Lecture 4: Aging
In lecture 4 we begin to trace body, energy and consciousness through later life development, discovering several primordial “pulses” in the human body: Vertical, Circular and Radial. Jeanne offers an original map of development that relates growth and aging in the body. We then check these insights against Harvard Grant Study findings and Erikson’s theories. Finally we review a little history of body psychotherapy and how death has been presented in this field historically, if at all.
“Watching energy move through the body, we can understand why it is hard to have a youthful body and wisdom at the same time. Could it be that we actually need our physical deterioration to find heart and wisdom? ”
