Parts I and II of the book provide a general description of somatic-psychoeducation, as seen through Bois's career path and personal experience. Part III introduces the idea of "bodymind tuning," which involves methods of touch, movement, introspection, and verbal dialogue to connect the patient more fully to his or her body, thoughts, and behavior. Part IV explores the origin and evolution of physical and psychological pain and explains how somatic-psychoeducation helps people heal. This is an ideal reference for movement educators and therapists, as well as those seeking a holistic approach to their own healing.
Industry Reviews
--Pierre Paill , PhD
"Although somewhat skeptical about alternative treatments, in general, I have had personal experience with this method and have found it to be quite powerful. It is very effective in fostering the development of inner awareness and has great therapeutic potential in this regard. Demonstrating the validity of alternative therapies presents a difficult challenge with respect to creating an appropriate experimental design. Danis Bois and his colleagues are to be commended for their efforts in exploring a scientific understanding of this phenomenon through their work at the Modern University of Lisbon."
