To celebrate the centenary of innovative psychotherapist Gerda Boyesen, the founder of Biodynamic psychotherapy, I talk to Anat Ben-Israel M.A. Anat explains the central theory behind Biodynamic methods, how these ideas have been integrated into the mainstream of body-mind theory, why Gerda's work was overlooked in favour of her male colleagues, and how relevant this work is to our everyday lives.Anat is a Biodynamic Psychotherapist, a senior biodynamic trainer who has training schools in Israel and the USA, she’s a Training Board member at the London School of Biodynamic Psychotherapy, as well as working with clients privately in her clinic and online. Like me, she was lucky enough to have been taught by Gerda Boyesen, the founder of Biodynamic Psychotherapy an innovator who created a uniquely feminine, cyclical way of working. You can find Anat at biodynamictherapy.net  And if you’re interested in finding out more about Gerda’s methods check out  https://centreforbodypsychotherapy.com/ which is the London School of Biodynamic Psychotherapy’s site.More information about Katehttps://www.katecodrington.co.uk/Instagram @kate_codringtonSecond Spring: the self-care guide to menopause is available from your favourite bookshopYou will find the podcast on Spotify, iTunes and all major platforms, just search for 'Life - An Inside Job' and please share it with your friends!
