Abstract
A Body-Mind-Spirit paradigm is proposed as an overarching framework for re-energising healthcare provision and for maintaining its compassionate focus. It is suggested also that a relationship-based person-centred approach can assist the practitioner to provide more optimal healthcare – and promote perinatal mental health. Single discipline conceptual models from philosophy, anthropology, biology and psychology relevant to these fields are outlined and current examples from Perinatal Psychiatry highlighted to illustrate the benefits of an integrative approach.
