Spiritual search through tourism.Your articulation from the side of the offer

Desde mediados del siglo pasado hemos asistido a una ampliación de las posibilida-des turísticas de forma creciente; han aparecido nuevos tipos o han diversificado su oferta (histórico, cultural, ambiental, étnico, etc.), ampliando así su campo de acción. Queremos pues, reflexionar sobre un nuevo tipo de turismo que se refiere a la circulación mundial de personas que en sus desplazamientos recorren las redes espirituales en busca de nuevas experiencias de lo sagrado y de la vivencia espiritual. Nos hemos acercado a este proceso de reencantamiento del mundo a partir de los centros de terapias holísticos que son en gran medida los nodos que articulan esta nueva espiritualidad transversal que …

Neochamanismos en España. Retorno a las creencias ancestrales de la Madre Tierra

Entre las múltiples y variadas nuevas formas de espiritualidad contemporánea podemos destacar el chamanismo, más concretamente los neochamanismos como uno de los nuevos desarrollos espirituales a partir de la recuperación de nuestra relación ancestral con la Naturaleza y que busca en los orígenes, el acceso a una religión primigenia conservada por algunos pueblos indígenas. En este artículo tratamos de reflexionar acerca de la llegada y la extensión de dicho fenómeno a España en el marco del nuevo mercado espiritual, de esa constelación místico-esotérica que vive Occidente como una forma de explicación válida ante los déficits de sentido modernos y posmodernos que nos acechan y que nos hace…

Institutionalization an settlement of neoshamanisms in Spain : the case of the Valencian Country

In this article, we explore the penetration of different shamanic currents in the new millennium in Spain, with a particular focus on the Region of Valencia.

By using a qualitative methodology based on a combination of thorough interviews and field observations, we have approached diverse neoshamanic manifestations in the years 2015, 2016 and 2017. We have used some of the interviews and observations of our field work. Our unit of analysis has been the Region of Valencia although the theory could …

Yoga en España. Proceso de regulación profesional

New approaches to spirituality go hand in hand with emerging physical, psychological and spiritual movements that have had a clear impact on many areas, and in particular on health and well-being. It is increasingly common to find nurses teaching yoga or doctors prescribing mindfulness. Use of socalled Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) is becoming mainstream. Health centres, medical practices and even schools are offering a growing number of alternative therapies, resulting in the need for effective legal regulation of these activities, both in terms of professional recognition and training. In Spain, recent legislation represents a significant breakthrough in the regulation of y…

El rol del asociacionismo de inmigrantes africanos en la construcción de cohesión social y la convivencia en Cataluña, Navarra y la Comunidad Valenciana. Miradas Cruzadas

This article aims to analyse some possible contributions from organisations funded by immigrants from the African continent to the socio-cultural integration in three Regions in Spain. In order to do so, first there is a definition of integrations as a process, paying special attention to the role that national and international literature have given to the associations of immigrants. Afterwards, there is a focus on associations from people with an African origin, paying attention to the double view point, from one side the one from representatives from African associations and on the other, from administration technicians and representatives of social entities that collaborate with them. T…
