Eastern influences have been shown to positively affect outcomes in many areas of western medicine. Recent evidence based research validates these age old approaches used globally for thousands of years. So too, in psychiatric treatment and psychosocial recovery as, we aim to partner with clients in their search for meaning and purpose, social connectedness and reintegration into the community utilizing eastern concepts and approaches expands our clinical repertoire and enhances our work with those we serve. This presentation will introduce several of these eastern concepts and their correlations with integral psychosocial approaches. It will also present evidence based research on effective mind-body practices to highlight the momentum in the field of psychiatric recovery and the value of a more integrated and comprehensive approach to psychosocial rehabilitation.
