Opis

Many in our society today consider emotional health as unimportant in their lives. Some even think that getting in touch with their emotions is a sign of weakness that they should not show to others. Alternatively, many feel a constant pressure always to seem happy, to put only their most positive emotions out there for others to see. In fact, emotional health is a multi-dimensional process that requires many skills and affects our health in significant ways. Emotional health has a significant impact on your physical health. When your emotions run out of control, or you allow them to control your behaviors, it can lead to negative consequences, including depression, chronic illness, eating disorders, substance abuse, anxiety, fatigue, and lack of self-care and attention to your overall health.If you want to have emotional health, then you must consistently be aware of and understand your feelings and use various strategies to ensure these do not control your behaviors. Those who are emotionally healthy have many positive characteristics because emotional health is achieved through positivity. It is not enough to say that emotional health is only about being positive, though.
