A leading clinical expert in the fields of child cognitive behavior therapy and anxiety disorders, Dr. Tamar Chansky frequently counsels children (and their parents) whose negative thinking creates chronic or occasional emotional hurdles and impedes optimism, flexibility, and happiness. Now, in the first book that specifically focuses on negative thinking in kids, Freeing Your Child from Negative Thinking provides parents, caregivers, and clinicians the same clear, concise, and compassionate guidance that Dr. Chansky employed in her previous guides to relieving children from anxiety and obsessive compulsive symptoms. Here she thoroughly covers the underlying causes of children's negative attitudes, as well as providing multiple strategies for managing negative thoughts, building optimism, and establishing emotional resilience.

Abstract: This book is a personal guide to overcoming compulsive eating, binging, and bulimia. It describes the author's recovery from her obsession with food and the self-destructive behavior associated with this "eating disorder". The steps that she used to overcome this illness were: 1) recognizing the problem, 2) realizing that weight was not the problem, 3) becoming motivated to live binge-free, 4) believing that she could live binge-free, 5) developing a healthy attitude toward food, 6) changing her belief systems, 7) exploring her feelings, 8) loving and forgiving herself and others, and 9) her spiritual awakening. Although the author overcame this illness without the use of therapy, she recommends the use of "eating disorder clinics", therapists, counselors, Overeaters Anonymous, and support groups. Also listed are organizations, suggested readings, and workshops on dieting, eating disorders, body awareness, personal growth, and meditation.
