It also significantly influences our physical health, including indirectly \u00a0through our lifestyles, the main cause of chronic diseases, which now represent 75 percent of global healthcare expenses. Despite the fact that mental health is a major public health problem with huge costs for societies and that effective treatments exist, access to treatments is very low: in rich countries, less than a third of people who suffer from mental illness receive treatment and care. Mental health should be made a public health priority as part of a new integrative medicine paradigm that considers all the dimensions (physical, emotional, mental, spiritual) and the determinants (social, environmental) of health, and integrates conventional medicine with complementary therapies.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Politics of Being : An agenda for action series<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Politics of Being is a deep but not ethereal vision.
