Abstract
The aim of this paper is to communicate an elaboration developed from an interdisciplinary meeting whose central axis of reflection was the “body”.
We understand the body as a place of resonance for all the subject’s experiences, which become meaningfully inscribed throughout life. These inscriptions are expressed through bodily language, which may be approached from the perspective of health and/or illness.
From a state of helplessness and undifferentiation at birth, the human infant follows a path involving countless affective-bodily operations that gradually allow them to inhabit their own body, to settle there, and ultimately to be able to dwell there.
Through this process, the subject constructs a relational style with their body, with others, and with their environment.
In our professional practice, we include the language of the body, using techniques that enable the subject to:
- connect with their own body;
- become aware of the record of their history in the body;
- recognize the presence of the body in relationships;
- resignify bodily messages;
- give importance to the messages of the body.
