Formative Psychology Quote


"Self influence through voluntary effort opens the door to our generative and imaginative interior. Our body is the theater where we form characters with their own sensorial and logical facts and their own motoric, intuitive, poetic experiences. This internal dimension expands the world inside our skin, and supports the inventing and reshaping of behavior, feeling and meaning. Over time, using voluntary effort, we can build a personal internal anatomic architecture. We experience this personal anatomic architecture as an internal dimension of human knowing. By forming our somatic interior, we do as D.H. Lawrence urges: we build our ship of death to carry us to the other side. When we do this we personalize our life and death." Keleman, S. (2007). A Biological Vision. The USA Body Psychotherapy Journal , 6 (1), 10-19.
