3. Deep Breath - An auto-reflexive account of a collective journey into the healing practices of shared, embodied, breathing meditation
Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Centrum för teologi och religionsvetenskap; Lunds universitet/Religionshistoria och religionsbeteendevetenskapSammanfattning : When we first encounter past traumatic experiences in ourselves, we are left with a conundrum; how are we to move forward in our everyday lives and thrive, rather than just cope and survive? By participating in the Belly2Belly ritual, providing analytical reflections and a detailed account from an auto-reflexive perspective, I attempt in this thesis to show, through the Belly2Belly ritual, how participants progress from a state of ill-being into a state of well-being, a form of evolution of well-being. This, it can be argued, takes form when the ritual participants are provided with the opportunity to engage with their unconscious habitus and autonomous physiological reactions through embodiment of intimacy.

Kandidat-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/HDK-Valand - Högskolan för konst och designSammanfattning : In this essay I intend to investigate what role contemporary art plays in the exploration of fundamental aspects of reality - and the importance of it. My premise for this text is that dealing with the fundamental aspects of reality has value - the way life is felt and how the world is perceived can be highly dependent on the fundamental understanding of reality.
