"“Positive health is a new paradigm, a shift in healthcare from just the diagnosis of disease and treatment of illness to include sustainable selfcare strategies through the science of flourishing. The authors provide a much needed holistic focus on what’s strong as opposed to what’s wrong, on how health and wellbeing can be developed and supported. Leveraging the emerging evidence from lifestyle medicine and positive psychology this book provides the why as well as the how in terms of positive change. If you are involved in healthcare, education, training or simply are curious to learn how to add more life to your years, then this book is for YOU!” --Dr. Mark Rowe, Author of The Vitality Mark. ""Positive Health: The Basics provides excellent insights to the way we all should approach health and wellbeing. Promoting the positive can negate the negative and so positive health is for everyone, regardless of how high or low we are on the wellbeing continuum."" --Dr Darren Morton, Director of the Lifestyle Medicine and Health Research Centre, Avondale University, creator of The Lift Project. “The authors are modest when they describe this work as “The Basics”. It is much more than that. Health professionals and others who want to understand more about thriving in life will find a foundation for understanding and action in Positive Health. The disciplines of lifestyle medicine, salutogenesis and positive psychology are deftly woven into the philosophical framework of not simply “health”, but what it means to live life well.” --Simon Matthews, FACLM, MHlthSc, DipIBLM, NBC-HWC “All of us can benefit from the “Positive Health: The Basics” in order to leverage our full potential – not only to prevent and treat mental and physical conditions, but also become our best selves, regardless of the adversities we may face. individually and supporting an environment for a health-sustaining and positive future globally.
