Japanese people place a high priority on maintaining social harmony and conforming with what we perceive to be mainstream thought and opinion. These social norms present challenges for developing health promotion policies and programs that value individual uniqueness and individual sensibilities about health. To address this challenge, over the past 20 years the author has developed two 'write-and-share' methods - Life-map and WIFY (What Is Important For you) to allow participants to reflect and rediscover their own and one another's feelings about daily life and health. This article summarizes his experiences using these methods and discusses their possible usefulness in other Asian societies.
日本人非常重视维护社会和谐，以及符合我们所认为的主流思想和意见。这些社会规范给制定重视个人独特性和个人健康观念的健康促进政策和项目带来了挑战。为了解决这一挑战，在过去的 20 年中，作者开发了两种“写和分享”的方法——生活图和 WIFY（对你重要的是什么），让参与者反思和重新发现自己和彼此对日常生活和健康的感受。本文总结了他使用这些方法的经验，并讨论了它们在其他亚洲社会中可能的有用性。
