ABSTRACT Yoga and its relation to embodiment and disordered eating has only recently received research attention. Nevertheless, early research indicates that yoga is an effective tool in the prevention and treatment of eating disorders. It is assumed that yoga ameliorates eating disorder symptoms and facilitates a shift from negative towards positive body image and well-being by cultivating positive embodiment (i.e., the ability to feel a sense of connection between mind and body). In order to provide the context of the constructs of disordered eating, embodiment, and yoga, this article presents a brief overview and conceptualization of these constructs. The three major eating disorders and current treatment methods are described. Further, the philosophical roots and theoretical models of embodiment are delineated and their communal core features are outlined. Lastly, the origin, basic principles, and modern interpretations of yoga are discussed.

饮食失调、具体化和瑜伽：概念概述

摘要 瑜伽及其与具体化和饮食失调的关系最近才受到研究关注。尽管如此，早期研究表明瑜伽是预防和治疗饮食失调的有效工具。据推测，瑜伽可以通过培养积极的体现（即感受身心联系的能力）来改善饮食失调症状，并促进从消极的身体形象和幸福感转变为积极的身体形象和幸福感。为了提供饮食紊乱、具身化和瑜伽结构的背景，本文对这些结构进行了简要概述和概念化。描述了三种主要的饮食失调和当前的治疗方法。更多，描述了体现的哲学根源和理论模型，并概述了它们的共同核心特征。最后，讨论了瑜伽的起源、基本原则和现代解释。
