subject: The Relationship Between Health Psychology and Pure Classical Pilates [print this page] Another purpose of both traditional instructors and health psychologists is to help our students develop more inner freedom to open unconscious "doors" and discover varied aspects of themselves, gaining self-knowledge. In the case of psychotherapy, this process takes place through verbalization of feelings and examination of emotional or behavioral response patterns. In the case of traditional Pilates, this process happens through physicalizing feeling into form. As a result, both disciplines assist students to gain more patience, tolerance and an appreciation for their life's journey. It is less important for us to find out exactly what is behind those doors than for students to simply develop their own natural propensity toward self-reflection, growth and fulfillment.
