1. 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.

3. How to mediate in religious conflicts? : From Desacralisation of Conflicts to Sacralisation of Peace. Towards a complementary complex approach
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Teologiska institutionenSammanfattning : This research is 1) a critical conceptual analysis of the existing theoretical framework of desacralisation of conflicts developed by professor Isak Svensson in relation to mediation practice in religious conflicts with explicit religious claims; and 2) a critical argumentation for the development of an alternative and complementary initial attempt of mediation methodology suggested by myself: sacralisation of peace. This methodology is based on aspects of the worldview conflicts theoretical framework of professor Jayne Seminare Docherty, the ritual theory for peacebuilding as proposed by professor Lisa Schirch, and a plural conceptual notion of peace.

5. Häxor på nätet : En kvalitativ innehållsanalys av occulture i Witchtubers beskrivningar av rituell praktik och uppvisande av objekt i anslutning till högtiden Samhain
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på grundnivå, Karlstads universitet/Fakulteten för humaniora och samhällsvetenskap (from 2013)Sammanfattning : The purpose of this essay is to concisely present an overview of the Pagan ritual practice before the Christianization of Ireland and the United Kingdom, which enables tracking down the connection and relationship between them and three American and British, Wiccan Youtube-creators nicknamed Witchtubers. Witchtuber’s description of Samhain and objects visible in chosen videos are analyzed from Christopher Partridge’s theory of Occulture along with the parameters of acceptance, harmonization and the centralization of Goddess-worship concluded by previous studies.
