"Heart Sisters" is for women that want to both be and have better
friends and want a helpful guide to take them through the process.
Many women simply don t know how to be good friends. Author Natalie
Chambers Snapp uses her own and others stories of successes and
failures to illustrate what she has learned about girlfriend
relationships. Healthy boundaries, honesty, tact, sharing and agape
love all play a part in being and maintaining a circle of close
confidants. She also deals with the inevitable challenges that face
many relationships including how to handle conflict, life changes
like a new baby, move or divorce, and when it is right to break-up
with your friend. Discussion questions, space to journal, photos,
and quick interviews of healthy female friendships are included
within each chapter."
Binge eating disorder (BED) is the most common eating disorder
among men and women. This book centres on binge eating, which
consists of episodes of uncontrollable overeating, followed by
compensatory behaviour (ie: purging, fasting, heavy exercising).
People who suffer from this disease often try to hide their
binge-eating episodes from others, and often feel ashamed or
depressed about their overeating. Many factors may contribute to
binge-eating, such as dissociation, which may undermine an
individual's body image, and impulsivity. This book focuses on such
factors as well as the frequency with which such behaviours occur
in multi-ethnic populations, and the differences in frequency rates
as a function of gender and identity. The differences in binge
eating and bulimia nervosa behaviours are also explained, as well
as the theory that binging on some palatable foods, such as sugar,
can result in addictive-like behaviour. The association between
emotional abuse in childhood and future binge eating episodes are
explained as well as the prevalence of BE episodes in overweight or
obese children or adolescents. The effectiveness of certain
treatments for binge-eating are described, including cognitive
behavioural therapy (CBT), motivational enhancement therapy (MET)
and combined treatment.
