We Organized our first citizens' group for studying an maintaining health in September, 1970,which now has developed into 13 branches all over Japan. The aims of these self-help groups include : 1) Integration of excessive and unorganized medical knowledge from the holistic, psychosomatic standpoint, 2) most appropriate application of medical knowledge to individuals on the basis of their dispositions, personalities and environmental factors, and, 3) Facilitation of self-management of health by educating the general public.Three cases were presented to demonstrate how the self-help groups were working. We find our approach useful and effective because it can make the best of potentials hidden in these healthy groups, facilitate self-reflection by individuals' participating in the groupw an help them realize their responsibility for the fellow citizens. Since 1976 the Ministry of Education has starte rendering aid to our activities. Similar groups are carried out by psychosomaticians in Australia and Germany. A symposium on this topic will be held at the Congress of the International College of Psychosomatic Medicine in Kyoto, September 5-9,1977.
