Abstract:
Narrative is the cornerstone of interpersonal relationships and life safety. However， its important value in daily life， school education， health management， personal happiness， career development， and other aspects has been ignored. The narrative ecology of families， schools， hospitals， workplaces， and elderly care institutions is worrying， the narrative connection between parent-child and intergenerational is broken， the narrative nature of adolescents is ignored， the narrative demands of patients are neglected， narrative relationships in the workplace are indifferent， and the narrative capital of the elderly is idle. These issues have resulted in serious social problems， such as depression and suicide among adolescents， conflicts between doctors and patients， workplace and life burnout among middle-aged people， and the inability of the elderly to achieve healthy aging， which have become a “stumbling block” to the realization of holistic health. Advocating the construction of narrative ecology and interpersonal narrative connections is an important measure of achieving holistic health. Taking the “narrative concept” as the overall framework， and based on the research， education， and practice carried out by the Alliance of Narrative Medicine in Higher Education Institutions， this paper proposed that actively build China’s narrative system of life and health， to enable narrative play an active and dynamic role in the construction of narrative ecology in different spaces， such as the families， the schools， the hospitals， the workplaces， and the elderly care institutions， as well as practically improve the quality of life of the people.
