What Are You Hungry For?

The Chopra Solution to Permanent Weight Loss, Well-Being, and Lightness of Soul

By: Deepak Chopra M.D.

Narrated by: Deepak Chopra M.D.

Basis for the upcoming PBS Special!

After promoting this message worldwide for thirty years, bestselling author Deepak Chopra focuses on the huge problem of weight control in America with exciting new concepts. What Are You Hungry For? is the breakthrough audiobook that can bring weight under effortless control by linking it to personal fulfillment in every area of a listener's life.

What are you hungry for? Food? Love? Self-esteem? Peace? In this manual for "higher health," based on the latest findings in both mainstream and alternative medicine, Deepak Chopra creates a vision of weight loss based on a deeper awareness of why people overeat - because they are trying to find satisfaction and wind up using food as a substitute for real fulfillment. Repudiating the failed approaches of crash dieting and all forms of deprivation, Chopra's new audiobook aims directly at the problem of finding fulfillment. When that problem is solved, he argues, normal eating falls into place automatically, and the entire system of mind and body achieves what it really desires.

“Everyone’s life story is complicated, and the best intentions go astray because people find it hard to change,” writes Chopra. “Bad habits, like bad memories, stick around stubbornly when we wish they’d go away. But you have a great motivation working for you, which is your desire for happiness. I define happiness as the state of fulfillment, and everyone wants to be fulfilled. If you keep your eye on this, your most basic motivation, then the choices you make come down to a single question: “What am I hungry for?” Your true desire will lead you in the right direction. False desires lead in the wrong direction.”

Wherever you are in life, this audiobook will help point you in that right direction.

The audio edition includes a bonus PDF of recipes and resources from the book.

Thought provoking ways of thinking myself thin.

Goes right to the core of problem eating and making healthy positive life changes!

Mr. Chopra has a soft calm voice and I will listen to much of this book again!

Awareness

Becoming aware is something I have been working towards. This book has so much good information for anyone wanting to go down that path.

More than losing weight effortlessly.

If you follow these simple instructions you too will lose weight effortlessly. I lost the 10 pounds I’d been wanting to lose with no effort other than eating mindfully. For someone who has always struggled with food addiction it is true I always ate to avoid feeling emotions. This book isn’t just about being mindful about what and how you are eating but being mindful of how you’re feeling. This feels like the missing link I’ve been searching for especially when it comes to quantity eating. Some reviews don’t like Deepak’s monotone voice. Look him up being interviewed. His voice goes with his personality (calm and kind)and to have this book read by anyone would not have the same impact. Follow his simple instructions for 100 days, you won’t feel deprived, and mindful eating will become a habit. One that will change how you feel and think about yourself and about how you eat!

Pretty Good

Had a lot of good information but not particularly inspiring. Basically says to eat well and meditate. There was one exercise about healing bad emotions that I really liked. I don't regret spending money on this book.
