peer agreement (net): +4There has therefore been a move away from the person as a whole to a person as the Σ of his... Explanation: It is about a holistic approach to health, where the individual, the person as a whole is to be taken into consideration, certainly not a part of his body, even less as a pathology with a surname! The idea is to bear in mind all aspects of the person, health, social, psychological... and that this approach is positive in accompanying the person to an improved state of well-beaing and health. Suggestion : "There has therefore been a move away from the person as a whole to a person as a sum of his physical parts." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2011-12-29 17:17:29 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://ahha.org/articles.asp?Id=86 Are you confused about the meaning of holistic? Have you ever been discussing holistic health and discovered that the other person was defining holistic in a totally different way than you? This is not surprising, since there are no accepted standard definitions for holistic, holistic health, or holistic medicine. Most usage falls within two common definitions: Holistic as a whole made up of interdependent parts. You are most likely to hear these parts referred to as 1) the mind/ body connection, 2) mind/ body/ spirit, or 3) physical/ mental/ emotional/ spiritual aspects. When this meaning is applied to illness, it is called holistic medicine and includes a number of factors, such as 1) dealing with the root cause of an illness, 2) increasing patient involvement, and 3) considering both conventional (allopathic) and complementary (alternative) therapies. Holistic as a synonym for alternative therapies. By this definition, "going holistic" means turning away from any conventional medical options and using alternative treatment exclusively. This meaning mainly relates to illness situations, and sometimes is used for controversial therapies. The expanded perspective of holistic as considering the whole person and the whole situation allows us to apply holistic as an adjective to anything. For example, we can develop a new project at work or re-organize our life holistically. When illness is involved, the broad definition of holistic allows us to integrate both conventional and complementary therapies. Consider adopting this holistic approach to your life. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2011-12-29 17:27:41 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- "towards the person as the Σ of his physical parts". -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2011-12-29 17:29:50 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Or even, "This has meant a move away from.../This has led to a move away from...". |
