WHAT IS CHANWUYI LIFESTYLE MEDICINE
Professor Suiyin Agnes Chan at the Chinese University of Hong Kong has developed the Chanwuyi Lifestyle Medicine Program, and she has conducted empirical research on this program since 2007. The program was designed based on the traditional Chinese Chan medical concept and incorporated the conventional psychological intervention approach. Thus, it is an eastern-western integrative lifestyle medicine program.
The Chinese Chan medical concept consists of the four core elements, coincidentally similar to the western lifestyle medicine. That is, diet, exercise, stress management and emotional well-being. However, the Chinese Chan has its unique elements within the four core elements of lifestyle medicine.
