4. 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?

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.
