The invisible behind the visible - Introduction to biocentric health theory
Conference
Saturday 27 May 2023
8:30 - 9:20
This lecture will explain a way of looking at the biocentric paradigm in a scientific and holistic way. Marcus Stueck in recent years has developed, scientifically studied and published a Biocentric Theory of Health, which can serve as a basis for incorporating Biodanza into other practicable Biocentric methods or fields of action and theories. This includes, for example, Naess' theory of Deep Ecology or other biological and psychological models such as the polyvagal theory, the fractal theory or the foundations of quantum physics in the social sciences and so on. Also, the connection between spirituality and the material world, which is necessary for biocentrism. That is, the invisible world behind the visible. The invisible is not a matter of faith, but of scientific logic. The main features of this theory were developed and published in 2021 as part of an international study on COVID19 and the psyche in which 8 Biodanza universities and teachers around the world took part. It also serves as the basis for an argument in the journal Frontiers in Psychology on biocentric development and COVID19 toward human growth and sustainability.
