Tennie McCarty shares her philosophy and treatment of her famous retreat center, Shades of Hope, in this prescriptive, inspiring book.

With her trademark toughness, good humor and southern charm, Tennie uses her personal story, as well as those of others, to show readers how they can break free of addiction.

An interactive book that asks readers to be a part of their healing, Shades of Hope provides real-life solutions and a step-by-step program to teach readers how to let go of the never-ending cycle of overeating and attempted diets.

“If you want what we have and are willing to let go of control, then you have taken the first step toward recovery. Hold this miracle in your hand as a possibility.”
