Hello all,
I am writing a paper for a clinical social work class and was hoping some of you could provide imput.
I am looking for personal views of how Japanese martial arts have helped you in any of the following ways:
1. Ability to socialize
2. self-esteem
3. confidence
4. awareness of personal feelings or feelings of others
5. body awareness
6. self-control
If anyone chooses to help me with this I will ask for your real name in a PM, or you could give me a false name if you are more comfortable. I will show you where I plan to use your comments in context of my paper before finalizing it, giving you the right to decide at that time whether you would rather not have me use it.
The purpose of this paper is to (1)draw simularities between Japanese martial arts practice and mindfulness based social work theory. (2) Analyze martial arts training as a form of mindful based cognitive and behavior therapy. (3) Determine the effect, if any, JMA training has on a clinician's approach to therapy.
I plan to post my final paper on MT once I have completed it.
If anyone has any questions please ask. Your help will be much appreciated.
