Trauma-Informed Yoga Therapy for Eating Disorders in Pennsylvania

Trauma-Informed Yoga Therapy for Eating Disorders in Pennsylvania

Many young women struggle with the effects of trauma during their lives, but this can especially be true for those who are working toward healing from eating disorders.

What is Trauma-Informed Yoga?

Trauma-informed yoga is a gentle and person-centered approach to traditional yoga practices that strives to empower participants and help them to reconnect with their bodies in a safe and therapeutic way. For those who have eating disorders, trauma-informed yoga can also help with managing some of the unique struggles that may come with these disorders, including feelings of anxiety, shame, and low self-worth.

Because trauma-informed yoga uses simple, accessible movements and lets participants determine their own experience, it can offer a safe, nonjudgmental, and healing setting for participants. Additionally, it can help deepen the mind-body connection and promote needed relaxation.
