Body, metamorphoses and care: a possible formation with health professionals

Abstract

This article presents an intervention proposal titled “metamorphosis clinic”, fulfilled in the realm of health education. The field for the study was a health research group, linked to a Post-Graduate Program in Collective Health, of a public university. Participants were professionals, students and researchers from various health areas. Experimentations were used with movements of body awareness, field diary and reports written by the participants after the experience. The cultivation of the material was based on a narrative policy that articulated the field diary of the movements experienced with the speeches and reports of the participants. The intervention provided a space for reflection that led the participants to report greater capacity for attention to their daily and work relationships, increase of sensitivities and transformation of standardized behaviors into new ways of living.
