What is Yoga Therapy?

Yoga is an ancient practice that has been in existence for thousands of years. Many countries have taken this practice, of eastern origin, and have turned it into yoga classes that are popular in studios and gyms. Yoga therapy differs from a yoga studio and gym class. 

Yoga therapy is the application of teachings and practices in a therapeutic context in order to support a consistent yoga practice that will increase self-awareness and engage the client’s energy in the direction of desired goals, such as eliminating, reducing, or managing symptoms, improving function, preventing the occurrence or reoccurrence of the underlying causes of illness, improving health and wellbeing, and helping clients change their relationship to and identification with their condition.


Yoga therapists are now certified through a governing and accrediting body, the International Association of Yoga Therapists (IAYT), based on evidenced-based practice and peer reviewed literature.

Yoga is a body-centered therapy that can be interwoven with traditional therapies. Yoga therapy also involves intertwining the yoga philosophy that often mirrors traditional therapies. Yoga therapy involves an assessment and development a client-centered recovery plan based on the assessment, along with implementation and evaluation of the yoga therapy treatment plan and communication with the treatment team including physicians, psychotherapists, dietitians, yoga practitioners and other healthcare professionals.

What is the Mindfulness Yoga Therapy Training in Eating Disorders Certificate Program?

Reconnect with Food® Yoga Therapy combines the healing modalities of breath, movement, yoga philosophy, dialogue, along with a sequenced flow and meditation intertwined with traditional psychotherapy intervention models. The focus is not exclusively on the yoga postures. The chakras, along with the eight limbs of yoga are intertwined as themes in the healing process. The body’s chakras parallel two chains of nerve bundles located on each side of the spinal cord. Yoga involves spinal movements that activate the body’s chakras and can easily release a person’s physical tension and pain, which then in turn can help release stored emotions. 


A variety of conventional methods have been used to treat eating disorders including:

  • Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). CBT is based on the idea that thoughts can cause feelings.  Pure CBT involves thought stoppage, reframing and extinction of thoughts. 
  • Dialectic behavior therapy (DBT), which emphasizes techniques for emotion regulation, concepts of distress tolerance, acceptance and mindful awareness.
  • Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) a combination of CBT therapy and meditative practices.
  • Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT) which uses an approach to embrace the moment fully so clients can gain the skills to re-contextualize and accept their emotions.

The Mindfulness Yoga Therapy Training Program in Eating Disorders weaves these traditional methods into our training methodology with an emphasis on mindfulness. Mindfulness yoga incorporates awareness of the body’s functions and feelings. Mindfulness helps individuals understand their own thought processes. Mindful awareness, along with mindful eating and nutrition principles are also incorporated in this training program. Mindful awareness is about being in tune with how one feels and having an awareness of what is going on inside one’s body. Through yoga, meditation and practice, individuals who struggle with eating disorders learn to trust and understand the messages given by their own body and begin to focus on inner qualities verses, personal appearance.

Studies have shown that mindful yoga and meditation can affect the cerebral cortex, improving focus and awareness. The cerebral cortex is the center of the brain that is responsible for impulses, irrational thoughts, and behaviors. Activating the cerebral cortex can diminish the impulsivity along with irrational thoughts and behaviors involved in eating disorders, substance abuse and related addictions.

Testimonials for Beverly Price’s Eating Disorders Supervision

"While working in private practice, I sought out professional supervision from Beverly to support me in care of patients with eating disorders. As we began, Beverly was very professional, organized and clear about expectations and the nature of supervision. During multiple sessions with another dietitian and I, Beverly resourced us diligently with tools for intake, assessment and monitoring. She also generously shared some of her own resources with us to fill gaps or to address potential pitfalls. In addition, we were introduced to to outside resources and tools that we could adapt for our own practice. Throughout the process of supervision, she listened very carefully to challenges being presented, and would ask guiding questions to help us to identify solutions at hand. I found her contributions to be insightful, warmly supportive and relevant to my practice. Beverly's wisdom from her own lived professional experience is truly a gift."

History of the Mindfulness Yoga Therapy Training Program in Eating Disorders

When I brought yoga to the eating disorders community in 2003 through yoga and group discussion that evolved into a comprehensive eating disorders treatment program by 2008, I was inspired to offer an adjunct to eating disorders treatment. By incorporating yoga therapy into the eating disorders treatment program, Inner Door Center® that I formerly owned and operated, it offered patients the opportunity to get out of their head, begin to feel their body and express their feelings, along with open their hearts and become more aware of the purpose that their eating disorder served. 

Yoga is a mindful practice that helps to create awareness. The first step to change is awareness. In the Reconnect with Food yoga therapy system that I created for the treatment of eating disorders at the Inner Door Center®, boasting wonderful testimonials we were able to generate outcome data that showed significant improvement in the EAT-26 pre and post treatment along with significant improvement in quality-of-life indicators.


Because so many eating disorders professionals around the country and internationally were intrigued by what we were doing, they too wanted to learn our method in incorporating yoga therapy in the treatment of eating disorders. I created the mindfulness yoga therapy training in eating disorders for professionals boasting many graduates of this program.

I sold the Inner Door Center® in 2016 and retained the rights to the Inner Door Center® mindfulness yoga therapy training program in eating disorders for professionals. After leaving the Inner Door Center® in 2016, I continued to offer the mindfulness yoga therapy training program in eating disorders for professionals. Since COVID, it has transformed into an online, self-directed and interactive program. 

History of Beverly Price’s Entrepreneurial Journey

I started my first nutrition private practice which included patient counseling, corporate wellness, community nutrition programs, and public relations for food along with pharmaceutical companies. My colleague and I even wrote a successful nutrition book that was ahead of its time. I sold the business to a like-minded registered dietitian in the community who carried on the legacy of the practice.

After selling the practice I wanted to share my secrets to a successful private practice, so I developed self-directed manuals and conducted workshops around the country for registered dietitians looking to start a private nutrition practice, along with individual business consulting for registered dietitians. I also developed the Jump Start Business school® entrepreneurial curriculum for university dietetics programs and dietetic internships that still use my materials. At the time, I was the only dietitian providing these extensive materials and workshops. Today, so many dietitians have followed suit.


I continued these workshops, along with my self-directed manuals, when I re-entered private practice in 2004 and throughout most of the life of my eating disorders treatment center. During my ownership and operation of the multi-disciplinary staffed Inner Door Eating Disorders Treatment Center, I attained accreditation by the Joint Commission, obtained state licensing as a partial hospitalization program and forged many insurance contracts. In addition to the program development and marketing aspects, running my treatment center prepared me to consult with similar entities and individuals looking to start this type of business.

In addition, based on my history of selling two businesses, I now consult with registered dietitians preparing to sell their private practice. I have also written business-related articles for Today’s Dietitian, along with the Nutrition Entrepreneurs and Nutrition and Dietetic Educators and Preceptors Dietetic Practice Groups (DPGs).

History of Beverly Price’s Career in Eating Disorders Treatment

I was one of the first registered dietitians in the country that owned and operated a nutrition private nutrition practice. In my practice, I treated patients with eating disorders in collaboration with psychotherapists, psychiatrists, and internists.

When I sold my private practice, I did not step away from patient treatment for too long. Following a yoga teacher training where I completed a project on yoga and eating disorders, I then re-entered private practice that started with nutrition and yoga discussion groups that organically emerged into a fully staffed, multidisciplinary team. My facility was a Joint Commission and state-licensed comprehensive eating disorders treatment center offering partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programs, along with outpatient services.


My membership and involvement in iaedp have afforded me the opportunity to meet eating disorders treatment professionals from around the world and become a regular presenter at the annual iaedp symposiums and contributor to iaedp Member Share blog. I am also involved in the COMC Connection, Outreach, and Mentoring Committee (COMC) and a member of the Heartland iaedp Chapter.

I have supervised many dietitians individually and in groups, along with providing supervision to the Australia & New Zealand Academy (ANZAED) of Eating Disorders members.

Some of my other eating disorders article contributions and interviews have been included in We are Diabetes, Eating Disorder Hope, Gurze publications and other outlets. These are featured on my blog.
