I was happy to come across Doreen Virtue Ph.D. This tape expains the truth that we must start with the inside to affect the outside. This author speaks with compassion and easy direct explanations. Most do not realize that we use food as a drug to dull sensations and feelings in the body. I felt empowered after listening to this tape. I believe this is the first step to weight loss, the belief that when you take care of yourself the rest of the work is done for you. The book/tape gives you ways for the angels to assist you. I would highly recommend this book/tape to anyone who is tired of the promises that are out there for weight loss.
