Body Movement and Dance in Psychotherapy November 1, 2013 Himmat Kaur Victoria, Christine Caldwell 11 citations
Conscious breathing practices have long been used for healing, but their integration into body psychotherapy (BP) remains unsystematic. This article translates earlier theoretical work into practical clinical applications for BP professionals. It proposes six clinical themes for using breath in BP, a balanced breathing exercise, and four clinical models for integration. Recommendations for future research and training in this area are provided.
