The importance of Holism

The Uncharted Podcast

Show Notes

Humans are infinitely complex systems.

Parts of our whole are in intimate interconnection.

Yet still - Coaches and PT's attempt to isolate one singular variable in an infinitely complex biological, psychological, sociological organism..

Leaving the client, you, dazed and confused as to why things aren't working.. aren't sustainable.. or can't be replicated.

Our component parts cannot exist independently of the whole, or cannot be understood without reference to the whole..

In this episode - I run through how parts can only be understood in relation to the whole.. demonstrating that you cannot break things down to study them, but instead that everything has to be understood in relation to the whole.
