About the Yoga Programs
Eat Breathe Thrive is a structured yoga-based intervention that teaches four core skills (functional action, embodied intimacy, inner awareness, and self-regulation). The intervention includes yoga, experiential activities, psychoeducation, meditation, and discussion. Clients work on the skills with a facilitator and peer support group.
There are two versions of the intervention, which are designed for different levels of care:
-
Ideal for: Clients in acute phases of eating disorder recovery.
Offered in: Inpatient, residential, partial hospitalization, day treatment, intensive outpatient, and community settings
Format: Weekly or twice-weekly 2-hour sessions for 4 weeks
Eligibility: Anyone aged 14+ who is medically cleared for gentle movement
-
Ideal for: Clients stepping down from higher levels of care and/or clients with non-acute disordered eating/body image issues
Offered in: Residential, day treatment, outpatient, and community settings
Format: Weekly or twice weekly 2-hour sessions for 7 weeks
Eligibility: Anyone aged 14+ who is not in the acute phases of an eating disorder
