Objective: To study the perceptions and emotions regarding the territory of three
groups of rural women of Bosque Modelo Risaralda. Methodology: Body mapping technique was used for gathering qualitative information for a sentiment analysis carried out by R software with the lexicon of the National Research Institute Council of Canada (NRC). Results: Women enjoy their homes. They symbolically placed their homes in their heart. The emotions of sadness and fear are mainly placed in the head and feet. Those parts of the body are associated with specific parts of the house. Environmental conflicts were represented in the hands and stomach. Those body parts generate negative emotions such as sadness and disgust, but, at the same time, awaken positive emotions of trust shown in desires for change and transformation. The women
place struggles and strength in the mind and legs. They associated those body parts with confidence, but also with fear and anger. Conclusions: Women’s vulnerability in intimate and public places is evident. Additionally, the socio-environmental conflicts of their territories becomes coded in their bodies.
