The Satisfied Workbook by Dr. Rhona Epstein

A practical how-to resource for readers in search of biblically based freedom from food issues, The Satisfied Workbook is the latest resource from food addiction counselor, Dr. Rhona Epstein. This successor to Food Triggers and the successful Satisfied devotional is a workbook with the step-by-step help needed for overcoming struggles with food.

Rooted in the familiar process of twelve-step recovery programs and based on psychologist Dr. Rhona’s thirty years of experience in addiction recovery, The Satisfied Workbook: A Spiritual Guide to Recovery and Food Freedom pairs scriptural encouragement with her counseling expertise and personal experiences, as well as practical questions and applications for readers.

Moments of personal recovery contemplation and prayer with space for written reflection, along with the exercises and guided meditations, make this a standout among resources for food issues and addiction recovery. The Satisfied Workbook is a perfect resource for those whose relationship with food is suffering. Each chapter includes:

Spirituality and Reflection – Inspiring Bible verses and prompts to reflect and meditate on your spiritual journey and space to record your progress.
Focus on one of the traditional twelve steps of traditional recovery programs, but through a biblical and food-focused lens
Real Talk with Rhona – Personal and insightful experiences that dive into realistic food addiction struggles and the path to recovery, faith, and fulfillment, as well as examples of real-life scenarios that readers might face
Modern Life Guidance – Thoughtful prompts that give new perspectives on issues like body image, healing from addiction, eating behaviors, and life balance, to name just a few.

The Satisfied Workbook is designed for anyone seeking to change the way they relate to food, from balancing uncontrollable and compulsive eating habits, to those deeply struggling with food addiction and abuse. The practical time-tested strategies and tools in this workbook can ensure that food takes its proper place in your life to truly satisfy your hunger.

Reviews and Endorsements

“The ideas in this book challenge popular narratives that if the path is hard, it hurts, or is unclear, it’s not worth it. But I have seen in my own life, in Michele’s life, and others around me, that success has more to do with perseverance than anything else. It doesn’t matter if you are a singer, a CEO, or someone who has yet to find their way in the world. You can find purpose and meaning if you are willing to go where others won’t go and challenge yourself to live with uncertainty until the right door opens. Waiting for that breakthrough and surviving the “in-betweens” is a crucial part of that process. Michele provides not only the inspiration to move through anxiety and fear, but the tools necessary to fight whatever is holding you back. It’s time to stop waiting and wondering and time to Get Off the X and work for your dreams!”

—Howie Dorough, Singer in Backstreet Boys and Real Estate Developer

“As a former CIA intelligence officer, I can personally attest to the critical importance of getting off of the X to accomplish our operational mission. Michele has masterfully parlayed this concept into her book, Get Off the X: CIA Secrets for Conquering Obstacles and Achieving Your Life’s Mission, which is a must-read for everyone, no matter where they are on their life’s journey. What most resonated with me was the emphasis on patience when we find ourselves overly anxious and yearning for clarity in the road ahead. I only wish I had the wisdom gleaned from this book much earlier in my personal and professional life. Let this book serve readers as an invaluable guide for navigating the uncertainties of life’s journey with faith and resilience.”

—Peter Warmka, Founder Counterintelligence Institute and author of Confessions of a CIA Spy

“Get Off the X is the perfect book to change the way you think about obstacles in your life. Michele’s personal stories and advice for achieving your goals will make you motivated, happier, and more productive. I can’t recommend this book enough.”

—Eric DeCosta, Executive Vice President and General Manager, Baltimore Ravens
