Authentic Movement and Jung, Part 2Posted in Movement , Jung , Healing , Authentic Movment |
Just a quick thought here, on the connection between Authentic and Jung. I guess one of the main reasons why it is so easy to jump to Jung when doing Authentic Movement, is that we do the movement in a dreamstate. Movement is usually done with eyes closed, and after a few minutes, if not immediately, most practitioners have moved into an altered state. The focus that is active in Authentic Movement, like the focus required in meditation, changes the physiology of the body, bringing one into this trance state. So naturally, after moving, then writing or drawing, thoughts often go to symbols, to interpretation of this movement time/this trance, as if looking at a dream.
