It was a rare exception when emotional experience also played factor to your health condition. There is now solid science behind the correlation of emotional experience and a host of diseases and health conditions including heart disease, depression, obesity and chronic pain. When looking at the body as a whole, emotional experience now plays a significant part in your overall health. Fatigue and stress have been seen as culprits in hindering your health.
  • A Consideration Of Mental Health - Mental health is a term thrown about a lot -- true particularly over the last few decades -- but the full meaning of mental health is typically overlooked. When casual discussions of mental health occur, the focus is often on serious mental disorders: schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, sociopathic behavior, and even Alzheimer's. What's left out in such conversations is that mental health is a factor is all of our lives: every one of us. The emphasis when considering mental health is usually about disorder.

The first is that many people who actually do have mental disorders don't get diagnosed.
  • Type D Personality? - We have all heard of Type A personality types, but have you heard about Type D, or distress, personality?

Denollet noticed that some patients with extensive cardiac problems were optimistic and went through rehabilitation enthusiastically, while others, who had only mild problems were more pessimistic and did not follow rehabilitation activities well. Denollet was interested in the why of this.

Looking after your state of mind is as important as taking care of your body. But most people neglect their emotional health and only pay attention to their physical health. Emotional health and wellbeing is about how we feel, think and behave.
  • The Benefits of Sharing A Meal with Someone - We focus a great deal on what to eat, when to eat and how to eat. But do you know that eating with someone is just as important as what you eat? In our fast-paced, hectic world, families are finding fewer moments for meals together and they are missing out on an opportunity to feed the body both physically and emotionally.
  • Top Ten Ways of Moving Through Anger - Our culture makes anger a dirty word. Yet, it is an emotion that deserves attention. Because it has not received the proper attention, it is responsible for coming out "all wrong" and come out it will. The way to manage anger is by recognizing it as a valid emotion with a purpose. Next time you are angry, look at it as a form of information that has a message for you. Determine the message and act in a way that satisfies the message with self-respect and respect for others.

  • How Happy Are You? - Our lives have gotten busier, the cost of living has increased and there's the daily stress of living during wartime. But it seems that we haven't let this get us down. A recent study by the Laugh Doctor, Cliff Kuhn, has found that 56% of us feel happier today than we did ten years ago. The results may seem a bit paradoxical. On the one hand 73% of the respondents engaged in conversations with strangers throughout the day, sharing insights, jokes and observations.
