Yoga for Eating Disorders: Cultivating Self Love, Self Care & a Sense of Community with Chelsea Roff



Yoga is a tool that helps bring connection to our bodies, the communities around us and to highest expression of who we want to be. Today's guest Chelsea Roff is sharing how Yoga is also one of the most impactful tools in eating disorder recovery.


Chelsea is the founder of Eat Breathe Thrive. She is a yoga and mindfulness instructor, research collaborator, and thought leader in neuroscience and integrative health. An eating disorder survivor, Roff has an intimate understanding of the depths of human suffering and the conditions necessary for individuals and communities to thrive.


She created Eat Breathe Thrive 10 years ago and today has helped more than 7,000 people from over 42 countries on their recovery journey.
