We humans have an emotional dependency on food.  We eat chocolate when we're sad or depressed, but most of us don't know why it makes us feel better when we do.  Yet, that relief is usually temporary, and worse, can thrust us in the opposite emotional direction - it's not a long-term solution to coping with the stresses of life, and can end up causing more stress in the form of unwanted weight gain and other health problems.  In Eating Myself Crazy, former bulimic, lifestyle consultant and life coach Treena Wynes not only tells her story of food addiction and how a personal crisis sparked her path to recovery, but also shares valuable information for others struggling with emotional eating issues.  A handy and intimate guide told in plain English (mercifully low in saturated medical lingo), this pocket-sized book first shares simple easy-to-swallow bites of important mind/body facts related to food and emotion to educate the reader.  Next, the author encourages the reader to dig deep to uncover deeply hidden reasons for seeking out emotional relief in food.  Finally, Treena offers simple and flexible strategies and tools that can be used to suit any individual's lifestyle and needs.  Helpful tools include an eating journal, recipes and menu plans to wean people away from addicting foods, and shortcuts to overcome a wide range of specific lifestyle challenges.  An experienced and active coach, speaker, workshop trainer and blogger, Treena's goal is to help empower people to overcome their dependence on food to cope with stress, and to do it in a way that demystifies, simplifies and de-jargonizes the vast and often conflicting barrage of information we face in today's information bloated society.  Eating Myself Crazy is an information toxic cleanse in a neat little package.

Eating Myself Crazy: How I Made Peace with Food (and How You Can Too)

Treena wants to help you supercharge your well-being! Her life experience and education provide her with a unique perspective. As busy working mother parenting two teen boys, she understands the challenges of living in a modern world that values appearance, perfectionism, and the desire to have it all. 

As a young woman, Treena struggled with low self-esteem and body issues, including bulimia, so she empathizes with people who sell themselves short and limit their potential. Going through this experience has given her a non-judgmental attitude, unlimited patience, and a caring manner in her professional capacity as a counsellor because she knows from experience what it is like to be obsessed with thoughts about food, and the feelings of not being good enough.  

As a keynote speaker and counsellor, she helps her people to feel more adequate, confident, and enthusiastic about making life-changing decisions. Her book Eating Myself Crazy: How I Made Peace With Food (And You Can Too) is an excellent tool for people looking to change their lives one small, positive decision at a time.

Treena enjoys skiing with her family in the mountains, riding roller coasters, and yoga.

Me-time is more than a golf game, a few drinks with friends, or a quick nap. It actually has to do with how we are biologically created as human beings.

Stop panicking - you're not possessed, you're stressed!  Treena will explain how you became this version of yourself that you no longer recognize, and put you back on track with the necessary tools to reclaim a happier, healthier you. 

Taking Crazy Out Of The Equation

Many foods provide immediate gratification by numbing or soothing our intense feelings, but most people are unaware of their emotional dependency on foods until they go on a diet or highly restrict the foods they love. The diet often fails, prompting feelings of failure and self-blame. Treena understands, speaking to her personal struggle with bulimia for seven years, and how she turned her love/hate relationship with food into one that nourishes her body, mind and soul.
