Emotional Health
Are you emotionally healthy?
Do you feel positive and enthusiastic about yourself and your life? How well do you manage your feelings? How well do you deal with stress? How are your relationships with others? Are you able to view challenges as opportunities for learning and growth?
Emotional health means being able to maintain a positive attitude, high self-esteem, and a strong self-image despite the ups and downs of life. When you are emotionally well, you have the ability to respond resiliently to the flow of life every day, and the ability to react to a variety of situations realistically. Emotional wellness also means being willing and able to learn more about yourself, to be able to take responsibility for your own behavior, and see how your behaviors affect your feelings.
