There is a growing body of research exploring the effectiveness of
yoga as a pathway to positive embodiment for those at-risk for and
struggling with eating disorders. This book provides a
comprehensive look at the state of the field. This book begins with
an introduction to positive embodiment, eating disorders, and yoga.
It also offers insights into the personal journey of each of the
editors as they share what brought them to this work. The first
section of this book explores the empirical and conceptual
rationale for approaching eating disorder prevention and treatment
through the lens of embodiment and yoga. The next section of the
text integrates the history of embodiment theory as related to yoga
and eating disorders, provides the logic model for change and
guidance for researchers, and offers a critical social justice
perceptive of the work to date. The third section addresses the
efficacy of yoga in the prevention and treatment of eating
disorders including a comprehensive review and meta-analysis as
well as five research studies demonstrating the various approaches
to exploring the preventative and therapeutic effects of yoga for
disordered eating. The final section of this book closes with a
chapter on future directions and offers guidance for what is next
in both practice and research. The chapters in this book were
originally published as a special edition of Eating Disorders: The
Journal of Treatment & Prevention.
Embodiment refers to the attunement of the inner and outer self.
Cognitions are aligned with the sensing and feeling body. Further,
in an attuned experience of self, positive embodiment is maintained
by a set of internally focused tools, such as self-care practices
that support physiological health, emotional well-being and
effective cognitive functioning. For those who suffer from eating
disorders, this is not the case; in fact, the opposite is true.
Disordered thinking, an unattuned sense of self and negative
cognitions abound. Turning this thinking around is key to client
resilience and treatment successes. Catherine Cook-Cottone provides
tools for clinicians working with clients to restore their healthy
selves and use their bodies as a positive resource for healing and
long-term health. The book goes beyond traditional treatments to
talk about mindful self-care, mindful eating, yoga and other
practices designed to support self-regulation.
Help your child stay calm when anxiety takes hold. In The
Mindfulness Workbook for Anxious Kids, two licensed psychologists
offer fun and effective mindfulness and emotion regulation
activities to help kids cope with anxiety, panic, stress, fear, and
worry. Between school, friends, and just growing up, it's normal
for kids to feel worried or anxious some of the time. But if your
child's anxiety is getting in the way of achieving goals or living
life, they may need a little extra help managing stress and
difficult feelings. This workbook is a great place to start. The
Mindfulness Workbook for Anxious Kids provides engaging and
evidence-based activities grounded in mindfulness practices and
dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to help kids stay calm and
balance their emotions-whether they're at school, with friends, or
at home. Using the skills outlined in this workbook, your child
will learn to manage anxiety associated with daily life, anxiety
disorders, and trauma. The workbook also addresses specific anxiety
issues, such as panic, separation anxiety, social anxiety, and
phobias. Emotions can be confusing, and negative or difficult
emotions are often the cause of anxiety in children. But emotions
cannot be avoided. This workbook will help your child make friends
with their emotions, understand them, and use them effectively.
