The Yukon Wholistic Health Network began
with a small group of people in the Yukon who had concern with Health Canada's
new natural health products regulation. The group asked to meet with our local
Member of Parliament to find out more details on how the regulation would affect
access to natural health products in Canada. He suggested that we form a group
to be able to access information more easily. A few days later a small group
gathered at a local restaurant and a network was born - in the meantime the
collective consciousness of wholistic practitioners and supporters in the Yukon
were also ready to form a cohesive network not only to address the government
concerning wholistic health but to celebrate and support one another with
education, networking and sharing.

YWHN Mission
The YWHN will actively
network with others to increase public awareness and access to wholistic health,
wellness and healing options through communication, education and advocacy.
Mutual education and support among collaborating health, wellness and healing
practitioners and supporter-members will be encouraged through visionary applied
research and organizational development.
YWHN Vision
The YWHN sees a Yukon and
global community where health, wellness and healing promoting choices are made
by individuals and communities that are knowledgeable about wholistic
options.
Networks of committed
people are actively working toward healing the planet and all of the people
while operating from their own truth and higher wisdom.
Healthcare is
comprehensive and includes the integration of affordable wholistic options for
prevention of illness and injury, health promotion and treatment. These options
support personal responsibility and healthy choices.
Information, services and
supports are accessible to all who need them and are provided within a sense of
collective responsibility for healthy environments.
There is provision of a
range of health options through collaboration across disciplines as well as
policy and programs.
The Yukon is known

visionary leadership in health, wellness and healing; and the pristine and
beautiful environment.
