From the Author
I had an idea...to enable people to understand that the issue is not food, it is the relationship we have with food. There is no bad food, just some foods that are bad for us individually. I wanted to teach this information to you the readers in a fun way that you would enjoy reading whilst at the same time doing the techniques as you read them, and finding out for yourselves that they do work. The book is written in hypnotic language so the techniques enter into your non conscious by the story being fun and entertaining as well as highly informative. The book should take only about 90 minutes to read, making it ideal for a train or plane journey. Everything you need is within the story with easy to turn to exercises at the back, highlighting the key techniques which you will find yourself using. I hope you enjoy reading the journey of Sam and Jo as much as I did writing it. What have you to lose by taking the journey too?

Customer Reviews

will reserve judgement
It is very strange that all the positive reviewers have only written 1 review each! Could it be that they are friends of the writer?
The writing is appalling and unreadable at times due to the very poor sentence construction and punctuation. I read on other reviews that this is intentional but I find that odd as surely no publisher would allow that without an explanation.
Having said this, it is a very innnovative way to present this material and I would absolutely love it to work. I will apply the suggested techniques and if I successfully lose weight I will re-write this review because, to be honest, if it worked, I wouldn't care about the grammar and it would get 5 stars from me!

Positive Shrinking
Having been treated by Kevin in the past, I was intrigued to read his book. Like him, its powerful,straight talking and funny!

The short story format make the messages memorable, the exercises really work - I've tried them for myself! I especially like the revision section at the end which details all the exercises, better than trying to hunt back through the book for them.

I will be buying this book for my friends to improve their relationship with food and to give them the confidence to just do it!!!!

Positive Shrinking
Diets have had their day. This book is a must for anyone who wants to change how they look and how they feel for the better. There is a new generation of therapists emerging who are using techniques which have been honed over the last 30 years and which are now producing results in all areas of human behaviour. Kevin Laye is one of this new school. In this powerful book he has applied many contemporary disciplines to the challenge of achieving a desired weight or appearance, without resorting to dieting.Each technique presented is effective in its own right, and the combination provides a potent recipe for success.

All this has been achieved in a simple, humourous, narrative context, accessible to a very wide audience. A magnificent achievement.

As a practicing GP with an interest in helping patients with weight and body image issues, I will be recommending this book to my patients. These techniques work. The bonus is that they are also fun and make weight loss enjoyable.
