- W345740570 abstract "ABSTRACT: This theoretical dissertation considered biological and psychological importance of dance between mother and infant from conception through bonding period. It proposed a unifying dance metaphor of pre- and perinatal motherinfant alchemical dance to provide a psychological term describing their first organizing co-creative dynamics. The process of alchemical dance is postulated to be Nature's blueprint for initial creational unfolding of development. The function of this dance patterning was to create new life, organize infant embodiment, enhance mother-infant unity, and infuse a sense of belonging in relationship. There are different characteristics between prenatal and perinatal dance. The theoretical construct was based on multidisciplinary scientific theories, joined with ancient philosophies, gathered from quantum physics, psychoanalytic theory, developmental psychological theory, prenatal and perinatal psychology and infant programming, biology and affective neuroscience, and from knowledge of divine feminine, ancient dance, and alchemy. The use of metaphor was primary methodology. The dissertation advanced a theoretical framework for prenatal and perinatal psychology. Implications placed new value on creating educational programs for conscious parenting during pre and perinatal period, based on principles of alchemical dance. KEY WORDS: Prenatal and perinatal psychology, theory, dance, neuroscience, pregnancy, parenting, mother infant bonding INTRODUCTION Theoretical inquiry was design for this dissertation that postulated new conceptual foundations for field of prenatal and perinatal psychology. Theory brings into coherent concept and principles used in exploration and conceptual organization of reality (Olds, 1992, p. 42). According to Stinchcome (1968), primary reason for constructing theory about social and psychological phenomena is to explore patterns of observation in world. My contribution to history of ideas, as a theorist in prenatal and perinatal psychology, was to suggest that dance-movement patterning is Nature's intelligent blueprint for mother infant co-creative symbiosis from conception through bonding period. It proposed important role of dance and alchemy as catalytic processes that underlie initial patterning and development. This scientific topic is relevant and timely for a theoretical dissertation. Schore (1994), an affective neurobiologist, stated that objective of science is now to identify patterning of early development as the beginning of living systems set stage for every aspect of an organism's internal and external functioning (p. 4). Definitions of and Alchemy This theoretical dissertation provided a scholarly and scientific argument, based on multidimensional scientific theories and ancient philosophies, that early pre- and perinatal mothering function is a pre- and perinatal mother-infant alchemical dance and is a co-creative dyadic process. Dance was broadly defined by Hanna (1987) as rhythmical movement as organized and human movement as a non-verbal form of expression (p. 14). Alchemy , as an ancient science, was broadly defined as study of transformational processes in perfection and evolution of matter (Scully, 2003, p. 8). Kenyon and Sion (2002) defined alchemy as the art and science of changing one form into another, and inner alchemy transforms energy of consciousness and life force of embodiment into expanded awareness (p. 312). The Theorists This dissertation was based upon works of thirty-five prominent theorists. Bohm (1950, 1980), Capra (1975,1996, 2001, 2002), Del Re (2000), Hunt (1968, 1989), Lewis & Granic (2000), Kenny (1988), Kauffman (1993), McCraty (2000, 2003), McTaggart (2000), Wolf, (2000, 2001), and Zukav (1979) are experts on topics of physics and related studies of field and chaos theory as well as heart math. …" @default.
