Lecture given by Rainer Mahr at International Conference for Bioenergetic Analysis" Arles, France, May 1998.

I show that there are a lot of sources in Bioenergetic Analysis which can be developed if your describe bioenergetic processes from the view point of biology, physiology, neurobiology, psychiommunology, biophoton research. Bioenergetic Analysis has to distinguish very strictly between the psychic and the bodily level and to define the meaning of energy. Doing that you can get a new theory of psychotherapeutic science, a better understanding of the unity of body and soul, more knowledge of what is going on in psychotherapy and you can develop new techniques of body work.
