The Inheritance and Development of Chinese Narrative Medicine Practice to the Philosophical Wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine

Starting from the inheritance and promotion of Chinese life philosophy and traditional Chinese medicine wisdom by Chinese narrative medicine practice, this paper discusses the inheritance and echo relationship between the “close textual reading ability” in Chinese narrative medicine practice and the “four diagnoses” in traditional Chinese medicine wisdom, narrative mediation and the “mind-body holistic philosophy” in traditional Chinese medicine, and narrative wisdom and Dao Sheng in Chinese life philosophy. Meanwhile, by analyzing the stories of contemporary doctors’ practice of narrative intelligence, this paper expounds that Chinese narrative medicine is a new model of medical education and clinical practice based on the absorption of Chinese traditional life wisdom and the essence of traditional Chinese medicine culture, and the integration of western narrative medicine concepts. It also advocates Chinese scholars to actively build the discipline of “narrative traditional Chinese medicine,” constantly translate the academic achievements to foreign countries, and create a good narrative ecology of traditional Chinese medicine.
