Disclaimer - In this episode we talk about our experiences with disordered eating and disordered exercise behaviours/thoughts. Please take care if listening.

In this episode of the MyoMinds Podcast I speak with Amy Gardner. Amy is a registered dietitian with over 20 years of experience using psychology, mindfulness and yoga as tools to help improve peoples relationships with exercise and food. Amy is also the author of the book "iMove, Helping Your Client Heal From Compulsive Exercise" which educates around compulsive exercise and outlines the iMove Method.

During our discussion we spoke about:
