MY BODY MY HEALTH

There are five (5) dimensions of health: physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, and social. These five (5) dimensions of health provide a full picture of health as a change in any dimension affects the others.

But focus on physical health, spiritual and social health has had the most impact to me as a result of taking MBMH.

A decline in physical health can result in a decline in other forms of health. Mental health often is linked to or includes emotional health. An increase in mental health can come as a result of increased physical activity, and good mental health can then lead to an increase in self esteem as mental performance improves. Greater self esteem then leads to more confidence in social situations and can lead one to ask the larger questions about life leading to increased spiritual health.The relationship between emotional and mental health is clear and as such some illnesses relate to both, such as: depression and anxiety.Spiritual health relates to our sense of overall purpose in life.A person who has purpose to life is said to be healthier than those who don’t see a purpose to life.

Spiritual health will very easily affect emotional and mental health as having a purpose in life can help regularly around their spiritual purpose, which helps to improve their social health.Good social health includes not only having relationships but behaving appropriately within them and maintaining socially acceptable standards. The basic social unit of relationship is the family, and these relationships impact a persons life the most. Other key relationships are close friends, social networks, teachers, and youth leaders.A bad social life can lead a person to question their purpose in life or feel isolated and unwanted. Such feelings can demotivate people from physical activity and lead them towards depression.

Mostly once MBMH is over,I’ll carry out as a champion of health and wellness applying health dimensions and bringing others on board, who knows I may end up having my health and wellness centre.

Since physical health affects all the other dimensions directly.focusing on improving physical health leads to a general improvement of health and wellbeing. my adapted routine exercise early in the morning and later in the evening for at least 20minutes each, will improve my physical wellness thus an increased mental activity, leading to general wellbeing.getting to bed at 10 o’clock and up at 5 o’clock gives me an opportunity to improve my productivity and maintain my exercise schedule.

I would love to pursue mental health related health topics since I believe majority of people have mind related issues which are either uncovered or they suffer in silence.
