Abstract:

This thesis offers the first anthropological description of Movement Medicine, a contemporary movement meditation practice that blends together and is informed by different ingredients such as ecstatic dance, shamanism, voice work, and psychotherapeutic elements. Both the practice and the thesis emphasise movement, relationship with self, others and the world, ritual and ceremony. My argument is that the combination of different traditions that inform the practice, together with its metaphoric language and use of a variety of symbols opens different ways of viewing and managing life processes,

Abstract:

Background: The practice of palliative care and the specialty of palliative medicine emerged from the modern hospice movement and its foundational philosophy of treating the whole person. This holistic approach recognises that the needs of dying patients are complex and multifaceted. Spirituality is one of the dimensions of palliative care practice and it was assumed that there was sufficient robust primary data to support a synthesis of evidence. However, a critical examination of the published data found that many studies make use of unexamined assumptions and ambiguous constructs. The resea

Abstract:

Recognizing and understanding the potentially powerful roles that religiousness and spirituality (RS) may serve in the prevention and amelioration of disease, as well as symptom management and health related quality of life, significantly enhances research and clinical efforts across many areas of behavioral medicine.

Abstract:

Among all the disciplines in which local medicine and spirituality are still intricately entangled, there exists one, namely Tibetan medicine. These medical knowledge and practices are also known as Sowa Rigpa gso ba rig pa, which can literally translate to the “science of healing” or the “Tibetan knowledge of the field of healing”. It is based on two essential elements: local medicine and Buddhism. These two coexist together and are both pivotal to treating the patient’s imbalance or illness. Inspired by Tibetan medical tradition, this thesis proposes research on some aspects concerning the c

Abstract:

Academic and medical institutions are responding to rising critiques of mainstream, scientific medicine (biomedicine). One response is the establishment of centers and programs devoted to whole person care. I assess the response of the McGill Programs in Whole Person Care (WPC) to these critiques, particularly its incorporation of spirituality into medicine. Through textual hermeneutics, participant observation, and semi-structured interviews with faculty members, I argue that WPC is constructing its own worldview and normative framework. It does this by selectively drawing from the religious

The beginning of life is an intense experience for both mother and baby and sets the foundation for future interactions. Researchers have theorized that maternal infant bonding begins prenatally and continues on through the postnatal period. Mṻller (1996) examined that process to determine if prenatal bonding was related to postnatal bonding and discovered that there was only a modest correlation between the two. This led to speculation as to what variables, besides prenatal bonding, could influence postnatal bonding. Klaus & Kennell (1976) noted the detrimental effects of a lack of bonding in

Spirituality is a phenomenon integral to health and wellbeing and a fundamental element of nursing care.

This study used a Glaserian grounded theory design to explore and explain pre registration nursing students’ personal understanding of their own spirituality and the relationship

Abstract:

Étudier les liens entre Huysmans (1848-1907) et la médecine, c’est se pencher sur un paradoxe : celui d’un écrivain d’abord naturaliste, fortement influencé par Zola et une médecine triomphante dont la méthode est érigée en modèle pour les romanciers, qui conserve après sa conversion au catholicisme, au début des années 1890, une écriture fortement imprégnée d’images relevant de la physiologie et d’un lexique médical. Ces derniers sont caractéristiques du style de l’écrivain, le « naturalisme spiritualiste », qui entend dire l’âme sans faire abstraction du corps. Si les éléments biographiques

Abstract:

This thesis focuses on the revisiting of several scientific theories on the part of Italian authors from 1865-1901, and illustrates how the process of assimilation was the effect of an accommodative process, which resulted in authors reinterpreting these theories in terms of a contrast between a visible and an invisible domain. The first chapter focuses on Arrigo Boito’s ‘Lezione d’anatomia’ and Camillo Boito’s ‘Un corpo’ in order to show how the visible/invisible contrast becomes a hermeneutical grid by which the female body is defined, this body being the field on which medical normativity a

Abstract:

This research was a preliminary pilot study meant to encourage further exploration on the intersection of art therapy, art making, spirituality, and dialogue. This study topic is an important area of investigation due to the long-standing challenges of interfaith dialogue, both historically and currently. An abundance of reviewed literature linking interfaith dialogue and dialogue through art making guided the research hypothesis, which states that the act of viewing and being viewed by the spiritual other through art making could deepen one’s own spiritual practice, increase empathy, foster d

Abstract:

This study examined the experiences of Hospice Bereavement Coordinators (HBCs) and Hospice Chaplains working with grief narratives from patient-family units exhibiting signs of anticipatory or complicated grief. While a significant amount of research has been conducted on Hospice employees, no qualitative studies have examined the interpretation of meaning from employees whose primary role focused on the psychosocial-spiritual aspects of clients exhibiting anticipatory or complicated grief. The researcher identified shared meaning of death, trauma, and loss from six participants in the context
