Many survivors feel fragmented and in pieces following their injury. They often have a need to work on their body and mind at the same time, to optimise functional movement while also managing difficult feelings. I am a tai chi and kung fu instructor as well as a clinical neuropsychologist, and I research the role of martial arts in neuro-rehabilitation at Oxford Brookes University, focusing on the experience of being in a state of Flow within martial arts movements (which can be done standing, in a wheelchair, and also if parts of your body do not work so well following your injury).
I can offer mind-body approaches to managing life after brain injury based on these martial arts, which can be appealing for those who would not want to spend an hour just talking about feelings, or who have a background in martial arts, yoga, dance or other related practice. To find out more about this way of working, please visit my other website, NeuroFlow.
