Includes bibliographical references.

"If you work on the mind or body alone, it will have some sort of spillover effect and the one will impact the other. However, when you focus on both mind and body simultaneously, you create an almost magical synergy, causing a greater impact than if you treat them separately. The reciprocal relationship between mind and body was already known to many of the greatest physicians and philosophers through the centuries, like Hippocrates (460-370 BC) and Maimonides (1135-1204). Of late, modern day psychology and nutritional science are taking a renewed interest in the ancient perspectives on happiness and weight loss. Mind Body Synergy identifies fundamental principles in both ancient and current research, providing a practical system for mastering mindfulness and weight loss. Inspired by his own weight loss struggles and life challenges, author David Zulberg refined and tested this system over 18 years, with thousands of success stories. Practical guidelines for managing stress, anger, break-ups, loneliness, altering your perception, and mindful eating are interwoven into a step-by-step method for changing your meals, snacking, and exercise habits"--Page 4 of cover.
