“…[18][19][20][21] The movement of a human body contains information about identity 22 as well as a variety of different attributes such as sex, [23][24][25] emotional states, 26,27 and body weight. [28][29][30] All of these attributes are socially relevant 31 and probably play an important role in body image formation.…”

Objective: The aim of the present study was to find out whether in bulimia nervosa the perceptual component of a disturbed body image is restricted to the overestimation of one's own body dimensions (static body image) or can be extended to a misperception of one's own motion patterns (dynamic body image).Method: Participants with bulimia nervosa (n ¼ 30) and normal controls (n ¼ 55) estimated their body dimensions by means of a photo distortion technique and their walking patterns using a biological motion distortion device.Results: Not only did participants with bulimia nervosa overestimate their own body dimensions, but also they perceived their own motion patterns corresponding to a higher BMI than did controls. Static body image was correlated with shape/ weight concerns and drive for thinness, whereas dynamic body image was associated with social insecurity and body image avoidance. Conclusion:In bulimia nervosa, body image disturbances can be extended to a dynamic component.

“…The attribution of meaning to movement has been claimed by many including Laban and Lawrence (1974) and others employing the theory, for example, Dell (1977); Ramsden (2004); Lamb and Watson (1979); Moore (1982); Moore and Kaoru (1988); Newlove and Dalby (2005) LMA in particular has led the field in DMP with reference to the assessment and diagnosis of, for example, personality as in North (1972), and various mental disorders such as schizophrenia (Higgins, 2004) and to those with irritable bowel disease and eating disorders (Lausberg, von Wietersheim and Feiereis, 1996). Such authors illustrate how the system can be utilised as an assessment methodology for the planning of sessional work with a range of populations.…”

It is proposed herewith that the integration of thought and emotion is felt through the body. It has been agreed that thought is embodied cognition and that our earliest learning is implicit, through the body, and non-verbal. Embodiment and Embodied Simulation (ES) (Gallese, 2011) represent controversial topics in the philosophy of mind (Clark, 1998) and cognitive neuroscience (Gallagher, 2015a(Gallagher, , 2015bGallese and Sinigaglia, 2011a; Gallese, 2014). As a result of the advances in these areas of research there is a need to re-conceptualize our understanding of the mechanisms/processes involved in DMP. Could ES be applied to the psychology of movement? This article attempts to apply this theory of embodiment to the practice of Authentic Movement (AM) and Laban Movement Analysis (LMA). The theory of ES is proposed as one possible explanation of how the role of the 'witness' in AM comes to know their inner experience whilst in the presence of a mover which may lead to an 'offering' to that mover from the witness' conscious body (Adler, 2002). Furthermore, there is an examination of how ES connects to the task of movement observation and how meaning is arrived at from the various movement patterns observed.

Body, Movement and Dance in Psychotherapy

The role of embodiment within contemporary psychotherapy practice and its discussion are gathering momentum, and are part of a paradigm shift in psychotherapy in which theory and practice are being reformulated. Body Psychotherapy (BP) and Dance Movement Psychotherapy (DMP) are playing a leading role in these deliberations. Although these two professions have separate professional bodies, distinct theoretical grounding and clinical methodology, they both place enormous value on the central role of the body and its movement as indicators of relational problems, and as agents of therapeutic change. There are few authors comparing and contrasting Body Psychotherapy and Dance Movement Psychotherapy although they have much in common as they are both embodied, enactive psychotherapies. However, neither their overlaps in theory, methodology and some of their clinical practice nor their distinct character have been sufficiently delineated. This article elucidates some similarities and differences in fundamental assumptions, compares and contrasts definitions and terms, and considers common and contrasting theoretical perspectives, techniques and methods. It is expected that this will contribute to the on-going discussion of the articulation of core characteristics in both professions and will facilitate a better understanding and collaboration between them.
