Arts informed methods in staff training/dementia care
"In exploring how individual staff members make home in the institution, I deconstruct

Embodied in the MoverWitness Exchange
Eila Goldhahn Ph.D. (Dartington College of Arts and University of Plymouth, Devon, UK)
Embodied approaches, raising awareness, themes of death and loss, authentic movement

the weight of the wood, of straightening and balancing them...The image of doorways

Both Newfoundland and my mother's body help me, both nourished me (and continue to
nourish me) and yet both were and still are mysteries to me. But both also invite me to
know them, to try to understand what they can tell me about myself and more
importantly about how to relate that self to others." (read full article)
