Description
Summary:This exploratory paper aims to discuss the body in the Brazilian New Age. In the first part, we deal with the New Age in Brazil and how its materiality contributes to this ethos. Ultimately, we present the body in the Brazilian New Age, briefly dealing with health and sexuality. The last part was elaborated in dialogs with more general definitions of the theme by international authors (Heelas, Hanegraaff), interspersed with the ideas of authors who have researched the theme specifically in Brazil.
