Can yoga help in therapy for eating disorders such as bulimia, anorexia or compulsive overeating? To date, there are already many studies that have studied this issue. And they all clearly say: “Yes, yoga helps with treatment, and also helps restore health and develop a positive outlook on the body, appearance and life in general. Therefore, many psychologists working with eating disorders are increasingly offering themselves, or in collaboration with yoga therapists, supportive yoga courses. However, there is also evidence that different styles of yoga help differently for different types of food addiction, as well as under different circumstances , such as age, depth of addiction, health problems. Anyone who has tried yoga has come across how many different directions there are in this ancient practice. It can be fast and intense, or slow and restorative, and it will all be yoga. Different styles of yoga use different techniques that produce different results. Unfortunately, not all yoga teachers use yoga effectively, taking into account the characteristics of people with eating disorders and selecting the practice specifically for them. That’s why it’s so important that classes for people with eating disorders are conducted by a yoga therapist, and not just a yoga instructor. An experienced teacher usually sees which style is best suited for one or another person, and, even more so, for a person with some kind of physical or mental disorder. In accordance with this, the most suitable exercises and rhythm of the lesson are selected.

In addition to the ability to relax, they need the ability to easily and quickly switch from relaxation to tone and back. From a physiological point of view, they need exercises to restore the gastrointestinal tract, restore hormonal changes and the cardiovascular system of the body. Compulsive overeating requires a course of yoga that combines goal-setting, determination, calm and confident focus and self-discipline. They need poses, meditations and pranayama that help them express themselves, transform their anger and learn to give. In yoga or yoga therapy classes for people with eating disorders, especially anorexia and bulimia, or for teenagers, a special approach to the construction of the class itself is required. For example, for people with anorexia, the practice should not be forceful or fast paced, but still active enough to keep interest. It is important for them to experience effort in practice, while for their recovery they need to get away from it.
