Cultural Diversity

Our book Holistic Healing: Theories, Practices and Social Change provides an in-depth overview of this vital field of study. It links together the common concepts of wholistic healing, while recognizing the vast differences in theories and practices especially based upon cultural diversity. For example, the concepts of Ying-Yang are very different than Ayurveda approaches. The following is one condensed example of Indigenous/Anishaabek Wholistic Healing which is very different than Western concepts and varies from Nation to Nation (see second slide of image for healing practices). See our book for in-depth discussions of this approach (Chapters 2, 11.2, 14.2 and 14.4 and other approaches.
