Heather has a personable writing style in which you feel like she's in the room talking with you about the topic at hand. She shares experiences from her own life about the toxicity of comparing ourselves to others and offers a divinely constructed path forward.

I recently finished "On Writing," by Stephen King. King lays out his advice to writers in what reads more like a memoir, which I found quite enjoyable to read.(less)

Quotes by Sean Coons  (?)

“The restrictive eating inherent in diets treats the body as a separate, inferior part of the human being to be manipulated as desired by the mind, as though the body and mind are in an adversarial relationship.”
Sean Coons, Body: or, How Hope Confronts Her Shadow and Calls the Flutter Girl to Flight

“Like many things born in the ’70s, the Information Age is not aging well. It started with so much promise in its youth—unlimited access to the collective knowledge of mankind and all that. But now it’s going through a midlife crisis, and instead of just divorcing its wife and buying a Porsche like everyone else, it has decided to reinvent itself as The Propaganda Age.”
Sean Coons, Body: or, How Hope Confronts Her Shadow and Calls the Flutter Girl to Flight

“Refuse to succumb to the ultimate aim of the Propaganda Age, which is to flood you with ever-changing distractions and thereby fool you into thinking there is no such thing as truth.”
Sean Coons, Body: or, How Hope Confronts Her Shadow and Calls the Flutter Girl to Flight

“Fill your soul with beauty...
art
contemplation of your Creation
the power of LOVE
friends
family
people you don't know
God”
Sean Coons, Body: or, How Hope Confronts Her Shadow and Calls the Flutter Girl to Flight

“Body is the first novel to explore the journey to healthy body image and intuitive eating in a story readers can model.”
Sean Coons, Body: or, How Hope Confronts Her Shadow and Calls the Flutter Girl to Flight

“The restrictive eating inherent in diets treats the body as a separate, inferior part of the human being to be manipulated as desired by the mind, as though the body and mind are in an adversarial relationship.”
