Embodied Experiences: Reorienting Health Communication via Chinese Culture
People experience, engage, and interact with their living world not as disembodied minds, but as embodied beings and motivated actors. The fifteen contributions gathered in this special issue collectively mirror the essential terrain of embodied health experiences in the Chinese context. The collective findings move the field beyond merely describing cultural differences to demanding a fundamental re-theorization of core communication concepts and the adoption of new interdisciplinary methodologies.
