Bodylistening is
an accessible and engaging introduction to the wide-ranging field of body
psychotherapy, which encompasses healing and therapeutic approaches that aim to
treat the mind, body and spirit as a unified whole. In Bodylistening,
Tim Brown covers underlying theory and historical background to provide context
to the origins of this growth area of therapeutic practice. He outlines what
can happen in the therapy space between two people with an interest in
exploring embodiment. The emphasis is on face-to-face therapeutic encounter and
the text includes the sort of words and phrases which might arise between
client and therapist in a session. Also woven into the book are stories of the
author's own encounters with embodiment and therapy, plus examples from the
world of the other-than-human.
After outlining the basics of body psychotherapy, the
author introduces the bodylistening approach that he practices before moving on
to explore the specifics of breath, movement, touch, character, trauma and embodiment.
The book features suggestions for personal inquiry, which invite the reader to
pause and deepen into their own experience. As somatic practice lends itself
well to groupwork, a selection of workshop experimental ideas are offered. Each
chapter ends with a list of suggestions for further reading, which are some of the
author's favourite resources. Finally, endnotes provide details of original
sources and other background material.
