In today’s world, we often ignore the importance of doing mentally well. As long as things are fine externally we ignore the fact that we need to be healthy and mentally fit. Mental health is something much more than the absence of mental disorders. Mental health is an integral part of health; indeed, there is no health without mental health. Mental health is determined by a range of socioeconomic, biological and environmental factors.

Mental health is an integral and essential component of health. Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. Mental health and well-being is something in which an individual realizes his or her abilities. They realise that they can cope with the normal stresses of life, can work productively and can make a contribution to their community.

Mental health is fundamental to our collective and

individual ability puts Yash Birla.

Only when we are doing mentally well do we humans think, emote, interact with each other, earn a living and enjoy life. On this basis, the promotion, protection and restoration of mental health can be regarded as a vital concern of individuals, communities and societies throughout the world.

Well-being is a positive outcome. It is meant for good living conditions that include housing, employment. Tracking these conditions is important for public policy. However, many indicators that measure living conditions fail to measure what people think and feel about their lives, such as the quality of their relationships, their positive emotions and resilience, the realization of their potential, or their overall satisfaction with life.

Well-being is useful in disease prevention and health promotion. Yash Birla says that it is associated with numerous health, job, family and economically related benefits. Higher levels of well-being are associated with decreased risk of disease, illness, and injury; better immune functioning; speedy recovery and increased longevity. Individuals with high levels of well-being are more productive at work and are more likely to contribute to their communities.

Health is more than the absence of disease; it is a resource that allows people to realize their aspirations, satisfy their needs and cope with the environment to live a long, productive, and fruitful life. In this sense, mental health enables social, economic and personal development fundamental to well-being. Health promotion is the process of enabling people to increase control over and improve their health. Environmental and social resources for mental health and well-being that is necessary are peace, economic security, a stable ecosystem, and safe housing. Individual resources can include physical activity, healthful diet, social ties, resiliency, positive emotions, and autonomy. Overall health promotion activities aimed at strengthening such individual, environmental and social resources may ultimately improve well-being.
