Humanistic psychology

The psychotherapeutic approach is one which takes account of the whole person, considering the mind, body and spirit together. This leads to a deeper understanding of the person which helps practitioners take a holistic approach to the care of their patients.

Building on his expertise as a physician, James Dyson went on to study psychosynthesis psychology, nonviolent communication and organisational development. Here, he offers his analysis from these studies which, combined with his engagement with the work of Rudolf Steiner for over 50 years and with the therapeutic practice of eurythmy, provides readers with practical tools that they can apply in their work.

The selected lectures, essays and interviews cover topics including Moral Intuition and the Value of Education, The Challenges of Adolescence in Challenging Times and Parsifal Seen Psychologically. This book also includes an appendix featuring an introduction to eurythmy and exercises.

An insightful and empowering guide for anyone engaged in healing, health care, counselling, and psychotherapy who wants to take a more holistic approach to their caregiving.

Reviews for Soul-Size: The Eternal Psychosomatic Dilemma: An Exploration of Anthroposophic Physiology and Psychology

"""The breadth and depth of Dr. Dyson's knowledge and experience shine through in this collection, providing stimulus for therapists while also creating an initial bridge between the anthroposophic understanding of the human being and mainstream psychology."" --Simon Kuttner, PhD ""This publication is irreplaceable. Dr. Dyson's insights will shift the earnest learner's view of who-we-are and who-we-can-become."" --Roberta Nelson, PhD ""Dr. Dyson's immense and truly unique capacity to synthesize such apparently different fields and to make them relevant for a holistic understanding of the clinical presentation is the reflection of his firmly rooted command of both the theory and the practice."" --Dr. Pablo Jeczmien, MD, MRCPsych ""A highly recommended introduction to the work of a deep master of what it is to be truly human."" --Susan Overhauser, PhD"
