健康環 (Circle of Wellness)
地方性遺產

對美國原住民而言,圓圈是一個重要的符號。它代表了四季、天堂及大地、宇宙及生命的循環。健康環團體透過協助猶他州的美國原住民接受良好教育、經營生意及成為他們所在社區的良好成員,達到維持、保存美國原住民印地安人的傳統的背後動機。

猶他州境內住有32,000餘位美國原住民他們想要記住他們的特有歷史及傳統,而這也是他們創辦特殊文化中心的原因,他們想要透過它來保存這些傳統及結合猶他州境內的美國原住民社區。這個中心所選擇的標誌:圓圈,是一個好的象徵,因為圓圈也代表了心靈、身體、精神及情緒等方面的健康,及社群的完整性。


The circle is an important symbol for Native Americans. It represents the four seasons, the heavens and the earth, the universe, and the cycle of life. The idea behind the Circle of Wellness organization is to keep Native American Indian traditions alive, while helping Native Americans in Utah get a good education, start businesses, and become satisfied members of their community.

More than 32,000 Native Americans live in Utah. They want to remember their native history and traditions, which is why they created a special cultural center to preserve these traditions and unite the Utah Native American community. The circle was a good symbol to choose for this center because a circle also stands for mental, physical, spiritual and emotional health and the wholeness of a community.
