Holism, in the context of this site, attempts to unify the concepts of body, mind, and spirit,
with the seemingly opposing issues of Fact versus Faith, Science versus Theology.
For holistic lifestyle and health choices a holistic approach addresses the entire body/mind as a unified process. The holistic approach to healing explores successful mainstream lifestyle and health practices of the patient, in addition to the specific health issues involved, and then utilizes the most pertinent and useful components of both Western and Eastern health and wellness practices to create a comprehensive health regimen. Through study, exploration and practice it is possible to improve one's overall health using methodologies that combine the most relevant components of a variety of health practices and procedures.
The term holistic as defined by the Merriam-Webster dictionary implies a more comprehensive approach to health. This site will offer information on health and lifestyle choices that are mainstream in both Western and Eastern cultures. Combining these methodologies offer a holistic option for lifestyle choices and health regimens that treat the body and the mind in a unified approach to wellness.
