Publisher's summary

For so many people, whether your addiction is to a substance or merely to a certain way of thinking or acting, a profound humbling occurs when you realize that your problem is bigger than you are. The terror of realizing, even dimly, that you have no control over a self-destructive pattern of behavior - that as much as you would want to, you simply cannot stop - can mark a crucial turning point in your life. At that point, you go in one of two directions: either way, way down, or way, way up....

This audio is for you if you know in your heart that you are an addict, and that you are powerless before your addictive behavior. As the title promises, Marianne Williamson looks at weight loss from a spiritual perspective, bringing you 30 lessons that can be done separately or in conjunction with any other serious spiritual path. These 30 lessons are completely separate from anything related to diet or exercise - they will retrain your consciousness in the area of weight in order to break the cycle of overeating, dieting, and shame that rules so many lives. Finally, Marianne has brought you what you’ve been waiting for: help to heal your addiction once and for all!

Beyond words. This book is a blessing to anyone who has struggled with food and weight. My life is forever changed. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Amen.

Very helpful

I have never read a book of this type before so I was pretty skeptical that it would help me at all. I had a hard time getting through it and almost gave up but I made myself listen to the whole thing and I’m glad I did. While a lot of it seemed unrelatable and repetitive, there were several things that she said that really made me think about how I have let things negatively impact me. I’m also glad that God was infused in this book because it really helps me to look at things from a more positive angle.

Brilliant and it works

Deeply smart. Beautifully organized. My only complaint is she talks too fast. She says such glorious things though so it's a good problem I guess. Compassionate, self loving. She really delivers.

Excellent

If used correctly and generally followed, this is a life changing book for people with eating issues.

Spiritual Growth

Would you listen to A Course in Weight Loss again? Why?

Its another book that came along a the perfect time in my life. I have always battled with my weight. I have been really seeking spiritual change and growth in my life and learned that everything is spiritually connected. Sh breaks it down and gives you examples I really understood and it has helped me tremendously. I could apply this principle to other areas in my life.

This was a good read. I really enjoy Marianne Williamson's books. She's a great writer!

As usual, Marianne is spot-on...

Permanent weight loss is less about food, or even behavior, and more about uncovering our barriers to love. Marianne presents the truth in manageable, do-able steps.

Helpful insight into issues with weight loss.

Encouraging step by step approach to weight loss and understanding the role of fear in the failure of most traditional efforts.

Weight loss Journey

This is much more than I expected. I have started once again on my weight loss journey with this book and the spiritual work on my part, I truly believe this will be the last time I make this journey. I listened through the whole book and followed along with prayers now I will listen once again following each exercise. This is just as important if not more than physical exercise. Thank you so much Marianne Williamson for this beautiful creation.

Life changing

This is a must read for anyone as it eloquently points to the root of facing. All human problems not just addiction or obsession. Surrendering to love and forgiveness. It should be a guidebook fir life fir anyone to discover the power of love and light inside them and how to access it. Reminds us that we are spiritual beings first and our spirit reflects our physical outer body. So healing in many levels. Thank you Marianne for so eloquently reminding me of the power of love and God within us all.
