Balancing Health and Recognizing Change. Content Warning.
Health is so relevant, it's irrelevant. Who cares?
Health is an important topic. Yet, its ubiquitous prevalence in everyday life allows the topic to be overlooked, undermined, and oftentimes ignored. When it comes to health, many people read "physical health": build muscle, eat healthy, sleep early, and exercise. While physical health is essential for survival and is the embodiment of your internal and external structure, another crucial element, mental health, is just as important as physical health. Recognizing the impacts on mental health caused by daily stressors is critical, as it affects emotions, feelings, cognitive abilities, and decision-making skills. In a short sentence, both physical and mental health are the essential building blocks that make up your unique traits and who you are.
