The initial public health response to COVID-19 focussing on tinana (physical health) might make us feel temporarily out of balance. Using a Māori model of health and wellbeing, such as Te Whare Tapa Whā, can help us to consider our whole being. This includes our taha hinengaro (mental and emotional wellbeing), taha wairua (spiritual wellbeing), and taha whānau (social wellbeing).
Central to wellbeing from a Māori worldview is the concept of mauri (vitality). Different states of mauri can help to explain different levels of wellbeing. For example, mauri noho (languishing); mauri rere (unsettled), mauri oho (activated); mauri tau (in balance), mauri ora (flourishing).
