Focus on Vibrant Health

Emotional and physical health are inseparable, parts of one whole health. There are 5 perspectives that can help to understand the importance of emotions. We have already discussed four of them. The first is to recognize and address stress in your life. The second perspective is your attitude; be optimistic. The third is to value your social connections; have at least a few good friends you can count on. The fourth is the importance of purpose, expressing the unique contribution you have to offer. Today is about a fifth perspective that affects your emotional/physical health – happiness.

Happiness

Happy people tend to have fewer health problems and longer lives. Happiness can be described as a sense of purpose and well-being. There are three common ways people find happiness: helping others; enjoy doing things you’re good at; and doing things that are good for you.

If you feel healthy, are living a life that reflects your values and spiritual beliefs, and making time for activities that you find fun, you are likely to feel happier. Happiness, like any aspect of wellness, is a constant work in progress.
