“Food Therapy is a revolutionary guide that transforms the way we see food, shifting it from a source of control or comfort into a form of embodied therapy that reveals our cravings as messages from the parts of us still longing to be nourished, seen, and safe.”
— Dr. Nicole LePera, author of the #1 New York Times bestsellers How to Do the Work and How to Be the Love You Seek
“Luis Mojica’s thoughtful animistic approach to food and healing flips the script on the old cliché ‘you are what you eat’ to show that what (and how) we eat powerfully reflects and affects how we relate to who we are. With a wealth of dietary knowledge, practical guidance, and beautifully personal stories from his many years of experience as both healer and healed, Luis encourages you to cultivate your own intimate, nourishing relationship with this core aspect of being alive. This lovely, timely, passionate book will help deepen your connection both to ‘what you eat’ and to ‘who you are.’”
