The Song is You British Gestalt Journal Spring 2004, Volume 13, No. 2 Abstract:
Singing is central to human group formation. It facilitates contact
among group members, promoting social cohesiveness through organizing
and discharging of intense emotions. In Gestalt therapy practice,
singing experiments can be dynamic ways of working with clients. Looking
from the perspectives of neurobiology, infant development, anthropology,
biomusicology and sociology, this paper aims to show why experiments
with singing make highly effective therapeutic activities. |
