The book examines the field of early emotions and the fact that the
human body has frequently been excluded from psychological and
relational processes. Central to the book is an examination of the
ways in which the unconscious life of the mind expresses itself
through a woman's body, and conversely, the manner in which the
body's experiences impinge upon the mind.Drawing on the case of a
difficult mother-infant relationship, infant observations,
psychoanalytic literature and work in neighboring disciplines,
Sansone considers how early experiences of touch and movement
become stored within the body and how such experiences may be acted
out in adult life and affect the mother-infant early relationship.
Pregnancy and childbirth are a crucial time for parents, since they
reactivate unresolved issues, which left untreated, can develop
more complex chronic conditions or even pathology.In contrast to
the dualism of Western science and medicine, the author assumes the
embodiment of the human mind, the inseparability of psyche and
soma. She also explores the embodiment of emotional health as well
as of emotional illness and their foundation in earliest
experiences.
