- W1676509807 abstract "Folktales, narratives, metaphors or stories are psychotherapeutic in nature especiallywhen consciously applied in a therapeutic setting. They assist clients. in achieving· wholeness in the area of therapy focus. They also educate, entertain and perform otherfunctions depending on the' context they are used. While reading, listening to, or evenwriting their own stories, people tend to understand, feel, relate with and even see apart of themselves in stories. In Africa, when people are bereaved, they are told storiesto assist them grieve positively (Nwoye, 2005). This paper elucidates thepsychotherapeutic components of folktales or metaphors with focus on (Theland of Bingo), an indigenous (Igbo) folktale translated to English by Pritchett (2004).The story shows cycles of harmony-disharmony within the endocosrnos (relationshipwithin oneself), mesocosmos (relationship between oneself and others) and exocosmos· (relationship between oneself and higher order beings (God or gods) or other reveredthings) that the Chief of Bingo went through before he was able to marry a wife andselect a heir to his throne. The harmony-disharmony cycle experienced by the Chiefwere teased out and were juxtaposed with the steps he took to facilitate theachievement of harmony his life. The importance of metaphors in psychotherapy andtherapeutic characteristics of metaphors in Alabingo were highlighted and implications· for psychotherapy practice in Africa were also elucidated." @default.
