To flourish, we rely on 4 interdependent systems of health

Without environmental health—clean air and water, nutrient-rich soil, etc.—our physical health suffers.

Physical health supports social health: when we feel good physically, we can support one another.

Conversely, when our social structures are set up in overly draining and pressured ways, physical and mental health suffer as a result.

Why Interdependent Health?

Health and wellness are hot topics these days, but they tend to center around individual action. Focusing on the individual can be empowering, and it’s an important step in our health. And the next step is to highlight the impact of our environment and social structures on our individual health and the health of our communities.

We each have different degrees of access to health. By raising awareness of how our own health is intimately connected to the health of all beings on earth, may we recommit ourselves to the cause of mutual flourishing—supporting all beings to be happy and healthy.
