Picture

The Maori philosophy towards hauora (wellbeing) is based on holistic health. Te Whare Tapa Wha, a popular Maori holistic health model, represents the four dimensions, or cornerstones, of wellbeing:
  1. Taha Whānau (Family Health) - the capacity to belong, to care and to share.  Connecting with your whanau and community
  2. Taha Tinana (Physical Health) - the capacity for physical wellbeing, growth and development
  3. Taha Hinengaro (Mental Health) - the capacity to think and be aware of your thoughts and emotions.  Positive thoughts attract positive outcomes
  4. Taha Wairua (Spiritual Health) - the capacity for spiritually wellbeing, connecting with your surroundings and with your inner self

Like the four walls of a whare (house), each dimension is equally important in ensuring a person's wellbeing. Should one of the four walls be missing or damaged, a person may become unbalanced and subsequently unwell.
