What are the four quadrants to health?
The four quadrants of health originated from an eastern medicine approach of viewing a person as a whole. YWC tailored this approach and designed the Four Quadrants to Health as a simple holistic model approach to support and enhance one’s well-being. The four quadrants YWC uses are: Mechanical, Chemical, Energetic, and Psychological / Spiritual. Mechanical health is the body’s structural system including bones, muscles, nervous system; Chemical health is body chemistry, physiology, and nutritional aspects, the Energetic quadrant is the body’s vital force or subtle life energy; and the Psychological / Spiritual quadrant is our connection with our emotions and higher self. Each quadrant is interrelated and interconnected to the other quadrants.
