The 21st century is the time at of the spiritual as well as that of the body. As Carl Gustav Jung beautifully put it, the body is the soul perceived by the five senses. The body can be defined thanks to its matter, its physical and visible structure, but also thanks to its invisible part or spirit, mind. The western world is slowly becoming more aware of the perception of the body while opening up to the concepts of energy and martial arts coming from Far East. The body/mind duality is not so present anymore. Experimenting with the body allows one to find deeper perspectives in the understanding of oneself. Yoga, qigong or Shiatsu, among other disciplines, will allow the western world to discover the wonderful powers of the human body and its capacity to self-heal.
