Mission
Yoga for Eating Disorders is a space for support and community offering yoga therapy, trainings, a free weekly support group, blog, resources, and more. We are dedicated to providing offerings that draw on the practices and wisdom of yoga to support healing for individuals going through recovery, as well as educate professionals about the role of yoga in eating disorder recovery and create an inclusive community. No matter where you are located in the world, we are here for you.
Intention
Our intention is to provide trauma-informed spaces for individuals in eating disorder recovery to develop new tools and coping strategies through our yoga-inspired programs as they explore emotional and medical work with their outpatient team.
Our intention is to fill gaps in healing opportunities for those affected by eating disorders across the globe and educate professionals of all backgrounds about the role of yoga in recovery.
Promise
We believe in community as a force for healing and promise to provide welcoming support to people of every body size, age, sex, gender, race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic group. Here, you are not a diagnosis, but a valuable member of our community who deserves to be seen, heard, and validated.
Many who have gotten involved in our community have shared that there's no other recovery support like this one out there; that they feel safe, seen, heard, and validated; that they are learning creative ways yoga can be applied throughout daily life, and it's making a difference in their recovery. Professionals are benefiting from the education we provide, gaining skills and resources about the role of yoga in eating disorder recovery to bring into their classes and client work. It’s a blessing and honor to hold the space for others to feel supported in these ways.
