Abstract
Qui n'a jamais connu une personne endeuillée par le suicide d'un proche ? C'est malheureusement un geste extrême de plus en plus fréquent. Il s'agit d'un acte incompréhensible que l'on doit tout de même accepter afin de passer à autre chose. Mais comment accepter cette absence qui déchire, comment vivre ce deuil, jour après jour, semaine après semaine ? Comment se relever alors que la vie continue, alors que le courant de la vie nous amène déjà ailleurs.
« Malgré l'absence immensément douloureuse, malgré le vide sans nom, j'ai dû accepter l'inacceptable, le suicide de mon fils cadet, raconte Odette Bisson. Pour me reconstruire, il aura fallu que je garde espoir en la vie. Vivre le moment présent m'a permis d'envisager la possibilité d'un avenir. Si chaque livre a sa mission, la mission du mien aura été de tendre la main et de permettre à d'autres endeuillés du suicide de briser le tabou qui entoure leur désespoir. »
Écrivaine, photographe, peintre à ses heures et historienne de l'art, Odette Bisson aime exprimer librement ses émotions et ses passions. Sa créativité, son empathie spontanée et son humour lui permettent de jeter un regard original sur les affres et les aléas de la vie et sur le suicide de son fils cadet.

Abstract
Food has the power to temporarily alleviate stress and sadness, enhance joy, and bring us comfort when we need it most. It's no wonder experts estimate that 75 percent of overeating is triggered by our emotions, not physical hunger. The good news is you can instead soothe yourself through dozens of mindful activities that are healthy for both body and mind.
Susan Albers, author of Eating Mindfully, now offers 50 Ways to Soothe Yourself Without Food, a collection of mindfulness skills and practices for relaxing the body in times of stress and ending your dependence on eating as a means of coping with difficult emotions. You'll not only discover easy ways to soothe urges to overeat, you'll also learn how to differentiate emotion-driven hunger from healthy hunger. Reach for this book instead of the refrigerator next time you feel the urge to snack-these alternatives are just as satisfying!
