Description
The number of individuals who resort to alternative medicine continues to rise. From yoga, meditation and energy therapies to healing based on various religio-spiritual traditions, there is a variety of therapeutic practices one can choose from. With Eugenia Roussou, a Portuguese anthropologist, we will discuss how a therapeutic and spiritual pluralism is produced through the implementation of transnational influences on spirituality and healing. We'll discuss the diverse ways in which the practice of spirituality through healing leads to a better understanding of how current processes of globalisation, transnationalism and multiculturalism affect, develop and negotiate one’s individual, social, spiritual and medical identity. Quite sure you don't want to miss that one :) As usual, you can bring some things for a brunch, I will also prepare some tea and crepes - you know the deal :)
