How Health Education in Schools Prepares Future Generations

How you feel affects your daily life and how you take on the world. The state of your mind-body influences how you engage in activities, relationships, and career. Achieving physical, mental, and emotional wellness is something most people continue to yearn for. For some, reaching this state of happiness and health can feel elusive, especially as life stresses come up and not-so-great events unfold.

A Brighter Outlook

A Brighter Outlook

Those with a resilience to life will be able to cope with adversity better, and are more able to overcome road bumps faster. When bad things happen, it can make us look at the world in a more negative light. However, the more we can hold onto positive emotions and have gratitude for what we have, the more aptly we can continue to have a brighter outlook on life and what’s to come.

Parasympathetic System

Everyone will stress out here and there. Stress isn’t always a terrible thing, as it gives us a burst of energy when we need it the most. But, if stress lingers in our body for too long, we can start to become on high-alert for danger and our parasympathetic nervous system will struggle to calm us down. Learning how to respond to stress can increase resilience, and empower people since they’ll know how to manage it.

Quality of Slumber

Quality of Slumber

Getting sufficient and quality sleep is something many people struggle with. With our daily lives being filled with bills, stress, work, and other responsibilities, it’s no wonder we find it challenging to unwind and drift off into sleep at the end of the day. A racing mind about the past, present, or future can hinder our ability to have deep slumber. If we can improve the quality of our sleep, then the body has the rest it needs to tackle what may come our way.

Coping with Loss

At some point in our lives, we will encounter loss. Whether that be through the ending of a relationship, the passing of a loved one, or dreams that have shattered. There is no correct or incorrect way to mourn. Grieving loss can feel overwhelming, and most need support from friends and family to get through it. Remember, there is no shame in seeing a therapist for added support during particularly difficult times.
