This book presents an overview of the latest psychological
knowledge about the application of mindfulness-based interventions
in the field of eating disorders. Increasingly, these interventions
are used in therapeutic practice. They encourage clients to process
their experience fully, as it arises, without judgement.
Mindfulness-based approaches, in particular, emphasize the
cultivation of moment to moment awareness of thoughts and feelings
as well as bodily sensations. In so doing, eating disorders present
an ideal context for the development of mindfulness. Indeed, it is
in the body that the emotional and relational struggles of clients
reveal themselves. The authors in this diverse volume share a
belief in the utility of using mindfulness-based practices to
address disordered eating. It features up to date research and
theory regarding mindfulness and the full spectrum of eating
disorders, from Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia Nervosa to Binge
Eating Disorder. In addition, it explores how professionals can
utilize mindfulness in their own practices, in the context of both
individual and group treatment. This book was originally published
as a special issue of Eating Disorders: the Journal of Treatment
and Prevention.
