The basic premise of the book is that all eating disorders, or any disorder for that matter, originates from unfulfilled desire. The "answer" that the book delivers, in alignment with the Buddhist school of thought, is to make peace with where you are and release all desire to be elsewhere. The first half of the book also addresses the difference between optional suffering and inevitable suffering.The 2d half of the book went further into the morals of helping others eat, such as volunteering at a food kitchen, etc. The book's main underlying theme seems to be: appreciation for food will set you free from a relationship of struggle with eating. I agree that a shift in perspective will assist in remedying eating disorders, but I am not so sure there is one right path to achieveing that shift, such as volunteering at a food kitchen, or relinquisihing critical speaking. I think each individual person, through trial and error, will have to carve out their own path to achieve a change in perspective. But, all around worth a read. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ but this is by far the absolute best. Just a delight *by F***R on Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2017* I have read many, many books on the subject, but this is by far the absolute best. Just a delight. Yes! When I have trouble staying within the limits of my normal, healthy diet, it is because something is wrong emotionally. This book addresses the issue head on. It is about being mindful of what we are doing and why, what we are eating and why, has personal stories, and has touches of a self help book - I loved it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Overeating from a Different Perspective *by R***M on Reviewed in the United States on May 30, 2005* I purposely sought-out a book on the Zen of Dieting, and this was what came up in my search, so I bought it. I was not familiar with Zen beforehand, but I knew that all the dieting knowledge in the world was not helping me, that it was time to address the mental/psychological/spiritual attitude behind eating. This book was an excellent start. Some of the principles were too earthy and idealistic for me, but that did not prevent me from the benefits of many other lessons in the book. As they say "Take what you need and leave the rest." --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/23114022-the-zen-of-eating-ancient-answers-to-modern-weight-problems](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/23114022-the-zen-of-eating-ancient-answers-to-modern-weight-problems) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
