In this episode I speak to Jenelle Periard, a Breathwork Practitioner and founder of Beyond Your Breath about using breathwork as a tool for eating disorder recovery. In this episode we discuss:

- Jenelle’s relationship with food and her body which stemmed from being bullied and wanting to belong

- How she navigated anorexia, binge eating disorder and other disordered eating behaviours

- What breathwork is and how the different styles of break work vary in intensity depending on the intention of the practice

- The benefits of breathwork and the power of our breath

- How emotions can build up in our body and the need to process and release them

- How to get started and how often to do breathwork to reap the benefits
