ABSTRACT

The purpose of this paper was to research the effect of walking in travel as a healing power. People experience various symptoms of psychosis, neurosis, and perversion through the continuous lack of desire. Contemporary travel becomes more important in value for its creative and therapeutic aspects. This paper deals with Freudian theories that are composed of individual unconscious desire and 'Oedipus Complex', and Lacan's theories that are composed of 'the Imaginary-the Symbolic-the Real' and 'Mirror Stage' for examining the therapeutic effect of walking in travel. The neuroses can be divided into ‘the Subject’ and ‘the Other’, by supposing nature as a hierachy, 'the Name of Father', and erupt their inner repression through the effect of walking in travel. It means that travelers may receive the power of healing through walking during travel. This study examined (1) hysteria and (2) obsessive compulsive disorder at the Symbolic stage. The perversions who remove the Other's desire and recognize themselves as the perfect subject can face up to the reality while recognizing nature as hierarchy without denying it. From this point of view, the travel industry can play an important role in many fields to improve the quality of life by studying travel behaviors for therapeutic functions based on psychoanalysis.
