Conclusion
extinct, some others are still living.
Our life is a result of the continuous
coevolution and adaptation since
3.8 billion years ago. All life is
related and it is made of connected
systems which follows a behavioral
pattern repeated in different scales,
these behaviors will defne the
wholeness of the lif.e In addition
referring to the etymology of the
word health, it has the roots the
old English hl which means
wholeness, a being whole, sound
or well, from Proto-Germanic
*hailitho, from PIE *kailo- whole,
uninjured, of good omen.

According to the systems theory,
each system has three properties;
the wholeness, Connectedness
and feedbacks.
The world is connected. Everything
is connected to everything. This
is the principle of design for
health. Everything we design is in
relationship with everything and
this means that can alter the state
of the system, thus the health.

Returning to health defnitions, health
is the ability to adapt and manage
themselves in front of the social
physical and emotional challenges,
and then health is a state of balance,
an equilibrium and integration that
an individual has established within
himself and between himself and
his social and physical environment.
Health is also a relative factor, some
one maybe seems unhealthy and ill to
us, but he or she doesnt feel in that
way, and is integrated very well in his
social community.
Health is also our perception of the
inclusion...
