增强身体意识被描述为治疗方法的关键要素或作用机制，这些方法通常被归类为身心方法，例如瑜伽、太极、身体导向的心理治疗、身体意识疗法、基于正念的疗法/冥想、Feldenkrais、亚历山大法、呼吸疗法以及其他据报道对各种健康状况有益的方法。为了更好地理解身心疗法中身体意识的概念，邀请了这些方法的领先从业者和教学人员以及他们的患者参加焦点小组。对这些焦点小组与身体意识实践的代表性实践者及其患者的观点进行定性分析，阐明了他们对身体意识理解的共同点。对他们来说，身体意识是在行动以及与环境和世界的互动中实现的体现自我意识不可分割的一个方面。它是对体现的认识，作为我们有机体的自然倾向，以实现自发的自组织和整体性。患者在这些治疗中经历的过程被视为身体与自我之间更大统一的进展，这与一些哲学家所描述的身体与自我辩证法的体现概念非常相似，即在不同的发展水平上经历的经历。
Enhancing body awareness has been described as a key element or a mechanism of action for therapeutic approaches often categorized as mind-body approaches, such as yoga, TaiChi, Body-Oriented Psychotherapy, Body Awareness Therapy, mindfulness based therapies/meditation, Feldenkrais, Alexander Method, Breath Therapy and others with reported benefits for a variety of health conditions. To better understand the conceptualization of body awareness in mind-body therapies, leading practitioners and teaching faculty of these approaches were invited as well as their patients to participate in focus groups. The qualitative analysis of these focus groups with representative practitioners of body awareness practices, and the perspectives of their patients, elucidated the common ground of their understanding of body awareness. For them body awareness is an inseparable aspect of embodied self awareness realized in action and interaction with the environment and world. It is the awareness of embodiment as an innate tendency of our organism for emergent self-organization and wholeness. The process that patients undergo in these therapies was seen as a progression towards greater unity between body and self, very similar to the conceptualization of embodiment as dialectic of body and self described by some philosophers as being experienced in distinct developmental levels.
