Review: What Are You Hungry For? by Deepak Chopra

What Are You Hungry For?: The Chopra Solution to Permanent Weight Loss, Well-Being and Lightness of Soul by Dr Deepak Chopra
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is my first Deepak Chopra book. I've read articles and interviews and listened to him in various places, but up until now I hadn't really considered a book of his until I read the title of this.

I've been trying to lose weight for a while, and suspect my inability to do so isn't so much about the food, or diets, but about myself. So with that in mind I picked it up and I was not disappointed. It combined many ideas and themes that I already know and understand with some conclusions which were new and I hadn't considered before. There are a few journaling exercises in here and a lot to think about and process, plus a meditation routine and some recipes.

What I like is that Deepak Chopra comes from both sides of the medical science, both Eastern and Western, having been a doctor in both and combines the ideas from both in ways that make it much easier to understand what would help you. He uses plenty of evidence based off his own practice and stories from patients to explain and provide examples for what he is talking about, which is very much crossing the spiritual self with the physical self.

It's about being conscious and aware of yourself and your life and how to consider your entire wellness inside and out. He explains it all very clearly without using any complicated terms or jargon from the spiritual or personal development realm.

I would definitely recommend it if you are wondering why you can't lose weight.
