This article follows a path linking the discipline of authentic movement with Nature connectedness. This deep empathic practice seeks to change empathy from the interpersonal solely to an interspecies dialogue, cultivating a shift from human-focussed to an earthly perspective of the world. It offers the author ’ s reflections and examples from practice of an adapted model of the discipline of authentic movement which employs the roles of witness and mover outdoors to cultivate opportunities to experience participatory knowing from, and with, the more-than human world. There are enormous challenges to be met by the human species in the face of the climate catastrophe. This proposed creative, enactive, embodied, embedded model is another way to promote Nature connectedness to develop an ecological self which recognizes an ethical responsibility for the planet and its interdependence with humans.

Abstract This paper discusses the development, and frame of reference, for an intersubjective outdoor dance movement psychotherapy practice. Developing outdoor practice has raised my awareness, skills, understanding and application of nature-based interventions that support one-to-one DMP sessions with thriving human and more than-human ecological relationships. Key themes discussed as elements of practice are symbiotic relationships, cross-fertilisation of ideologies, sentient and animate reciprocity, earthly ethics, and metaphorical processes. The benefits of nature-based experiences for the embodied processes are exemplified in the therapeutic synchrony and outcomes of an allegorical client’s process. An additional positive outcome for clients is the significance of the outdoor safe space being a resource the client can return to without the therapist.

Abstract The topic of raving has not yet been addressed in dance/movement psychotherapy (DMP) literature, despite being a meaningful activity shown to facilitate personal transformation. Whilst studies on rave culture have highlighted its therapeutic benefits, none of them focus on recovering substance abusers. This research identifies links between raving and DMP, looking at what each practice can offer this client group. Three key commonalities were identified whilst reviewing the literature on raving, DMP and substance abuse: strengthening spirituality, enhancing one’s sense of self, and creating a sense of belonging. Through analysing data from participant interviews, my embodied responses and my own experiences, five more were revealed. Findings from this study were considered for their relevance in DMP clinical practice.

Abstract This article focuses on how holistic movement activities can support essential attachment processes and touching, loving and joyful moments between children and parents in refugee families. The research project presented, Moving Families, takes place in a therapeutic setting in a departure centre. The project was created in cooperation between Danish Red Cross and University of Copenhagen. The methodology is inspired by practitioner research and a phenomenological-inspired research approach and scenic descriptions are used to catch meaningful moments. The article illustrates how a holistic movement approach can create a ‘safe space’ that can support the families’ resilience processes, as well as encouraging empowerment. The findings show that movement processes must be approached with great sensitivity and awareness, as the emotional relationships in the families can be challenging. Lastly, the project indicates that play and holistic movement activities have great national and international potential for supporting empowerment and attachment processes in other families who find themselves in precarious and vulnerable situations.

Dee Wagner, O. S. Waisman
Abstract In this article, author Waisman’s work with mismatch combines with author Wagner’s work with polyvagal theory to illuminate the dance of mismatch in healing multi-generational trauma. Author Waisman first became familiar with the concept of mismatch as it relates to gestures and words. During situations of conflict between Israeli-Arab and Israeli-Jewish students, Waisman noticed participants displaying gestures expressing meaning that differed from the accompanying words. Looking at mismatch through a polyvagal-informed lens, therapists can understand how mismatch relates to trauma. Polyvagal theory illuminates the anatomy that inhibits movement expressions as well as the intensity of the awakening of inhibited movement expressions. In this article, the authors suggest that mismatch of gestures and words relates to the inhibition of particular movement expressions—those which dance/movement therapists recognise as the ‘fighting’ rhythms identified by Kestenberg et al.. Shahar-Levy, a dance/movement therapist, speaks of coming out of ‘emotive motor memory clusters’. Resmaa Menakem, author of My Grandmother’s Hands: Racialised Trauma and the Pathway to Mending Our Hearts and Bodies, speaks of the need to move through the pain to grow out of traumatic retentions. Therapists benefit from a deeper awareness of the mismatch moment when the ‘fighting’ rhythms awaken.
