Before she took the 'health journey around the world' that became Feeding the Body, Nourishing the Soul, author Deborah Kesten targeted her research into the connections between the food we eat and heart disease. But then a timely conversation changed the direction of her work forever. Now Deborah is a renowned authority on the ancient bonds between food, spirit, and our health. Her journey began this way:
"The sojourn that led to Feeding the Body, Nourishing the Soul began in New Delhi, India, when I interviewed clinical cardiologist Dr. K. L. Chopra. He told me that 'Prana is the vital life force of the universe, the cosmic force...and it goes into you, into me, with food. When you cook with love, you transfer the love into the food and it is metabolized...'
"After that conversation, I began what I call my health journey around the world. My search included a study of the connections between spirituality and food in Judaism and Christianity, Eastern healing systems such as India's Ayurveda, traditional Chinese Medicine, and Tibetan Medicine, cultural traditions such as yogic nutrition, Native American vision quests, and state-of-the-art Western nutrition science."
Deborah's award-winning book, which White River Press is delighted to welcome back into print, is a compassionate examination of these traditions and their implications for contemporary eating disorders such as anorexia and bulimia as well as the relationship between our emotions and what we put in our mouths. We promise you'll never think about food in quite the same way again.

We at White River Press are so pleased that Ed Bear's second book in the series of "Tyler tapes" - conversations between Ed Bear and Tyler - will be available again soon. For anyone who missed seeing Mr. Bear (aka Marty Slattery) in person, reading The Seven Deadly Needs is a wonderful way to connect with him.

First published in 2000 by Health Communications, it's been unavailable for many months. It should be available in January from amazon.com and at booksellers, but if you want a copy before then, this is your best bet. Just email your request to buy a book as soon as it is available.

Thanks for stopping by. Here on the White River winter has arrived!
