“…5,12 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultural considerations and practices for success in wellbeing programs have been linked to the notion of the lifeworld. 13 For critical sociological theorist Jurgen Habermas, the lifeworld is the communicative and socially acquired shared cultural meanings, social interactions and pre-understandings that shape people's experiences. 14 The lifeworld sits in contrast to the system which is focused on efficiency, outcomes and success.…”

Issue addressedAboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples' holistic concepts of wellbeing are inadequately represented in the health promotion discourse. The aim of this article was to explore what sustains an Aboriginal wellbeing program, to inform critical reflection and reorientation to empower Aboriginal wellbeing approaches in health promotion practice and policy.MethodsAboriginal and non‐Indigenous researchers collaboratively designed a critically framed, strengths‐based research approach with Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Service staff and wellbeing program participants. Data from Individual Yarning (n = 15) with program participants and staff inspired co‐researchers to co‐develop interpretations over two half‐day Collaborative Yarning sessions (n = 9).ResultsCo‐researchers depicted five lifeworld qualities that sustain an Aboriginal wellbeing program: love, connection, respect, culture and belonging. The lifeworld qualities are relational, communicative and involve the dynamics of identity, power and self‐determination.ConclusionsThe five qualities support a lifeworld approach to an Aboriginal wellbeing program, opening communicative and relational opportunities to mediate culturally responsive interactions. The qualities mediated interactions between people in the lifeworld including program participants and coordinators, and systems representatives including health service providers. A lifeworld approach provides a way to empower Aboriginal self‐determination and leadership through embedment of cultural determinants of health in wellbeing programs.So what?Health service providers and policy makers can use lifeworld approaches to guide critical reflection and reorient practice and policy related to Aboriginal health. The lifeworld qualities that encompass this approach in wellbeing programs are communicative and relational, centred on local community voices and co‐produced with community for Aboriginal identity, empowerment and self‐determination.
