The Dynamic Map of Being: Sexuality, Soul Spirit by David England

A hand lowers a crystal ball into a clear body of water. The water, trees and sunset in the background are reflected in the crystal ball.

Experienced psychosynthesis psychotherapist David England shares his latest paper, The Dynamic Map of Being, with the Trust.

The Dynamic Map of Being is in itself a new way of representing humans, based on Native American Medicine Wheels. David draws on research by Harley SwiftDeer Reagan, developing and blending theories for a psychosynthetic approach that can be used by psychotherapists.
