Abstract | This article presents research conducted with six French physicians who have been trained in complementary and alternative medicines. The perceived effects of this body-mind training, (i.e. ‘Awakening the Sensible Being’), are addressed in the thesis being posited. These ‘Awakening the Sensible Being’ practices help develop a quality of presence to self and to others, which are desirable qualities for health care professionals. An investigation was conducted using two types of interviews: comprehensive and explicitation. The two paths of analysis are introduced, as well as the results achieved, which are linked to the personal sphere of the participants. The participants reported having experienced some identity transformations which led them to place more emphasis on their inner rather than their external reference points. They also reported feeling more centred and healthier. |
