Global Healing: Traditions Around the World

Healing knowledge has traveled across borders long before modern medicine existed. Global Healing explores how different cultures have developed unique medical traditions shaped by environment, belief, and lived experience.
This book takes readers across continents to understand how communities approach health, balance, and recovery. From plant-based remedies and ritual practices to movement, diet, and preventive care, each tradition reflects a deep relationship between people and place. The focus is not comparison, but comprehension—why certain practices emerged and how they continue to serve communities today.
Rather than romanticizing tradition, the narrative places cultural healing in context. Scientific inquiry, safety, and adaptation are woven throughout, showing how global knowledge can inform modern care when evaluated thoughtfully.
Key exploration areas include:
• Diverse healing traditions across cultures
• Cultural context behind medical practices
• Shared principles across global systems
• Science-informed understanding of tradition
• Respectful integration of global knowledge
Global Healing broadens the view of medicine, revealing how wisdom from around the world contributes to a richer, more inclusive understanding of health.
