A refers to a woman who assists, by traditional practices, women during gestation, birth, and reproductive life, aside of the formal health care system. Their practice, is considered a key ancestral cultural component in marginalized communities in Colombia. A comprehensive description of the essence of Colombian is currently missing, and this practice is facing the loss of its body of knowledge. Here, we describe the essence of being a Colombian . Eight participated in phenomenological interviews and body maps focused on their embodied conscious experience of being a in Colombia. Seventeen general meaning units were identified and grouped in three embodied components (Head, Heart, and Hands) related to practice, knowledge, feelings, perceptions, context, and culture. We discuss philosophical reflections and implications of knowing other's world perspectives, describing a sensitive triad central in the practice.
“A”指的是在正规医疗保健系统之外，通过传统方式在孕期、分娩及生殖期协助女性的女性。她们的做法被视为哥伦比亚边缘化社区重要的祖传文化组成部分。目前尚缺乏对哥伦比亚“A”本质的全面描述，且这种做法正面临知识体系流失的问题。在此，我们描述成为一名哥伦比亚“A”的本质。八名“A”参与了现象学访谈和身体图谱绘制，重点是她们在哥伦比亚作为“A”的身体意识体验。识别出17个一般意义单元，并将其归为与实践、知识、情感、认知、背景和文化相关的三个身体组成部分（头部、心脏和双手）。我们讨论了解他人世界观的哲学思考及影响，描述了“A”实践中的一个关键敏感三元组。
