Sharpening the instrument

This article, drawing on self-reflective experiential research within reciprocally inquiring relationships as expounded by Heron, explores learning derived from an innovative psycho-therapeutic approach. Pesso-Boyden System Psychomotor (PBSP) links mind/body in its philosophy and practice. Two domains of inquiry are reported. In the first, I as chief storyteller map three psychotherapists' reflective learning of PBSP. In the second, I explore how my practice of teaching and supervising and dealing with colleagues at a university is informed by my own PBSP development. Quality criteria of experiential psychological growth and of experiential psychological research are used, respectively, to consider both the content of the learning narrated and the process of the way it has been realized and communicated. The article attempts to 'show data' as well as interrelate their meanings, more than simply 'tell about' data. In this sense, the writing approach is analogically congruent with the themes presented
