Flexibility in the psychotherapeutic frame of treatment arises from many sources, from the general to the personal, and can take several forms. This article looks at walking while conducting psychotherapy with patients and explores the ways in which flexibility in treatment can enhance the alliance, how walking side by side brings the body into focus with its implications for transference and countertransference, and how associations to landscape evoke past memories and access emotions. Issues relating to self-disclosure and boundaries, as well as patient responses to the psychotherapist's personally driven request to consider walking during psychotherapy are addressed. Since writing this article, the coronavirus pandemic has swept across the world and required psychotherapists everywhere to bend the frame of treatment and meet with patients virtually—by phone or video conference—to maintain social distancing and prevent the spread of infection. The hardships posed by this shift in treatment frame combine with benefits not dissimilar to those found with psychotherapy while walking.

Abstract Background: Novel coronavirus was named as SARS-CoV-2 is a transmissible viral disease that has rapidly stroke around the world and is currently a major thread for developing and under poverty level countries by the World Bank and WHO's prediction. Without inventing vaccination or the proper treatment, how we control a faster infectious disease like SARS-CoV-2 or COVID-19 is one of the most admitted questions with which our developed civilization faces right now.At the same time, some policies termed as \isolation", \quarantine",\lock-down" and \social distancing" would give a stunning direction to control the epidemic outbreak.Methods: In this paper, we developed a novel theoretical model named \Social Distancing SEIQR model" to control the spread of infection by combining both quarantine and social distancing explicitly based on the real cases that observed where medical equipment and others resources are limited.Results: Our modelling basic reproduction number R0 is almost accurate predictor threshold to assess the transmissibility of the COVID-19 in Bangladesh.A linear regression polynomial fit result showed that our model fitted well to the reported COVID-19 cases data for Bangladesh.Conclusion: Our model will help to nd some strong strategies for controlling faster from spreading the virus and protect the nation when a country has limited medical resources.

Asking Questions

The COVID-19 pandemic swept the world at the beginning of 2020. Countries launched into a state of emergency, involving lockdown and quarantine. When social distancing became the “new normal,” people were forced to stay in, working and communicating remotely at home. For many, an oppressive feeling of “being trapped” creates inertia, a strange lack of adequate energy to even move. Bodies no longer function in a social context. Participating in the Massive and Microscopic sense-making project (Markham & Harris) prompted me to engage in autoethnographic self-exploration of my own embodiment in relation to the pandemic, asking questions such as: How do we go about becoming reconnected again? How can we use movement and the body as a curriculum to learn and unlearn ourselves?

Corona virus or what can be called Covid-19 has become a pandemic throughout the world, many activities such as teaching and learning, work, and even sports were suspended because of the Covid-19. Covid-19 can spread very quickly because this virus makes use of various types of crowds and can cause death. With the termination of various kinds of activities that involve physical contact and human encounters can reduce the spread of the Covid-19 virus significantly. The virus that can develop for 14 days on its host body is very dangerous so that Social Distancing and even Physical Distancing activities are carried out to reduce the spread of Covid-19. With the implementation of Physical Distancing for 14 days, humans who are infected without symptoms can get out of the house but with a health protocol by wearing a mask, not close to each other, and always washing hands. By maintaining health as well as sports, the development of this virus in the body can slow down. Usually sports are carried out in city parks, health protocols and facilities that can help reduce the spread of the Covid-19 virus can be done in city parks. Virus Corona atau yang bisa disebut dengan Covid-19 sudah menjadi pandemi di seluruh dunia, banyak kegiatan seperti belajar mengajar, bekerja, bahkan olahraga diberhentikan sementara karena adanya Covid-19 ini. Covid-19 yang dapat menyebar dengan sangat cepat karena virus ini memanfaatkan berbagai jenis keramaian dan dapat menyebabkan kematian.

The lymphatic system is very important in the immunological activities of the body. Clinicians confirm the diagnosis of infectious diseases by palpating the involved cutaneous lymph node for changes in size, heat, and consistency. Clinical pathologists diagnose systemic diseases through biopsies of superficial lymph nodes. In many parts of the world the goat is considered as an important source of milk and meat products.The lymphatic system has been studied extensively. These studies lack precise information on the natural morphology of the lymph nodes and their vascular and cellular constituent. This is due to using improper technique for such studies. A few studies used the SEM, conducted by cutting the lymph node with a blade. The morphological data collected by this method are artificial and do not reflect the normal three dimensional surface of the examined area of the lymph node. SEM has been used to study the lymph vessels and lymph nodes of different animals. No information on the cutaneous lymph nodes of the goat has ever been collected using the scanning electron microscope.

The essay discusses selected poems from Thomas Hardy's vast body of poetry, focusing on representations of the self and the world. Employing Maurice Merleau-Ponty's concepts such as the body-subject, wild being, flesh, and reversibility, the essay offers an analysis of Hardy's poems in the light of phenomenological philosophy. It argues that far from demonstrating ‘cosmic indifference’, Hardy's poetry offers a sympathetic vision of interrelations governing the universe. The attunement with voices of the Earth foregrounded in the poems enables the self's entanglement in the flesh of the world, a chiasmatic intertwining of beings inserted between the leaves of the world. The relation of the self with the world is established through the act of perception, mainly visual and aural, when the body becomes intertwined with the world, thus resulting in a powerful welding. Such moments of vision are brief and elusive, which enhances a sense of transitoriness, and, yet, they are also timeless as the self becomes immersed in the experience. As time is a recurrent theme in Hardy's poetry, this essay discusses it in the context of dwelling, the provisionality of which is demonstrated in the prevalent sense of temporality, marked by seasons and birdsong, which underline the rhythms of the world.

Empty Time

In classical philosophy of time, present time mainly has been considered in its fleetingness: it is transition, in the Platonic meaning of the sudden or in the Aristotelian sense of discreet moment and isolated intensity that escapes possible perception. Through the idea of subjective constitution of time, Husserl’s phenomenology tries to spread the moment. He transcends the idea of linear and empty time in modern philosophy. Phenomenological description of time experience analyses the filled character of the moment that can be detained in the performance of consciousness. As a consequence of the temporality of consciousness, he nevertheless remains in the temporal conception of presence. The phenomenology of Merleau-Ponty, however, is able to grasp the spacial meaning of presence. In his perspective of a phenomenology of perception, presence can be understood as a space surrounding the body, as a field of present things given in perception. Merleau-Ponty recovers the ancient sense of ‘praesentia’ as a fundamental concept of being in the world.
