Yoga and Eating Disorders bridges the knowledge and practice gaps between mental health providers and yoga practitioners who work with clients suffering from disordered eating. Combining the wisdom of 20 experts in eating disorders treatment and yoga practice, editors Carolyn Costin and Joe Kelly show how and why yoga's mind-body connection facilitates treatment and recovery. This invaluable resource for mental health and yoga professionals, as well as individuals and family members struggling with eating disorders, explores the use yoga in therapy, ways yoga teachers can recognize and respond to disordered eating, recovery stories, research into yoga’s impact on symptoms, and much more.
"This book offers safe and effective ways to use the Tradition of Yoga for Healing. Safe because the authors are willing to draw boundaries on how to practice Yoga effectively. And effective because these authors have used the laboratory of personal practice in their own lives as well as with their clients. As one with a PhD concentrated in Yoga, I can recommend this book as a good resource!" ~Bob Butera, PhD author of Yoga Therapy for Stress and Anxiety and founder of YogaLife Institute in Pennsylvania
