    Agency, Healing and Recovery with Chelsea Roff

    In this episode Harriet is joined by Chelsea Roff Founder and Director of Eat Breathe Thrive. Chelsea is an author, researcher, and educator, and has spent nearly a decade pioneering integrative health programs for people with mental health challenges. In 2011, Roff offered the first Yoga for Eating Disorders program to clients at a treatment center where she had once been treated for anorexia.  This later became the heart of Eat Breathe Thrive: a seven-week intervention that combines yoga, meditation, and psychoeducation to help people recover from eating disorders. Two years later, she raised $50,000 in fifty days to kickstart Eat Breathe Thrive. Since its inception, she has brought the program to scale in thirty-two U.S states and seven countries. Prior to her work in the charitable sector, Chelsea worked as a researcher and grant writer in a psychoneuroimmunology laboratory.  Her early research focused on how yoga affects the immune systems of people with HIV/AIDs and cancer. She is currently overseeing a research initiative on the Eat Breathe Thrive program, which will be the largest ever study on a yoga programme for eating disorders. This year, Chelsea took on an additional role as UK Operations Director for The Give Back Yoga Foundation.  She is currently spearheading the initiative to bring The Give Back Yoga Foundation programs to scale in the United Kingdom and throughout Europe. Harriet and Chelsea talked about yoga for eating disorders, starting our mornings with word puzzles and practising agency.  Connect with Chelsea:Website: www.eatbreathethrive.orgWebsite: givebackyoga.org Connect with Harriet:Website: nourishyogatraining.comInstagram: @nourishyogatrainingTwitter: @nourishyogattFacebook: @nourishyogatraining Produced by Story Ninety-Four in Oxford.
