It argues that physical illness should not be interpreted as a failure to live up to our Bioenergetic Analysis values and principles. Instead, physical illness can be viewed as an integral part of a person’s personal growth journey; as a manifestation of guidance from our organism; and as an attempt from our body to steer us towards a path that may lead to deeper emotional and spiritual healing.}, number={1}, journal={Bioenergetic Analysis}, author={Fréchette, Louise}, year={2022}, month={Mar.}, pages={53–77} }
