Integrative health is at the heart of everyday wellbeing. Today, having access to reliable, up-to-date information allows everyone to maintain their balance and make the best choices for their health. At Soin et Nature, our mission is to promote integrative health, support everyone in their quest for wellbeing and provide the tools they need to better understand their body, mind and the mechanisms that connect them.
Integrative health is not limited to the absence of disease, as it encompasses a state of physical, mental and social well-being, as defined by the WHO. This implies a deep respect for oneself, starting with what one consumes. Diet, for example, plays a fundamental role in our health, as Hippocrates pointed out: “Let food be thy medicine.” Today, studies show how closely linked emotions, diet, gut microbiota, hormones and vitality are. The body and mind work together, in symbiosis. It is no coincidence that our digestive system is nicknamed the “second brain”.
Our health section offers accessible content based on the latest scientific advances to help you better understand common conditions, whether chronic, acute or emerging. Alongside conventional medicine, complementary approaches such as herbal medicine, aromatherapy and naturopathy have their place in a preventative approach and holistic integrative healthcare. Rather than masking a symptom, complementary medicine seeks to strengthen the body’s natural defences, identify the root causes of the imbalance, and support vital functions over the long term.
It has now been proven that a healthy lifestyle can significantly reduce the risk of developing chronic diseases (diabetes, high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, etc.). Integrative health involves simple steps that should be adopted from an early age:
A healthy lifestyle not only helps to prevent certain diseases, it can also improve your quality of life when faced with specific situations such as the menopause, bone health or immune system function.
It is natural to worry about your health. But when concerns become excessive, intrusive or a source of distress, it is important to be aware of this. Hypervigilance about one’s body, constant fear of illness, or obsessive seeking of reassurance may reflect an emotional imbalance that needs to be addressed. There are many nuances between temporary worries and deeper disorders. Recognising and understanding these states allows us to manage them better, particularly through approaches to complementary medicine focused on listening to oneself, relaxation, and energy rebalancing.
At Soin et Nature, we believe that sustainable health is built day by day, through a balanced lifestyle, informed choices and a better understanding of oneself. Our articles, written by health professionals, support you in this process by providing you with clear guidelines for regaining your vitality, enhancing your well-being and adopting complementary medicine solutions tailored to your needs. Your health is in your hands — take care of it, naturally. Find all our advice from naturopaths and integrative health experts on the Soin et Nature blog.
