Abstract:
Yangsaeng (nurturing life) is a concept, emerging alongside the interests in well-being and a prolonged life span, that exists in many East-Asian countries. The concept of Yangsaeng was originally derived from Daoism (Taoism in modern Chinese), which emphasizes the way of cultivating mind and body. This concept analysis aimed to clarify the meaning and attributes of Yangsaeng using Roger's evolutionary method from various disciplines. By exploring its common use in the literature, a comprehensive definition of Yangsaeng nursing was developed. By modernly reinterpreting the theories and practical needs of Yangsaeng , it is possible to respond realistically to the prevention and treatment of modern people's psychological stress and physical illnesses.
