Experiential Yoga Group starting July 22 at Atlanta Center for Eating Disorders

Wednesday, July 22, 2009 The Atlanta Center for Eating Disorders will be restarting its Experiential Yoga group as part of our group therapy programs. This group will be held every Wednesday from 4pm to 5:30pm.

This group uses gentle Hatha yoga and yoga nidra (meditation/relaxation) to integrate themes of recovery into a yoga practice focusing on breath work, postures and body awareness. Participants identify intentions for each group such as balance, flexibility, acceptance or being gentle with yourself. Often what shows up in this practice (our reactive patterns and judgments) has implications for the over all recovery process. Gaining insight and awareness into our self defeating patterns will help us transcend our misperceptions and achieve greater self acceptance.

If you are interested in joining this group, please talk to your individual therapist. If you are not currently a patient at the Atlanta Center for Eating Disorders, you may call us at (770) 458-8711 x0 and we will be happy to give you more information about our therapy programs.
