This is a must read for anyone looking to finally get a handle on their unhealthy eating patterns."  -Stacey Cohen, Integrative Health & Lifestyle Coach

 
"The Brain over Binge Recovery Guide is a deep dive into the concepts of Kathryn's original book, Brain over Binge. She insightfully anticipates the typical roadblocks her readers will experience, and, in her compassionate expert manner, gives us very actionable and understandable alternate ways to think and behave. I loved Brain over Binge and now have another excellent resource to share with my own clients who struggle with binge eating."  -Cookie Rosenblum, MA, Master Weight Loss Coach & Author of "Clearing Your Path to Permanent Weight Loss"

 

"This book is a game changer. It's transformative both for people with bulimia and for therapists and treatment centers alike. I'd recommend to anyone who's looking for a new approach to traditional therapy or who has had recovery relapses to give Kathryn's techniques a try."-Polly Mertens, Eating Disorder Recovery Coach & Recovered Bulimic




"Kathryn's approach to overcoming binge eating is the most useful and effective I have ever found. Her writings take all of the drama out of eating disorders and simply deliver pure, rational principles in an easy and understandable way. The intent is clear that this is just to help you get better and nothing more ... and it has transformed my life forever." - Lydia Wente, Lifestyle Coach & Recovered Binge Eater
