Catharsis

Catharsis is the process of releasing repressed emotions, its a purification process of the body and mind, this will be achieved through movement therapy.

The term Catharsis is defined as the process of releasing, and thereby providing relief from, strong or repressed emotions. Before words trained our tongues to move, we said everything we needed to through our bodies. Dance and movement is a form of communication that sometimes helps an individual to convey in a single moment the complexity and depth of feelings that cannot be put into words. Dance movement therapy works on the principle of mind body connection where changes in one leads to subsequent changes in the other. Materials of the unconscious mind, including our thoughts, emotions anxieties get reflected on our body and it is the role of the movement therapist to work with the natural movement of the client to deal with the unconscious conflicts. Being an expressive therapy it helps to release the emotional tensions and energies which then results in a clear connection with oneself and others. The therapy aims at providing a holistic development and well-being to the individual by furthering physical, cognitive, emotional and social integration. Thus the person emerges more balanced with greater self esteem, greater self awareness and better problem solving skills. Catharsis offers both individual and group sessions. It also provides customized workshops for educational institutes, corporate organizations, ngos and various hospital and treatment centres.

" Dance Movement Therapy relates not only to the present body, the body that can be observed, but to the symbolic and metaphoric body as well. A certain individual’s arm is not only an upper extremity moving in a restricted manner in space and remaining close to the torso. It is probable that this arm is fantasized as capable to hit, or that upon extending would make itself present, thus earning disapproval and rejection." - Sharon Chaiklin and Hilda Wengrower

Dance Movement Therapy workshop at J. D. Birla Institute, Department of Management

What are the potential sources of stress experienced by college students and how can one combat these stressors and prevent burn out? Dance movement therapy was used as a medium to explore the manifestation of stress on one's bodies and to experience the power of social support through partner and group movement themes.
