Special Guest Teacher!
Special Guest Session: Lori Lynn Meader
Sunday October 17th 2021 11 am - 1 pm EDT
Please join Lori Lynn Meader, Psychotherapist, Eating Disorders Specialist & Nia Black Belt for “Moving To Feel – Feeling To Heal: Nia & Eating Disorders”
Eating disorders have little to do with food, weight or body image. Eating disorders emerge when feelings cannot find their way up and out and have no pathway for processing. The body becomes the target for all the discomfort and uncertainty that lies under the surface. Together we will explore how eating disorders are associated with forbidden feelings. When we compliment psychotherapeutic work with gentle, safe, contained movement, integration of fragmented parts and emotions begins to happen. In this 90-minute workshop, we will explore, share, move, ask questions and learn with and from one another.
Lori Lynn Meader, LCSW has a private psychotherapy practice in NYC offering a multi-dimensional approach in her work with individuals, couples and groups. She specializes in the treatment of women and men with eating disorders, body image disturbances, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss. She has experience working with people in the arts with performance anxiety, creative blocks and those who may be in career transition.
Lori is a Nia Teacher and has served on a team of professionals conducting support groups for the American Anorexia & Bulimia Association (AABA). She is a member of National Eating Disorders Association (NEDA

What participants have said:
- This was my first TAOS session and I just wanted to tell you how inspiring I found it. So many ideas, so much joy and fun!
- As Moving to heal was the natural next step, the TAOS sessions with Casey Bernstein were enlightening and gave me practical tools, examples and more sense.
- I register for every course Casey masterfully crafts...and I danced away refreshed and rejuvenated every time!
- I did the previous series and it was fantastic.
A great complement to the M2H training, and for all Nia teachers as well.
I highly recommend it!
