Befriending Your Body Therapy Group
The Befriending Your Body Program is a unique psycho-educational trauma-informed 8-week Somatic Self-Compassion Recovery program for disordered eating and making peace with your body, food, and self! Rooted in Polyvagal Theory and the evidence-based practices of interoceptive awareness, self-compassion, and mindfulness; it offers a new path to healing your relationship with your body and food, and the path back to embodiment. Each week will include guided practices, self-reflections, and lectures, while using the book: Befriending Your Body by Dr. Ann Biasetti, as a companion to the program.
This group is not a replacement for psychotherapy or disordered eating treatment. Those with more severe disordered eating symptoms can still participate, however, they must also be followed by a dietician and psychotherapist.
A referral from a Hub health practitioner is required to join this group. Contact the Hub to find out if this group is a good match for you.
