| Summary: | The theory of embodied cognition explains the mechanisms of post-traumatic stress disorder from the integrated perspective of body-mind-environment, indicating that traumatic events act on individuals' bodies and minds through "top-down" and "bottom-up" dual pathways, inducing various physical and mental symptoms. This theory provides a systematic explanatory framework for post-traumatic stress disorder, emphasizing the mediating mechanisms of embodied memory and interoception in symptom maintenance and development. Psychotherapy guided by embodied cognition theory highlights the advantages of physical intervention and environmental interaction. Future research should combine existing therapies to strengthen physical intervention, focus on the impact of dynamic body-mind-environment interaction on treatment, and optimize intervention strategies. |
