Draft for research-creation
Research proposal
A study on soma and soul
Inspiration
- awareness of mental overload/saturation following the festival / thesis
- inner call for change reinvent myself stance of re-creation
- therapeutic process to "unfold" including three-month retreat in Asia
- PLAY
Previous cycle
- transdisciplinary initiative to make respiratory care playful[1]
- conception of a methodology for thousands of people to converge despite their different realities/knowledge systems — key learnings on the right[2]
- hosting the festival "taking care together" to discuss inclusive ways to take care of oneself and the other [3]
Aim of research
To explore how somatic practices can unfold self-consciousness / mindset.
- understanding of body sensations (soma)
- awareness of sensations (mapping in the body, perceptual representation, degree of finesse, natural cycles)
- coping with sensations (for ex. aversion of blows)
- capacity to access non-conscious memories
- remembering dreams at waking up
- relatedness of symptoms/hinderances with specific contexts
- access to intergenerational/metaphysical lives
Preserving our Humanity in times of artifice. Shifting from survival to fulfilling living.
Comparative practices
- Cave Diving[4], a sport in restricted environments that requires high self-awareness
- Somatic Art Therapy[5], a form of psychotherapy through the arts to
- Systema,[6] an internal martial art[7] based on free movement, relaxation and self-awareness
- Vipassana[8], a liberation meditation approach to break free from multiplying craving and aversion to sensations
- Dreamwork as inspired by Carl Gustav Jung[9]
- other soma-based practices (chanting, emancipatory theatre, ...)
Research principles
Focus | Approach | Description |
---|---|---|
Paradigm | socio-constructivist, naturalistic inquiry[10] | research is based on traceable reasoning in non-artificial, subjective contexts |
Ethics | participatory-action-research ethics[11] | the research process must actively generate benefits for the people involved |
Process | creation-as-research[12] | knowledge emerges through iterative performance/intervention |
Disciplinarity | transdisciplinarity[13] | knowledge production embraces complexity through a plurality of perspectives |
Theoretical angle | emancipatory, critical public health[14] | research contributes to social justice by challenging socio-political norms that produce inequality |
Methodology | experiential, self, performative | |
Data collection | illustrated notebook based on dreamwork, interoception, introception | |
Data analysis | meta-narrative | |
Data interpretation | ||
Dissemination | libre/open access publications incl. research notebook | freely adaptable, editable documentation released throughout the process |
Theoretical assumptions / model
On Life
- each and every living being is driven by a constructive, contributive purpose (constitution)[15]
- the Spirit preexists and survives the physical body[16]
On Health and Disease
- the Human being is an ecosystem where billions of living being coexist[17]
- holistic body mind spirit
- hence possible to understand health different perspectives, which should ideally be integrated[18]
- disease is a natural outcome of - anti-psychiatry (Thomas Szasz, Michel Foucault, Roberto Freire, ...)
- unfinished movement resulting of shock / symptom not expressed (van der Kolk 1994)
- imbalance in Dynamic Equilibrium[19]
Recovery / Healing
- inhibition of tought[20]
- psycho healing - jung
- healing requires a shift of consciousness
- reconsolidation of emotional (implicit) memory (Levine)
- Scaer 2001: process memory,
- ledoux 2005
- immune system adequate / spontaneous / habits
Expected results
- transdisciplinary model towards somatic fullness
- inner world as a reflect of the environment
