Using a contemporary synthesis of Jungian and Post-Jungian imaginal perspectives, animate ecological phenomenology, somatics and recent scholarship in dance movement and progressive spiritualities, this unique book discusses how the promotion of a fluid relationship between imagination and movement can bring the mover back into relationship with soul and spirit. This connection with soul and spirit is considered as an essential and powerful resource in mental health. The book provides a rich digest of theory and produces a clear framework for the application of transpersonal theories to Dance Movement Psychotherapy (DMP) practice, writing and research, illustrating the use and value of transpersonal perspectives through detailed case studies.Providing spiritual, soulful and mythological perspectives on DMP rooted in theory and practice, this book will be essential reading for dance movement psychotherapists, drama psychotherapists, expressive arts therapists, and dance movement psychotherapy students, drama psychotherapy students and arts therapy students.

With this book, Jill Hayes joins the many voices arising throughout the world urging the recovery of a fading sense of how the cultivation of the infinite possibilities of body movement are crucial not only for negotiating the challenges of everyday life, but for the development of the soul itself. She articulates clearly how moving in depth, into and through suffering, opens one's heart to the world, finding the courage and compassion that so many spiritual traditions have made the ultimate goal of their works. It is an important work of philosophy and vision, a healing work.
