This book acts as a guide to understanding authentic movement (AM) in various forms and in differing contexts, covering over three decades of practice across different theoretical and practical topics.

Featuring a selected collection of the authorâs major works, this book illustrates her theoretical, practical and research contributions to the field. It illustrates a developmental journey of the authorâs thinking and practice. A multitude of applications of authentic movement are explored in relation to topics such as clinical supervision, body memory, relational integrative psychotherapy, reducing anxiety and many more. The book describes authentic movement in each of these contexts through making connections to theory, research and practice in every chapter. While initial works identify the ways in which the author explores the discipline in relation to clinical supervision and the development of the bodymind spirit, more recent work involves psycho-neurology, body memory and applications to psychotherapy practice.

Both research-informed and practical, this book will be an informative read for any dance movement or body psychotherapists employing the discipline of AM into their practice together with others interested in embodied self-exploration, eco-psychotherapy and spiritual practices.
