Dance artist and body therapist Miranda Tufnell takes us on a captivating and enlightening journey into the world of dance and health. For a remarkable 14 years, she dedicated herself to working at a General Practitioner (GP) surgery in Cumbria, where the book begins with a vivid account of an arts project she and her colleagues conducted for individuals with long-term health conditions. This captivating book delves into the realms of the body and movement, exploring the interplay between imagination and health. It gathers a rich tapestry of stories, perspectives, and activities from artists, patients, and healthcare practitioners. The arts have long held a significant place in medicine, and this book offers compelling evidence of the profound impact of arts practice in enhancing our resources and fostering well-being. While the work draws its inspiration from the body and movement, it is not limited to those with a dance background. Engaging in creative listening to the body not only strengthens our body intelligence but also empowers us to take effective care of ourselves. Practitioners from diverse backgrounds will find valuable insights and inspiration within these pages. Rather than imparting explicit teachings, this book serves as a window into practice, offering glimpses into the experiences of those who work in this field. It conveys a sense of the joys, challenges, and profound rewards that come with pursuing a career in dance and health.
