Foodies rejoice! No more dangerous dieting; no more trash talking; no more self-loathing…
When Anita Revel lost her libido, her self-respect and her
aspiration to get another season out of her bikini, she embarked on a
life-changing process to find her goddess within. In creating The
Goddess DIET, she found dozens of Daily Intentional Empowerment Tools (’DIET’) to realign her physical, emotional and spiritual behaviours for holistic well-being. The Goddess DIET works because it connects the three crucial
relationships between body, mind and spirit for a healthy self-esteem.
Lose your inner critic, gain more energy and fall in self-love.

The body- mind- spirit
connection
|
The Goddess DIET is not a punishment. It is not about starvation, regimen, sweat
or sacrifice. This new DIET is an acronym for Daily Intentional Empowerment
Tools. It is a reward for following a responsible, easy and holistic approach to
good health and a happy life. This holistic approach is made up of three
essential facets:
Your Body
The first part of this DIET is based on the single and simple principle of being
kind to your body. Call it what you will - a vehicle, a temple, a house for your
soul - in any case it needs maintenance to serve you well for the rest of your
days. Your body is a barometer for your self-respect: disrespect your body and
it will stop co-operating. You'll tire more easily, become grumpy more quickly,
and get creaky when you move. Lord knows, a woman is only as young as her
joints. How you treat your body is a direct measure of your self-worth. To
improve your standing, this section focuses on increasing your awareness of how
food and food types affect your body and health, and how the right combination
of food and exercise makes you feel fabulous and comfortable in your skin. We'll
also look at some easy ways to overcome toxic habits. With practice you'll be
able to give your inner cynic the flick and give your body the respect it
deserves.
Your Mind
Your mind and your attitude play a vital role in how you feel about your body
and your life. This DIET dedicates a sizeable section to re-training your mind
and your attitude so you can see good health is easy and achievable. It is also
so you can see the exquisite beauty in your body and your lifestyle choices.
Love your body, love your Self. I will show you how to recognise signs of
self-sabotage, and how to curb habits of self-criticism and self- destruction.
This does take some commitment, but remember, it is simply conditioning that
created the 'you' that you are now. And just as you were conditioned to be a
certain way, you can certainly teach yourself to be another way.
Your Spirit
It is possible that as a child you were taught to rely on a greater power as
your source of strength - Jesus, God/dess, Angels, Buddha, Shiva, the Universe,
the Lord and Lady, a horny goat-god, an alien, Vogue magazine... There are as
many faith systems as there are bubbles in my champagne glass. In this DIET, you
are encouraged to reclaim your power from outer influences. To do this, there
are various ways to take the responsibility for your self-love into your own
hands. This way, you only have yourself to thank for your shining success ;-)
We'll leave behind systems of deferred blame and gratitude, and empower
ourselves instead by reconnecting with our authentic power within. I call this
authentic power your 'inner goddess' - the beautiful and sacred being you were
born to be. Love your body, love your Self, love your goddess within...

If you’re reading this book because you think it’s a manual for weight-loss, it’s my guess you:
a) think you’re fat;
b) really are fat;
c) both of the above.
Take heart. If you are conditioned to be ashamed of your curves (as
I was when I started this program), well, it’s time to overhaul your
thinking about dieting, your body, your body image, your self esteem
and your holistic well-being. It’s time to get real.
It is my pleasure to redefine the concept of dieting by providing
you with Daily Intentional Empowerment Tools (’DIET’) to help you feel
good about yourself. No more dangerous dieting; no more trash talking;
no more self-loathing… The Goddess DIET realigns your physical,
emotional and spiritual behaviours so that you can see a goddess in the
mirror within 21 days.
When I first developed The Goddess DIET in 2005, my initial goal was
to get back into my bikini. Happily, this program taught me so much
more about myself and my values so that eventually, the bikini became a
non-issue - I soon realised it was my attitude that was keeping me in
the loop of self-loathing.
So, this project is the result of my decision to change my life in
order to regain it. Physically, I found the ideal weight for my body
(and my wardrobe!) that is sustainable, healthy and keeps me energised.
And although I did lose a dress size as a side-effect of respecting my
body, I attained so much more than a simple diet plan could have given
me - I also benefited enormously on emotional and spiritual levels too.
I lost my inner critic, gained more energy and fell in self-love.
Nearly four years on, I’m still living The Goddess DIET with ease.
In fact, even though I’m a rampant foodie, regard champagne as a major
food group, and have a new baby at the time of completing this book,
I’m still lighter, healthier and happier than ever before.
I recorded the journey so you can see that even someone with a
history of bulimia and chronic lethargy can overcome ingrained
self-loathing and see a goddess in the mirror in 21 days. Herewith, is
my journey, ‘warts’, tantrums, tiaras and all.

Spotlight on... Why 21
Days?
|
Thanks to the work by plastic surgeon Dr Maxwell Maltz in the 1950s and '60s,
it is now accepted that it takes
21 days to break a habit. This came about when
Dr Maltz noticed his patients would often feel the same on the inside even if
they'd had reconstructive surgery to look different on the outside. He realised
that a person's relationship with their inner-self self paves the way for how
they see their outer-self, so in an effort to avoid the scalpel, set about
improving self-image as a means to repairing the patient's
outer-self.
Upon further investigation, he noted in his book,
Psycho-Cybernatics (Pocket Books 1971), that it took 21 days for amputees to
cease 'feeling' their amputated limb. He applied the same 21-day window to
create self-image improvement prior to surgery, with the result being surgery
became unnecessary for many patients.
Dr Maltz's 21-day theory was
supported when Yale School of Medicine researchers looked closely at synaptic
connections (the brain circuitry that allows brain cells to talk to each other).
According to Charles Greer, professor of neurosurgery and neurobiology and
senior author of the study1, synaptic connections "...do not appear until
21
days after the birth of new brain cells."
