Using Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, Bryanna Heartley was able to remove her desire for comfort foods and instead deal with emotions in a fashion that lead her to self-discovery and self-actualization. In "Body Blame" (published by Balboa Press AU), Heartley strives to help others understand how to move beyond fears and make empowering decisions.
"Lessons are only useful when shared," Heartley says. "I changed my unconscious eating habits and unconscious ways of dealing with my emotions and knew other people were trapped in the same unconscious process and wanted to help more people than I could by seeing them individually as a psychologist."
Heartley uses a conversational, easy-to-read style that will put readers at ease and allow them to open up about themselves. Leading by example, Heartley's message encourages others to follow the guidelines in the book to achieve similar results.
Ultimately, Heartley hopes her readers will "Improve their health and overcome emotional eating, to identify and express their emotions rather than suppress them with food or any other addiction, and to have ways of dealing with unconscious childhood beliefs so they no longer drive current behaviour."
