Towards a New Paradigm
摘要
This chapter revisits the entire discussions made in this book and proposes a new paradigm. By highlighting that the discussions/discourses of health and wellbeing predominately favour Western Biomedicine, this chapter proposes a new framework which is inclusive to consider both Western biomedicine and traditional medical systems that are embedded in ancient wisdom; thereby it explains a process to transform the discourse of health and wellbeing towards being integrated into nature and natural processes. This chapter provides evidence for the need to facilitate the human return to nature. This requires rethinking current tools, such as education and healthcare, to develop new tools for conviviality. This chapter argues that this proposed framework possesses potential to reintroduce nature into health and wellbeing and can be adapted in other contexts.
