It appears to be a circular process, a very subtle but also very persistent and concrete dialogue between the inner and outer worlds, between body and psyche, and more generally, between psyche and matter.</p><p>In <em><strong>Where Soul Meets Matter:&nbsp;Clinical and Social Applications of Jungian Sandplay Therapy</strong></em>, Eva Pattis Zoja explores the psyche&rsquo;s astonishing capacity and determination to regulate itself by creating images and narratives as soon as a free and protected space for expression is provided.&nbsp; A variety of examples from analytic practice with adults and from psychosocial projects with children in vulnerable situations illustrate how sandplay can be used in different therapeutic settings.</p>
