Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effectiveness of two types of intervention (Hatha Yoga and FSB From Feeling to Seeing the Body - Embodied Experience Intervention for body image) on eating behaviour and body dissatisfaction in females aged 16-25 with eating disorders. The main questions the study aims to answer are: * Do Hatha Yoga and FSB Intervention have an impact on eating behavior and reductions in body dissatisfaction? * How do Hatha Yoga and FSB Intervention influence underlying mechanisms such as embodiment, interoceptive awareness, body and functionality appreciation, mindfulness and self-compassion? Researchers will compare the outcomes with a control group that will receive only standard treatment to determine whether the specific Hatha Yoga and FSB interventions have an impact on body dissatisfaction and eating behaviors. Participants will be divided into three groups: * Control Group (C): patients will continue with treatment as usual (TAU) which consists of periodic psychiatric, psychotherapeutic, nutritional and dietetic visits. * Hatha Yoga Group (Y): patients will continue TAU and will additionally attend one weekly Hatha Yoga session. * From Feeling to Seeing the Body Group (FSB): patients will continue TAU and will additionally attend one weekly FSB session.
