Health can be viewed and approached differently across various cultures. For example, traditional Chinese medicine focuses on balancing the body's energy (Qi) through practices like acupuncture, herbal medicine, and dietary therapy. In India, Ayurveda emphasizes the balance of three bodily humors (Doshas) using herbs, yoga, and meditation. Native American cultures often incorporate spiritual and community elements into healing practices, such as ceremonies and herbal remedies. These diverse perspectives enrich our understanding of health and wellness, highlighting the importance of cultural sensitivity in healthcare.
