Natural Health > Bioenergetics
Developed by Dr. Alexander Lowen in the 1960s, bioenergetics is a body-oriented form of psychotherapy. According to Lowen, an individual's history of dealing with stress and trauma is "programmed" into his muscles. As a bodywork approach, bioenergetics focuses on the pattern of muscular tension in a person and how that tension directly relates to the person's emotional history and childhood relationships. Bioenergetic exercises, such as breathing techniques, seek to open blocked and tense areas of the body, that are linked with buried memories, enabling past traumas to be explored.
