Possibilities of poetotherapy use as a therapeutic tool at the health care
PLAŇANSKÁ, Kristýna
In this bachelor thesis I deal with possibilities of using poetry therapy as a therapeutic tool in health care. Poetry therapy is a method that uses elements of poetry. The work includes the theoretical and practical part. In the theoretical part I deal with psychosomatics, communication, psychotherapy, literary kinds and genres, poetry therapy and other therapeutic methods. In the practical part I applied the qualitative research method, which was attended by 3 women and 3 men in the age range from 21 to 75 years. In my work I applied 4 methods - poet therapy, controlled interview, observation and music therapy. The aim of this work is to find out about internal problems, motivate them to read poems, awaken new interests, stimulate relaxation, harmony and social conscience by using 10 therapeutical hours during 10 weeks. New interests appeared in 72% of respondents. Motivating respondents to read poems was successful at 48%. A sense of harmonization was achieved in 72% of respondents. In 80% of the respondents we were able to create social conscience. In 68% of respondents, we managed to reduce internal problems where 78% of the participants had an inner relaxation. The results show that regular poetry therapy helps responders eliminate internal problems, bring a state of relaxation and have more empathy. It had less influence on raising new interests and to motivate respondents reading poems themselves. This work can serve not only students but also the general public as a source of information.
